Using Power Affirmations is similar to psychological horticul-
ture. Weeds will grow anywhere without attention. By using this af-
firmations technique, you tend your mental garden, eliminating
the weeds and bringing forth the fruit that you most prefer.
It is impossible to solve your financial problems with money. If
you have a money mind-set that produces financial problems and
you should happen to get more money without changing the mind-
set, then pretty soon you will have the same financial problems,
only bigger.
As many people have discovered, struggling and juggling pro-
duces limited results. This is because, like to emergency room care,
it deals with symptoms rather than causes. Change to a prosperity
mind-set is almost certain to take you outside your comfort zone.
Dealing with the psychological and emotional issues that inhibit
your progress is not always easy, but it is far easier than carrying
them around in your unconscious where they confound your best
efforts to get ahead.
Whatever your views about money, you are right. Your mind au-
tomatically creates financial results that are a precise reflection of
your internal thinking. So whatever you think about money, the is-
sue as to whether you are right is meaningless. Would you rather be
rich or would you rather be right?
The following Sample Set of 10 demonstrates the procedures to
use in creating Power Affirmations. Of course, your responses and
composed affirmations will be different.

Power Affirmations
Write the affirmation in the first person (me) followed by any objec-
tion or negative that your mind may have about it. Place this objec-
tion in parentheses ( ) to emphasize that it has less importance than
the affirmation. Then compose an affirmation that would cancel the
validity of the objection. Precede this affirmation by an asterisk * to
make it easy to find. (Note: We show the composed affirmation in
italicsfor clarity.) Refer to main text about how to make the com-
posed affirmations.
Complete three repetitions of the affirmation in the first person, re-
sponse, and composing new affirmation.
