I wanted to throw the above paragraph in because I think it's super important for us to be aware and take responsibility in life for any of this mini-series to work at all.
All of that being said...Yay!
How to attract positivity into your life part 3 of 3 is here. If you missed Part 1 and Part 2, be sure to check those out before
continuing on.
Now then, let’s get to it.
5. Believe that you
deserve whatever you want.
Sometimes
it’s easy to get down on yourself and stay in the rut of feeling like you just
don’t deserve what you want. Maybe you think you don’t work hard enough, look
good enough, aren’t smart enough, you name it. Insecurities and negativity
spoken over our lives can really put a damper on our belief of deserving what
we want.
My
idea on this process might seem a little backwards but give this a try. I’ll
use myself as an example. Say you (like me) want to make a positive impact on
other people’s lives through motivational and encouraging words and showing
lots of love to your fellow man. Perhaps you haven’t had any special training,
no schooling, and it’s not like you’re a doctor with a clinical psychology
private practice so you may ask yourself what is your expertise. Maybe you’ve
never even really talked that much and when you do others appear as though they
don’t give a rip.
You
are set up to feel like you couldn’t possibly have anything to offer that
people would want. Why bother? Well…I’m here to tell you that you can throw
that thought right out the window! If you have something YOU want to do, there
is no desire police that will stop you (barring illegal desires) from doing it.
J You are the one holding the reigns to your
own life, directing the horse in the direction you want it to go.
When
you give yourself the liberty to believe that
you have the right to go after what you want, regardless of experience,
education, history, etc. you open yourself up to a whole new world of
possibility. Not only will you feel empowered but you will feel inspired to do
what is necessary to reach your goals.
Perhaps
you do need to have that educational degree to practice in a clinical setting.
If this is the case, you must understand this: When you believe that you deserve anything you desire, it is that
preemptive nudge that gets you on the path to earning whatever it is you must
earn, acquiring whatever you must acquire, or learning whatever you must learn
in order to get wherever it is you want to go and be whoever it is you want to
be.
Wow.
What a doozie and a total mouthful, but it is a place to start. The rest will
follow suit of that foundation and fall right into place.
6. Have a plan and work
the plan
Remember
that previous step; believe that you deserve
whatever you want. You must do that before you make a plan and work it.
Essentially this is because if you don’t believe,
you won’t put forth the effort to plan and work towards your goals. You don’t
want to be stuck on the wrong side of that dividing line.
So
now that we believe that we deserve what we want, we go for it baby! We dream,
believe, make plans, follow through with those plans and reach our goals. We
truly will get whatever we want and attract all sorts of positive things into
our lives.
It’s
that simple and that hard. The simple part is knowing what we have to do, the
hard part is actually doing it. That’s always the hard part. But a tire doesn’t
get changed without a little elbow grease. Same as your life doesn’t end up
where you want it unless you stir the wheel and shift the gears. Some of us
live on autopilot; that is the dreadful side of the dividing line you don’t
want to be on.
Tools. You need tools to iron out your dreams. I
love to use Microsoft Word as a tool to make plans. I have tons of ideas
written down (shoot I should make a backup copy again). I have projects that I
want to accomplish outlined and anytime I have an event that I'm in charge of I
make a plan that includes, ideas, needs, times, dates, etc. I get my mind
organized on paper. Maybe that could help you too.
Also,
I use a vision board. I have it hung in a place where I can see it every day. I
include inspirational quotes, pictures of places I want to go, and words of
encouragement. It is a reminder that I can have and do anything I want. It is a
place where positivity is written over me and when I read it, it is spoken over
my life. I am, in essence, convincing myself that I will accomplish my goals.
We all know that once your mind is made up, little can stop you.

We
can all attract positive things and who doesn’t want more positive things in
their life? It’s not that difficult when your mind is in the right place. There
is untold power in your mind. Put it to good use and get all the great things
that your pretty little heart desires! Sometimes life throws us a few
curveballs and of course we have to deal with those surprises appropriately.
However, attracting positivity into your life can be consistent.
Enjoy
Life,
