Everything! Think about it for a minute. You have the power within your mind to create whatever reality you so desire just by saying an affirmation. And while that is an extremely simplistic comment, it is THE TRUTH. Why? Because it's all about automatic pilot. Once we send out a signal to the Universe that we are CHOOSING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR creating our reality—and again, the very nature of saying an affirmation is making that commitment—the shift begins. For instance, metaphysics teaches us that we are all looking for perfect love and perfect approval. The first affirmation I began to say was "I love and approve of myself". I figured that if everyone on the planet totally loved and approved of themselves, the planet would feel a lot safer and be a much more gentle place. Right? Of course! So to begin with I will start saying "I love and approve of myself". Until I do! The answer—YOU CAN ACHIEVE HOPE.
