2012 New Year Affirmations

Today’s Thought:

“An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in. A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves.”
~ Bill Vaughn

As you look at that quote, which one fits you? If you’re in the first group, please keep that momentum flowing in your life and the world as you impact it in 2012. If you’re in the latter group, a new year is a new start. It’s a chance to ask whether that way of seeing the world is getting you where you want to go in life.

2012 promises to be an intriguing year. There have been a lot of seeds planted in the mass consciousness about this year. Even if nothing historic or catastrophic happens, we are going to have to diffuse all the psychological baggage that accompanies the coming of this year. For what many still don’t realize, is that are our minds (individually and collectively) are not separate from the world “out there”. Our thoughts are, in fact, the root system of the “tree” we see manifested as the “real” world around us. If you dig up a tree, you will find it all stems from its root system. If you dig up our world of events and experiences, you soon see it is made up of our thoughts.

The cross-currents of disempowerment will be many and vocal in this historic year. The pace of change – real and perceived – is going to pick up during this year because of the built up psychological expectations for it. That makes it more important than ever to empower your mind and think the thoughts and envision the world you desire.

I am posting New Year’s Affirmations a little early so that you can begin using them now to get your new year off to a great start. Here are 23 affirmations to get your new year off to an empowering start.

I recommend you begin the year with using either “this year” or “In 2012,” and as you get beyond the change of the year change it to “Today” or “Right now”.

  1. This year I AM the person I came to the planet to be!
  2. In 2012, I AM the change I want to see in my world!
  3. This year, I AM a miracle in motion!
  4. In 2012, I AM bigger than my doubts, bolder than my fears, and stronger than my obstacles!
  5. This year I challenge my paradigms to prove their worth and I change those paradigms that fail the test.
  6. In 2012, I choose to live in the sunshine of my possibilities, rather than the shadows of my doubt.
  7. This year my life is built on choices, not chances!
  8. In 2012, I breathe in every experience life has to offer and exhale a life well-lived!
  9. This year I AM the engine of my dreams!
  10. In 2012, my life is what I make of it and I choose to make it a _____ place to be!
  11. This year I follow my bliss! This year I experience my bliss! This year I become my bliss!

55 Dream and Goal Affirmations

Today’s Thought

“The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”
~ Lao-tzu

Without goals and dreams, we quickly become victims of the status quo. We often use goals and dreams interchangeably. For me, the distinction is that a dream is the big vision and goals are the milestones that build the dream. Dreams are summit of the mountain and goals are the footholds along the way.

It is my belief that we can be, do, or have anything we want in life, if we are committed enough to believe and take action.

Accomplishing goals and dreams requires clarity of purpose (Napoleon Hill called this a burning desire), focus, and perseverance. There are few things in life more in the wheelhouse for affirmations.

What is your vision and what your steps, commitments, and milestones to get there? These affirmations are written to support you in that quest. There are a few that are similar to help you find the one with the right wording for you.

  1. When my why is strong enough, my how always appears.
  2. I follow my bliss. I experience my bliss. I become my bliss.
  3. Today I am absolutely committed to being the person I came to the planet to be!
  4. I am the engine of my dreams. My dreams never give up on me and I never give up on them!
  5. It is not the mountain I conquer, but myself. I am reaching for the top of the mountain and my day in the sun is here!
  6. My doubts become shadows in the sunlight of my determination.
  7. Roadblocks are simply shortcuts to something better than I had planned!
  8. I aspire to great things. One by one, I am achieving all of them!
  9. Today I have a clear goal in mind and I am focused like a laser on accomplishing it!
  10. My goal is my target and today I am on target!
  11. Today I block out distractions and remain committed to my tasks!
  12. When I set out to achieve something I eliminate all the negatives and naysayers and focus completely on my goal!
  13. Everything that happens in my life perfectly prepares me to achieve my dreams!
  14. When I really want my goals and dreams, my goals and dreams really want me!
  15. Today I am at the top of my game. I have unstoppable momentum all the way to my dreams!
  16. My life is a testament to the power of determination. When I go the extra mile success is always waiting.
  17. Today I listen deeply to the goals and dreams that are speaking to me right now.

Poem: Break-Through

I began this poem in 1993 and finished it in 1997. It describes a transformation from disappointment and heartache to selfhood. I hope you enjoy. Would love to read your comments.

hope“BREAK-THROUGH”

Free now of all reveling
in unimportant things.
Fraught with expectations
full of broken dreams.

Moving right ahead now
with visions grandiose.
Closeup of a happy young lady enjoying rainSummoning the courage
to conquer all my ghosts.

Knowing in the fullness
of the days that are to come;
my obstacles will fall away
and my fears shall be undone.

father and son on the sea on sunsetMindful in this moment;
connected to my fate.
My sense of separate self
begins to dissipate.

Dissolving now completely
into the cosmic whole.
All enters my awareness
I reach my final goal.

sun in handsKnowing for the first time
who I truly am.
I am Universal Mind
and it is but a man.

Actor and Actress Affirmations

Today’s Thought:

“Without wonder and insight, acting is just a trade. With it, it becomes creation.”
~ Bette Davis

oscar_trophyThere are people on this planet who have a dream. That dream is to be on stage or screen and make-believe while the rest of us watch. These are people bring the words of writers and screenwriters to life. We call them actors and actresses. With the possible exception of becoming a professional athlete, there is no bigger dream in western culture than becoming a movie star.

Many thousands of people act just for the pure love of it. They fill roles in community theater or Broadway or off-Broadway. These actors still harbor that dream of a big break or a memorable role that can set them on their way to greatness.

Whichever describes you, staying focused, motivated, and believing in your dream is a necessity. Whether you have already achieved some success, you’re the next big thing waiting to happen, or you just love acting for the joy of acting, these affirmations are for you.
