3 Easy Ways Positive Self Talk Helps You Conquer Your Goals

by Ann Rusnak Leave a Comment

Do you feel like you always talk yourself out of success? When you start to set goals for yourself, do you suddenly experience nagging thoughts about how you won’t live up to the task or how you simply aren’t qualified to carry it through?

If you ever experienced either situation, you need to change the way you respond to your inner dialogue. Instead of obeying your negative commands, you can use positive self-talk to counter the negativity and overcome nearly all anxious thoughts.

Setting Goals and Sticking to Them with Positive Self-Talk

Do you initially feel excitement when you first set goals for yourself? Are these thoughts then followed by self-doubt and self-defeating thoughts that stop you in your tracks before you even get started?

It can feel difficult to make the most of your life when you constantly talk yourself out of releasing your inner success. It can feel frustrating and discouraging to have these thoughts constantly plaguing you. Many of us, in fact, don’t even realize we have them! All we know is that we don’t have the confidence to stick to our plans and reach our goals.

Positive Self Talk For Encouragement!

Positive self-talk provides an effective way to set goals and ensure that you stick to them, even if you never did this before. You decide what goal is important to you, and then you plan the logistics of how to attain this goal. When self-doubt starts kicking in, you will respond with effective positive affirmations that prove your success without surrendering to the negative pressure. Since you’re reading this article, it’s clear that you’re no quitter and you’re certainly not a failure, so start believing in yourself!

Re-Programming Your Mind With Positive Self Talk

Effective affirmations are essentially positive statements that re-program your mind for the positive. The moment a self-defeating thought enters your mind, you can counter the negative with a motivating statement. An example of a positive affirmation is: "I choose to believe I am worthy of great success," or "I decide to see myself in the winner’s circle." What this does is replace negativity with thoughts that will help you move toward your goals instead of further away from them.

Positive self-talk is easier to implement than you might think. You may not be aware of the severity of the negative dialogue currently within your mind.

However, once you conscientiously focus on using positive self-talk, you will suddenly realize the ways you self-sabotage your goals from the minute you made them.

This process can open your eyes to exactly how much this inner conversation interfered with your life. You’ll feel hopeful that you can now set goals and surpass them.

Through positive self-talk you can easily set long and short-term goals for yourself. And when you use affirmations, you’ll possess accessible tools to help you push yourself further than ever before. Learning to quiet negativity with positive thoughts is a great move toward setting and attaining future goals with ease.

4 Simple Practices to Create the Abundance You Desire

by Ann Rusnak

Whether you’d like to lose a few pounds, enhance your love life, or make more money, your habits are important. Your current situation is the result of your habits. Habits control what we do and think each day. Habits support your current mindset and beliefs. Your thoughts and actions add up over weeks, months, and years. Your circumstances are the result.

Your current life situation is the result of your habits.Click To Tweet

For example, your physique is the culmination of the eating and exercise habits you’ve had over the last several years. Your financial situation is no different. Your social life is the grand result of your beliefs, attitudes, and actions regarding other people.

Regardless of your objective, you won’t be successful without habits that contribute to that success. By changing your habits, you can create the abundance you desire.

Watch the video from the weekly Thriving Thursday Show to discover 4 Simple Practices to Develop Abundance Bringing Habits. And you will find a summary of these practices below the video

Summary of the 4 Simple Practices to Develop Abundance Bringing Habits.

1. Raise your glass ceiling.

We have a level of abundance that’s challenging to surpass. You might see yourself earning $100,000 per year, but can’t wrap our mind around $500,000. What number seem impossible for you to reach?

If you don’t believe you can do it, you’ll prove yourself correct. Work each day to raise your level of expectation. Visualize earning more than you believe possible. Stick with that image until the resistance melts away. When you can imagine it without feeling uncomfortable, you’re on your way to raising your abundance level.

2. Keep negative thoughts and emotions out of your head.

This is especially important when it comes to earning money and your lifestyle. You can control your thoughts. Negative thoughts lead to negative outcomes. Take a deep breath. Let the thoughts go, and get back to work. It requires practice to stay positive. There’s no time like the present to start practicing.

3. Create a clear goal.

Whether you believe in God, the universe, or yourself as the source of your success, it’s hard to attract what you want if you can’t define it. Know what you want and develop a plan to achieve it.

Make a habit of reviewing your goals daily. Set aside a few minutes twice a day to review and visualize reaching your goals.

4. Provide as much value as possible.

Money is a compact, form of value. You can use it to purchase any item or service. Without money, we’d be trading chickens, goats, milk, and rubies for goods and services. It’s hard to fit a goat in your pocket.

