Relationships and the law of attraction
I tried not to give advice, because I didn't want to do that, but I did talk about a similar situation with my marriage, and how I dealt with that. We did have something in common in our relationship experiences. Essentially, it boiled down to keeping my side of the street clean, and supporting the other person in a difficult time- that's right- supporting and loving the person you are having conflict with! What a concept! In my case I noticed that resentment was taking me over. It took a while, but I started to feel- to know- the feeling of resentment and consciously changed my thoughts every time I had the "resentment feeling." I imagined my resentments going away and happy thoughts filling their place. I became the person I most wanted to be with- someone who is loving, supporting, and caring... Someone who was loving enough to let go and get out of the other person's way long enough for each of us to find out what our needs were at the time. You know what? Things got better for both of us. Does that sound like attracting what I want for a change?
So you ask what would be a good affirmation for being the person (or at least having the qualities of the person) that you most want to be with? Take a minute and visualize that person you most appreciate right this moment. What qualities come to mind first? Do they include Compassion? Playfulness? Openness? Joy? That is what comes to me. By visualizing that person I can see the things that I would like to bring to my relationship the most- even when there is conflict. Sure, we have differences of opinion, but that rarely matters for the lasting things in life. What remains most constant is the love that underlies relationships. The affirmation that I came up with is:
I bring to my relationships compassion, playfulness, openness, and joy so that others may do the same.
I encourage you to try this affirmation out, and visualize yourself this way. Visualize your loved ones this way. Hey, I didn't say it would be easy at first! Keep it going until you feel good about the visualization and can recall it easily. You can do it! Tell me how it goes. I know that those of us that desire to make our relationships happy, and our love life sizzle can and will succeed.
All the best to you are your loved ones,
Ed.

Staying focused on the GOOD.
A colleague in my office was going through a divorce. His two children were moving 300 miles away, and he was under lots of stress with the move. I saw that he was angry and depressed so I gave him a set of our THOUGHT SHIFTERS™ clings one day. I forgot about giving him the clings, and several weeks later he sent me this email:
"I've used these affirmations around my home, car and office to help remind me of who I am - a loving and caring father. My kids are always in my thoughts and, even though we are many miles apart and I miss them very much, the affirmations help keep me focused on the good in the situation. "
This is not an uncommon story for us to hear. Lots of us have changes occur in our lives and struggle to keep the focus on who we really are, and what we are capable of achieving. My colleague's struggle to remain true to himself and to his children in a difficult time easier having constant reminders to guide his focus. We are so happy to have a business that helps people. It is a source of the feeling of gratitude for us to remember that our business makes the world a better place, one thought at a time.
All the best to you- if you have any stories about THOUGHT SHIFTERS™ clings have helped you or a friend in your life please post a comment here.
