These two words are the most powerful words you can use in a statement. Another word for I am is OM. These words translated actually mean God. They are words of declaration. When you use the words I am... you are telling the universe how it is. The universe hears these words and makes it truth in your life. Think of all the times you use this statement and what you put behind it.
I was sitting with a friend over coffee and listening to her talk. She was telling me about how her and her husband want to start trying to get pregnant with their first baby. I responded "Oh that's so awesome!" She immediately looked at me with a distraught look in her eye and said "But I am so scared! I am on all these medications because I am so depressed. I am so worried that if I quit taking my medications I am going to go crazy!" So just in that one statement she declared to the universe that I am...scared, crazy and depressed.
I asked her to stop and to think about that. Then I asked her to start making statements of what she does want in life instead. So we re-write that conversation. I say "Oh that's so awesome!" She then responds, "I know I am so excited! I am really working on my health and starting to feel great. I am exercising and eating healthy and I am looking forward to this next step in our life!"
I want people to start realizing their power. It takes one second to change your focus and it is a choice. Pay attention to how you are using these words and begin saying things like I am...filled with joy, beautiful, strong, fit, blessed, smart, wealthy, successful, loved, etc. You will start to see your life shift!