Understand you can’t receive something of value, including money, without providing value in return.
Spend each day brainstorming ways you can help others and charge them for it. You only need one good idea. Once your good idea comes to you, take inspired action to bring it to fruition.

Studies show habits are best changed slowly. Big changes are very difficult to maintain and uncomfortable to even begin. Add a new habit into your life a piece at a time. It might take weeks or even months to have a new habit fully implemented. That’s okay. How many positive habits have you added in the last five years? Slow results are better than none.

Remember to look at the habits that are currently limiting your abundance. Remove them from your life slowly.

Your habits create your environment. Creating effective habits will increase the level of abundance in your life. Avoid being in a rush. Seek to improve slowly, but consistently. Abundance is coming your way.

How to Keep a Wealthy Mindset

by Ann Rusnak

You devote time and energy to develop the mindset to attract the money you desire.

A wealthy mindset encourages you to act each day to improve your life on numerous levels, such as health, wealth, love or anything else you deem important.

The negativity of everyday life can also erode it away. So, it’s important to do something positive daily to keep that mindset as part of your life.

This quote from Zig Ziglar sums it up…

“People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing – that’s why we recommend it daily.”

It's important to do something daily to keep your positive money mindset as part of your life.Click To Tweet

These 6 Techniques Will Keep Your Money Attraction Mindset Intact

1. Study The Actions Of Successful People

One of the best decisions you can make is to use other successful people as your role models. Think about what you admire about these people and then try to model their behavior.

Perhaps this is the most important suggestion. Learn by example. Find someone successful whom you admire and do what they do. Theseindividuals serve as proof that your dreams can come true.

Find someone who has had the same kind of success that you desire.
Study what they’ve done right as well as their mistakes.

It’s always easier when you have an example to follow. Find a way to ask successful people questions. See if you can set up an interview with someone you feel is successful. You may wish to find someone in a similar career so you can study his or her success story.

You’ll also want to study the reasons why they’ve become successful. How do you think they got to where they are? Can you embark on these steps too? Chances are that you can; all you need to do is build up the courage.

You might be surprised to know that successful people love to inspire others to find success as well. They know that there’s plenty of success to go around. That’s the prosperity mindset in action!

2. Keep Your Focus

If you find that your mind wanders from idea to idea, create one set plan and stick to it. In your plan, create a list of specific achievable action steps that lead to your goal, and then work on at least one task each day to help maintain your focus.

3. Plan for Success – Setting Goals And Action Plans

You can dream all day about where you’d like your life to go, but without a goal or an action plan nothing will happen. It doesn’t matter how focused you are if you don’t have a proper plan.

Your financial goals aren’t going to happen just by deciding on a number. Make some clear plans on how you’re going to get there. This will get you past the dream phase so you can start making your ultimate goals a reality.

Take time to think about the big picture and then draw in the lines of how you’re going to get there.

Break down your goals into smaller steps.
Set manageable and achievable goals.
Stick to your plan whenever possible.

Be as detailed in your plan as possible and set each task as a mini-goal in itself. Achieving these small goals on a daily basis keeps you motivated and moving along toward your big goal.

4. Believe In Yourself – It’s All About Being Positive

Unfortunately too many people don’t have confidence in their abilities and they fail to try or give up far too quickly. You don’t have to be one of these people!

Look back at the people you admire and you’ll likely notice that they felt like giving up at some point. But they didn’t! They likely have an unwavering belief in their abilities and a drive to succeed, no matter what.

If you believe in yourself, you can achieve your dreams. The moment you think you can’t do something, you can’t. You know that negative feelings arise from time to time and that’s okay. However, you need to keep a positive image of the big picture in your mind at all times.

Picture yourself reaching your goals and imagine how it feels.
Surround yourself with positive people.
Write prosperity affirmations.
Be an open person.

When you open up to new opportunities, you open up to prosperity. Stay motivated and don’t be afraid of change.

5. Don’t Give Up

Cultivate the dedicated motivation and drive to tell yourself that you’ll stop at nothing before you reach success. When you talk to or study the actions of someone who is successful, they’ll likely tell you tales of their many failures. There were probably times when they felt like giving up, but they were able to push through defeat.

Realize that everyone feels like giving up, but we can’t give in to these feelings.
Keep the image of your goal in your mind.
Make changes if you need to, but continue taking action toward your goal.

6. Get A Mindset Coach or Mentor

Working with a mindset coach is your shortcut to success.

