Positive Mahantra

Here are a few simple steps to consider taking as you start your day. First and foremost begin with the anticipation that this will be a special and fruitful day. You could begin your morning routine by stating to yourself, out loud if you wish, “Today is going to be a great day and each and every experience it holds will move me forward in a better way.”

Begin with something simple, positive and easy to remember. In a couple of weeks or more of using this positive reinforcement, you could add something along the lines of: “I am meant to gain knowledge and prosper from this information which in turn will push me towards my intended path.”

Reaffirm your montra (or more formally Mahantra) at least daily and stay focused on these words regardless of how you “feel” your day is progressing. Do not allow negativity to linger or affect your conscious effort to focus on all that is positive. If you find yourself swaying a little because of the mind’s interference or an interaction with someone that pulls you in a different direction, do not become discouraged. In the beginning, it is difficult to stay focused and finding yourself off track will certainly be likely. It gets easier and you will find that as time passes, you will encounter fewer obstacles and the challenges, although some may be intense, will be easier to handle. As with any exercise, you must practice to make perfect. With repeated exercise, the task become easier and soon will be habit. Simply reaffirm your positive montra when you find you are faltering. Do not overly identify with the misleading thoughts. Recognize them as such and let them go.

During your day, treat everyone you encounter and each of your experiences with an open heart and with the patience understanding that your life is an ongoing story. Assistance is always available during trying lessons. Life always has difficult lessons and your attitude will sometimes be less than desirable, but remember, you are always in control of your response. You will only be swept astray if you allow yourself to be.

Have faith in the process, and believe you can do whatever you set your mind to do. Do not allow yourself to become overwhelmed with what you see as a failure. This apparent failure is to be expected as you are training your mind and expectations for the day in a new and refreshing direction. You will slowly begin to feel different about your attitude towards events in your life. You will find that life will begin to unfold with a brighter and a more pleasant outcome. People will begin to notice the changes taking place in your life and they will automatically gravitate to you, as you now express more positive energies. In turn, you will draw even more positive energies to you as we attract what we put out.

You can create a positive, more fulfilling life. Tell yourself this. Do not just believe in this; KNOW this! It will take hard work, but what have you got to lose? Stay strong. Be persistent and know that you are in control every step of the way. “I CAN DO THIS!”
