Words

How important are the words we use when we are deliberately using the Law of Attraction? Is it really that important not to say things like “I want to get out of debt?” as in “if you are saying debt, whether it is get in or get out you are attracting debt” (Isn’t that what Bob Proctor said in “The Secret”?).

Well the fact is that the Universal energies are not responding to your words.
The Universe is only responding to your vibrations. Your words are not where the focus is but only your feelings and vibrations. The words you use are not the most important thing when you are deliberately creating your life. Your vibrations are.

Now having said that I am going to seemingly contradict everything I just said. I have that prerogative you know, as I am the writer here and I am female.

The words that you use are extremely important when you are creating your life. Let me give you a little illustration. Just play along with me here.

Do NOT think of a Pink Elephant. No, I really mean it! I do NOT want you to think of a Pink Elephant. I challenge you to NOT think of a Pink Elephant. There is no such living thing as a Pink Elephant so I do NOT want you to think about Pink Elephants!

Okay, so what are you thinking of now? I’m betting that you are not thinking of blue alligators, or purple turtles or any number of other things you can think about. I’m going to bet that at least for a fleeting moment (and probably longer if you admit it) a Pink Elephant lingered in your imagination. In fact the more I stressed, “not thinking” about the elephant the stronger the image became in your mind. I know the pink elephant in my mind was dancing around in ballet shoes with a purple ribbon on its head and a bouquet of pink and yellow tulips (no shortage of imagination here!). It is probably the same with you. You can see that Pink Elephant in your mind in all of its glory!

And that is why our words are so important. Words give meaning within our minds. Words make the images in our minds. The words we use affect us whether we think so or not.

It is difficult if not impossible to separate the words you use from the images you create in your mind.

If you want to deliberately create your life promise yourself you will become conscious of, consider and think about the words that you use.

You can’t get around it. Your words affect your life.