If you feel that you lack any of the core beliefs and are still unsure about whether you can adopt a prosperity mindset, you could always look into getting advice from a coach. They’ll be able to break down your problems and concerns and tailor a plan that will work for you personally.

When you implement these strategies, you’ll gain a renewed prosperity mindset that will help you on your life journey.

Attract Prosperity and Abundance through Intuition

by Ann Rusnak

Can your intuition lead you to business success?

For the past 7 years, I’ve been exercising my intuition muscle and about 95% of what I do is now based on my intuition. I give my head that symbolic "V8 Juice Slap" on the forehead and say why didn’t I do this sooner? My life became incredibly awesome and keeps getting better since honoring my intuition.

Intuition is a tool that all of us have and is one of your greatest assets. This gift from the Universe enables you to see and feel things beyond the ordinary.

We all have that little voice that tries to tell us things from time to time.

As we get older, we often learn to ignore that little voice. We turn to logic and focus on being practical while dismissing decisions given by the heart.

But we’ve experienced a lot over the years, and there is some part of our brain (the subconscious) that has accumulated a tremendous amount of wisdom. Intuition is powerful and connected to your inner wisdom and insight. Listening to that little voice can be a good thing.

When you trust it, your intuition can steer you down a positive path to make wise decisions that can lead to great abundance.

Here are the 5 techniques that I use to connect and develop my intuition.

5 Easy Actions That Develop Your Intuition:

Meditate for a few minutes each day. One characteristic of intuition is that it has a soft voice most of the time. It can be challenging to notice it if our minds are busy with other things. Meditation is a great way to clear the mind and make room for our intuition to come shining through.

A simple technique to clear your mind is to simply count your breaths and attempt to stay focused on your breathing. Avoid letting your mind wander.

Record your dreams. Our dreams can be full of useful information. Many psychologists believe that we work out our challenges in our sleep. It’s difficult for most of us to remember our dreams. Studies show that we average 5 dreams per night, and most of us are lucky to even remember one.

After you get in bed, tell yourself that you want to remember your dreams in the morning. Keep thinking this to yourself until you fall asleep.
Keep a notebook and pen near your bed. A voice recorder can work well, too. As soon as you wake up, start writing. Dreams tend to fade from memory quickly.
Review your dreams and see if there might be any information you can use in your life.

Follow your intuition. The surest way to shut down your intuition is to never follow it. Start using it in situations that have minor importance. It could be as simple as taking a walk and asking yourself which way you should turn at each intersection or fork in the road.

Show your intuition that you’re listening and responding. You’ll be more likely to hear from it in the future.

Relax your mind. Many people find that their best ideas come while their mind is relaxed. Some examples include, while taking a shower or soak in the tub, walking, driving down the highway, mowing the grass, taking a shower, and/or listening to the rain. Think about the times you’ve had great ideas. Try to put yourself in similar situations more frequently.

Keep a journal. Take a few minutes each day to write in a journal. Sometimes, putting things down on paper opens a floodgate of ideas and inspiration. Study what you’ve written. You’re likely to find insights you haven’t considered.

Keep your journals in a safe place, so you’ll feel more comfortable with being honest and thorough.

Being in touch with your intuition can help you identify and solve the challenges in your life that are causing stress. It also releases your imagination and creativity. Your intuition is a great resource, but it’s important to nurture it. Start with smaller things. When your intuition has proven it’s reliable, use it to make bigger decisions.

Your intuition is a tether to your subconscious. It’s your ultimate source of wisdom and creative energy. Make your life easier and richer by utilizing all of your resources.

6 Amazing Actions to Easily Attract Your Goals

by Ann Rusnak

The ability to act from your knowledge might be the most important skill you can possess. You probably already know how to get in great shape, eat properly, find a better-paying job, and succeed in a lot of other ways. The problem is, you’re not doing those things.

What you lack is not enough self-mastery. Self-mastery is about control of the self. Self control through discipline enables you to develop the habit of apply what you know. Without it, you’re just a dusty library of information. Attracting your goals requires apply inspired action.

Develop the mastery necessary to excel in life with these daily actions:

Rest is important. Fatigue is a killer of discipline. Have you ever noticed that your discipline is weakest at night? That’s when you’re more likely to waste time. You’re more likely to eat poorly. You’re more likely to send an ill-advised text message to your ex. If you have a task to complete that requires a focused mind, schedule it when your energy is at its peak.

Get enough sleep each night to be at your best. Plan naps in the afternoon if possible. I’m a big believer in naps.

