Achieving what you want is not difficult, but describing properly what you really want can take some concerted mental and physical effort.  Often, we are too vague or describe what we don’t want – then we’re surprised that we get more of what we don’t want. As you change your words to describe a completed goal with gratitude, as though it is already manifest, you will start to see evidence of that occurring in your life.  To make this a new habit, you will have to practice this behavior repeatedly.

Remember when you learned to ride a bike, drive a car, read, or type?  All of these activities required you to practice and repeat the skills that you were learning every day until they became a habit. I know some people who can type as fast as they can talk due to repeating the behavior over and over. The same is true for any goals that we want to achieve.  We have to review what we want repeatedly in order to attract it into our lives. One of my favorite teachers is a 1920s author named Florence Scovell Shinn. She said “We can’t always control our thoughts, but we can control our words. And, through repetition we impress the subconscious mind and then become masters of any situation.”
