You are doing great! Remember the seed. You don’t dig a seed up every day to see if it is growing right. Just keep watering it.

Keep feeding your brain with your positive words and affirmations. You will be amazed at the results. (I am seeing results).

Today’s Affirmation is:

Now don’t forget you need to obey your brain’s new commands with ACTION.

The formula for success is:

Respond to those new ideas and opportunities! Your actions need to follow your words.

Let’s repeat it again:

One word jumps out at me from this affirmation:

It is the word strong.
A strong person is also a determined person right?

• It takes determination to stay strong in challenging times.
• It takes determination and strength to keep your focus on your goals and dreams when challenges arise.
• It takes determination to pay no attention to the scoffing and negative comments that you may hear around you.

Yes you are a Champion (see Day 1).

So let’s declare this (plus the first 3 affirmations) with a bold confident voice today/

And I KNOW you are because:

Today is Day 4/ Tomorrow is: Day 5 Words And Your Health

Here are 3 action steps that will get your day started in a successful direction:

Gratitude
Gratitude is a very powerful motivational emotion.

When you take a few moments to be thankful for at least three things every morning, you will certainly get started on the right path for the day.

Gratitude will always create a positive shift in your mindset.

We have a LOT to be thankful for right?
I am always thankful for:

• Health, strength and the resources that enable me to take another step forward towards achieving my life dreams and goals.
• A relationship with a friend who “sticks closer than a brother”, who always believes in me and will never leave me. Proverbs 18:24
• All my basic needs are taken care of.

What three things in your life are on the top of your “gratitude list”?

Your Why, and Daily Goals.
I am learning to follow the example of John Di Lemme’s and read my “WHY card” every morning. This is great to set the focus for the day.

I highly recommend that you develop this habit. It certainly gives you a MAJOR reason to get out of bed enthusiastically every morning, and sets the pace for a great day.

This exercise will completely annihilate the early morning mindsets that so many people have. You know the “I have not had my coffee yet, so I am not awake” or the “oh my, another day at the office” mindsets.

When you are focused on your why, these old mindsets are gone!

Do you have your WHY written down? Do you have it on a card where it is always within your reach to look at?

It will make a difference in your life if you do!

Affirmation and Self Development
Based on your why and your goals, make a declaration or affirmation that will set you on the path for a successful day.

For example:
If your WHY includes public speaking, you might affirm something like this:

Today my mind is clear and focused and my communication skills are better and better every day.

I am laser focused and will be an inspirational influence on everyone I contact today.

(If you are preparing to be a public speaker you certainly want to be a motivational and inspirational influence on people.)

Now pick up the motivational or inspirational book you are reading and read another chapter. (You ARE reading a non fiction book right?) A chapter or even a few verses from the Bible would also give you direction and inspiration for the day!

Put on an mp3 (CD) or mp4 (DVD) of an inspirational speaker such as John Di Lemme (you can download some great free motivational mp3s here), Tony Robbins, John Rohn, Jesse Du Plantis.

Self development is an essential part of your daily schedule as you move towards fulfilling your dreams and goals.
