If you are frustrated with the results you're getting with your positive affirmation practice then you'll learn here the secret to why affirmations often fail and how they can powerfully succeed.

To illustrate why the use of positive affirmations can be a challenging and sometimes disheartening experience I will use a simple example. Let's suppose we employ a simple affirmation that is repeated daily such as:

"I am successful in everything that I do today".

The theory is that by repeating this statement regularly it will eventually slip past the conscious barriers of the mind to the unconscious mind where it will ultimately begin to be accepted as truth, rewire the neural synapses and help access the potential inherent in the zero point field, the field of unlimited quantum potential and possibilities thereby helping to shift one's magnetic polarity into the positive range. This will supposedly, though the Law of Attraction begin to draw positive outcomes into one's daily experience.

If this were as simple as it sounds then everyone would be effortlessly creating wonderful life experiences. So why isn't this the case? Well because there is a missing piece of the puzzle that few seem to recognise. What is that, you ask?

Well, it simply ignores the fact that there are also unconscious barriers that block the affirmation from taking root. These barriers consist of the large repertoire of clandestinely held unconscious negative limiting beliefs that, like shields, deflect the affirmation away. That deflection is the reason that an individual has to constantly repeat the affirmation hoping that some day soon it will penetrate those invisible barriers and take effect.

In order to make the affirmations more effective it becomes necessary to eliminate those unconsciously laden barriers permanently. This however requires that those negative limiting beliefs be exposed and eradicated/erased once and for all.

In order to do that one must have an appreciation of where such beliefs actually come from in the first place i.e. from the buried early negative memories that serve as evidence and justification for such beliefs. Such memories and the associated negative limiting beliefs they generate can now be permanently erased from the unconscious mind thereby eliminating their tendency to undermine one's affirmation efforts.

This erasure can be accomplished easily and completely with a new coaching process that you can learn more about by visiting the web link below. There you can also request a free introductory telephone consultation that will begin to make your life flow.
