Phrases That Serve Me

This past year has been a tremendous learning and growing experience for me. I have grown in ways that I never thought possible. I am finding that I am more aware of the negative emotions and can, for the most part, turn myself around and find better feeling ground more quickly now and with much less drama. Thank Goodness!

Abraham is currently emphasizing that what ever you have going on in your experience (the manifestation) is just a temporary indicator of the vibration that you have going on. Even if the manifestation seems HUGE it is only temporary and if you can change your vibration, the manifestation will morph as well.

I have found that the phrases below help me to shift my feelings to a slightly better feeling place. And, it really is all you have to do in order to change the manifestation that you have going on.

Things Always Work Out For Me.

It took me a long time to finally get to this realization. No matter how bad things look in the moment, they really do always work out for me. The sooner that I realize that this is the case, the sooner I am able to get back on the right track. Beating the drum of the “how it is right now” only tends to bring more things into your experience that perpetuated how things are right now.

I Did That.

Oh, another one of those phrases that took me a long time to take full responsibility for. When the good stuff happened, it was great to be able to say that I had a part in making that happen, but when the “bad” stuff happened, THAT had to be someone else’s fault. I have come to realize that the “bad” stuff is also my full responsibility. I have taken a different stance with the stuff that appears that is less than desirable to me. The undesirable stuff is just a clue as to where I was unintentionally or intentionally, in many cases, focusing. That good ole pity party doesn’t get you to where you want to be.

Taking responsibility for everything that happens in my life was a real empowering journey for me. I spent a good part of my life playing the victim card but now I am in charge of my life. *I* am the creator of my experience not some outside force. It really does feel good to have that power.

It’s All Good.

I have come to the realization that no matter what happens in my experience, I can choose to look at it in a positive or a negative way. Now, most of the time, I will try to lean in a more positive direction. When I do, I find that the situation resolves itself much quicker than if I focus on the negative aspects of what is going on. Over the years, I have come to realize that in experiencing some pretty heavy negative contrast, I do come out okay and that I have a much clearer view of what I do want in life. Once I have that clearer view, I know what to now focus on in order to get an improved situation. So, you see, it is really all good. In the midst of negative contrast, it might not appear that way, but given time and some space away from it all, you can find the good aspects in any situation.

It’s Not A Big Deal.

In knowing that everything works our for me and that it is all good, “it’s not a big deal” is easier and easier to say and mean. It helps relieve a bit of the stress that can creep up and sabotage even you best intentions at staying positive under pressure. I frequently modify this phrase into “What’s the big hairy deal?”, a phrase that Abraham is fond of these days. This morphing is accompanied by an image of a Oscar the Grouch and Elmo and with that image, it is more difficult to stay in the grouchy “this stinks” stance for too long.

Are You A Complainer Or A Praiser?

The first time I heard this phrase was during the Abraham-Hicks workshop I attended in October 2007. It is the first time I have heard it and it really struck a chord with me. It is so easy to get caught up in the momentum of thoughts and words but this phrase forces you to take a pause and acknowledge the direction you are going in. Ultimately, you don’t want to be a complainer due to the fact that as you focus on the aspects that you are complaining about, you are doomed to attract more of the same into your experience. If you can change your focus onto something that you can praise or appreciate, you have created a much better future for yourself. I would rather have the better future sooner rather than later. I have spent way too much of my life being dramatic about how things appear in my reality.

I Am Blessed

I have so much to be appreciative in my life. Things always do work out well for me and I have a wonderful family and life. Occasionally I get caught up in the nitty gritty of life and fail to see the bigger picture of how good my life really is. “I am blessed” helps me zoom out to see the bigger, and most often, more accurate big picture of my experience here. I am blessed and love every minute of my life, most of the time .

All of these are just tools to help me come into alignment with who I really am and what I want from this life. The phrases work well for me but I am always on the look out for other phrases that can help me come back into alignment.
