Programming creates Beliefs,
Beliefs create Attitudes,
Attitudes create Feelings,
Feelings determine Actions,
Actions create Results.

Great! So how do I change my thinking or programming? Obviously you can� �t do it by thinking you have to change your programming, but how? The answer I found was in a book I have been studying, The Law of Attraction by Michael Losier, who defines an affirmation as � �A statement that through the act of repetition, becomes implanted in your mind and reprograms your thinking.� � That� �s what I want, so how do you design that affirmation to get the thinking that will bring you the results you desire? Answer: use the Law of Attraction to deliberately create what you want.

The Law of Attraction is one of those things that you instinctively know is true, but you can� �t fully explain. It is best demonstrated by smiling at everyone: they all smile back; but if you scowl at people they turn away and avoid you. Your feelings are attracting similar feelings back. Losier defines the Law of Attraction this way: I attract to my life whatever I give my energy, focus and attention to whether wanted or not. He illustrates this by a cycle that starts with an event in your life; this produces a response that affects your feelings. The Law of Attraction responds to those feelings with more of the same and feeds the cycle.

For many of us, negative thinking and negative words have become ingrained in our minds, but the great news is that � �Habits of thinking need not be forever � � individuals can choose the way they think.� � Martin Seligman, Learned Optimism.
One of the biggest challenges we all face is to get rid of negatives in our speech and replace them with positives. How many times do you hear � �Don� �t� �? � �Don� �t run!� �, � �Dont slam the door! Don� �t worry� �. The sub-conscious only hears � �Run!� �, � �Slam the door!� �, � �Worry!� � How many times have you heard the dentist say � �This won� �t hurt and your mind has said � �This is going to hurt a lot� �?

So learn to use positives. � �Walk!� �, � �Close the door quietly� �, � �Be calm.� � My granddaughter Poppy is a positive, confident child because her mum realises the importance of using positive language with her. So instead of reacting to a situation and reinforcing the cycle, why not deliberately create a good emotion, become more confident and have the assurance of a great result? In The Secret by Rhonda Byrne the Law of Attraction is described as the Genie who says � �Your wish is my command� �. The next challenge is know what you want. Losier suggests you look at what you don� �t want and rephrase that into what you do want. But don� �t dwell on what� �s wrong as that will attract more of what� �s wrong! Once you have rephrased your circumstances away from lack and into abundance, write it down and add emotion to it, so your feelings are excited about the words you repeat to yourself. For an affirmation without emotion is only words; but with emotion it creates good feelings, which will determine your actions and results.

Here� �s the exciting bit! You can create your life on a daily basis. You can be, you can have and you can do whatever you want every single day. All you have to do is get good feelings going and attract your desires into your life. Imagine the Genie grants you 5 wishes a day, what would you ask for? Instead of doing a TO DO List each day of all the tedious tasks you have to get through, why not have a Daily Genie list with all the outcomes you want for that day. After all � �Your wish is my command� �
