Success Affirmations – Succeed Big Affirmation – Friday Evening Affirmation for January 28, 2022

Good evening, Team Affirmation! As I sit here at the pool, we’re closing out an amazing three week trip to Kauai today. We catch a sun-up plane back to Kansas City first thing tomorrow.

Success. It’s one of those words like happiness that has a different meaning for every person. One person might be seeking financial or career success. For another person, success might be progress on their spiritual path. Still others, might consider success just making it through the stresses of another week.

Whatever your definition, this affirmation, listened to regularly, infuses your consciousness with a firm belief that your biggest success is within reach and that you have the skills and the mindset to manifest it.

This one comes in two flavors – meditative and active – depending on where you’re listening. Affirmations are more effective with repetition. If you’re trying to bring more success into your sphere right now, spend six minutes a day listening to this affirmation for the next couple weeks.

As always, you are all awesome!

Keep your mind on your side!

The Relationship You Truly Deserve Affirmation

Happy Thursday, my friends!

Whether you’re in a long-term, committed relationship or you’re looking for that relationship, you deserve a relationship that’s worthy of what you have to offer. That’s the premise of this affirmation.

No relationship and no partner is perfect nor are you. But, you do deserve your relationship to be one of love and respect and fulfillment. If you don’t have that, what’s the point?

This affirmation, listened to regularly, infuses your consciousness with your righteous sense of entitlement to such a relationship in your life and, by the way, so does your partner. For best results, listen to this affirmation repeatedly and with headphones. OWN the first-person version and absorb the second-person version as you listen.

THE AFFIRMATION

First-person: The relationship I truly deserve is coming to my right now.
Second-person: The relationship you truly deserve is coming to you right now.

Wherever you are on your journey today, remember you’re a one-in-a-trillion miracle.

Keep putting your mind on your side.

Phone in the River – Making Good Out of Bad

Affirmation

I am constantly making good things out of bad moments.

Hello, my friends. We’ve had an amazing nearly three weeks in Kauai. Yesterday we did something I’ve wanted to do since we started coming here 15 years ago. I was so excited!

We would be kayaking the Wailua River and the hiking through the Kauai jungle to Uluweli Falls – AKA Secret Falls.

The weather was glorious, as we started paddling down the river. I took some video of us leaving the marina and was so stoked to get video and photos of the adventure. I stuck my phone in my swim trunk pocket and began paddling.

About five minutes into it, I heard a disconcerting – OK an oh shit – sound. It was the sound of something heavy and plastic striking the fiberglass kayak. I had a sinking feeling I knew what it was. I reached for my pocket – no phone. I searched under and around me – no phone.

Yep! My phone had taken an unplanned dive to the bottom of the Wailua River!

I had about two minutes where my mind ran through all the ways the day would be ruined. No cool images to share with family and friends of our adventure. Dealing with phone insurance claim. Getting a new phone. What a disaster!

Then I made a conscious decision. I’d waited 15 years to do this adventure and do it on such a perfect day. There was no way in hell I was going to let this ruin it. I have the best cameras – eyes – and the best memory card – the human brain – on board. I would soak in every moment of this experience and I wouldn’t be doing it looking through my phone all day.

The kayaking was amazing. The hike through the jungle was just as I imagined it. Secret Falls was a magnificent reward. I wouldn’t have changed ANYTHING about the day.

Maybe the challenge you’re facing today is a lot bigger or a lot smaller than a drowned phone. I want you to hear this, though. You may not have a choice in the situation, but you most certainly have a choice in how you deal with it and what the outcome is.

Take the situation and apply the power of your mind to making it the best it can be for you. You have to choose which is going to dominate your thinking today – the challenging situation or your choice to think a better thought.

Trust me, you have it within you to make the proverbial lemonade out of life’s lemons.

Keep putting your mind on your side.

We Hiked the Maha’ulepu Heritage Trail on Kauai

Affirmation

I reconnect to myself by reconnecting with nature.

Happy Saturday, my friends. We’ve begun our third and final week on Kauai and our first week of actual vacation.

After 15 years of coming to the amazing Garden Isle, we’ve been looking for new things do that we’ve never experienced before.

We love to hike and today we tackled the relatively easy, but stunningly beautiful Maha’ulepu Heritage Trail.

This two plus mike trail, actually trails, move along the sea cliffs of Kauai’s south shore from Poipu to the east.

Most of the trail is fifty to one hundred feet above the ocean. There’s a choice of an oceanside trail or a more inland trail through the jungle. We did the former on the way out and the latter on the way back.

These are the experiences we live for and come here expecting. Enjoy our adventure.

Aloha!