Exercise. Exercise is good for the development of discipline. Exercising regularly is challenging both physically and mentally. It’s not easy to get yourself to exercise every day. The slight physical discomfort also requires discipline to endure. You also have the benefit of enhancing your health at the same time.
Get organized. Getting and staying organized is another gentle way to build your mastery skills. Start with just one part of your home. Declutter and clean. Then move on to another part of the house. Clutter also saps your discipline and willpower.

If you’re naturally messy, getting organized might be more challenging than you think. Take small steps and avoid losing ground. It doesn’t do much good if you clean a room, and it returns to a messy state in a few days. Stay on top of it!

Learn persistence. It’s questionable if you can have self-mastery without persistence. Fortunately, there are countless opportunities to practice each day. Become a master at completing tasks, even the mundane ones.

Fold all the laundry instead of leaving part of it for later.
Wash all the dishes instead of leaving that gross, greasy dish until tomorrow.
Make your bed in the morning.
Whenever you start to feel a little bored, tired, hungry, or uncomfortable, continue with your current task for at least a few more minutes. You’ve learned how to quit easily. Teach yourself how to persist after you want to stop. Even three minutes is an improvement and a good starting point.

Meditate daily. From a distance, meditation looks easy. After all, how hard can it be to just sit there and focus on your breathing, right? Try it once and see how hard it can be. Meditation teaches focus and the ability to persevere when you’re emotionally and physically uncomfortable.

It’s hard not to think, "How much longer?" when you’re in the middle of a meditation session. Start with just a few minutes and add a few more minutes each week. Ten minutes a day can make a big difference. I hit the snooze on my alarm and use those 10 minutes to meditate before getting out of bed.

Learn to forgive easily. Negative emotions consume a lot of energy and make self-discipline much more challenging. When you’re consumed with negative thoughts, it’s hard to do anything productive. Let go of the negative energy inside of you and you’ll have more self-control.

Self-control is the key to making progress toward mastery. You already know enough. Sometimes, gathering more information is just an excuse to stall because you lack confidence in what you know.

Take the knowledge you already have and put it to work. Learn to do things you don’t necessarily feel like doing. The alternative is to live an unfulfilling life.

Positive Affirmation – I Trust in the Process of Life

by Ann Rusnak

(For greater impact read out loud)

Life is a mysterious and wonderful experience. The process of life might be challenging to fully understand, but I trust in it completely. There is a higher power that guides my life and experiences. I am comfortable with this idea.

I feel a responsibility to do my best to make good and intelligent decisions. However, I also realize that I must let go and flow with my destiny. I know where I am going, and arriving at the right destination is inevitable.

When I am feeling confused, frustrated, or challenged, I remind myself that this is just part of the journey. These challenging emotions are gifts, specifically designed to help me grow into the person I am meant to be.

Letting go and trusting makes my life even easier. I feel light and relaxed when I trust the process of life. My life is more amazing each and every day.

My higher power speaks to me and gently shows me the way. My only obligation is to listen to that voice and make the right decisions.

I am open to the great plans that the universe has in store for me. I grow more excited each day, waiting to see how my life unfolds.

Today, I am free of struggle and uncertainty. I feel confident that my life is on the right path. I trust the process of life.

Inner-Reflection Questions:

In what ways do I struggle unnecessarily?
How can I be more accepting of my life and the path that I am on?
What wonderful things has life brought me so far?

I Trust My Instincts

by Ann Rusnak

(For greater impact read out loud)

I follow my instincts. I rely on both my feelings and thinking to make important decisions.

My instincts reflect my knowledge and experience. I take advantage of what I have learned and the challenges I have overcome.

My instincts help me when I need to make quick decisions. When there is little time to consult experts or research a topic, I can take action based on my own insights.

To tap into my instincts, I slow down and relax.

I listen to what is going on inside of me. I pay attention to nonverbal signs. My physical responses and sense information provide me with essential clues. I give in to my curiosity and gather information with an open mind.

Sometimes I sleep on a difficult dilemma. I often wake up with answers that amaze me.

There are some areas where my intuition is especially strong. I count on my hunches when I am confident in my expertise.

Instinct guides me in addressing my deepest needs. I give my body the food and exercise it requires. I follow the spiritual practices that pacify my mind. I welcome people into my life who share their love and friendship with me.

My instincts and conscience work together. I choose actions that bring me peace of mind.

Today, I connect with my intuitive side. I draw on my feelings as well as facts and analysis. My instincts guide me along the path to fulfillment.

Inner-Reflection Questions:

How does it feel to listen to my inner voice?
How doI balance instincts and reasoning?
What is one example of how following a hunch paid off for me?
