Can I Affirm My Way To Happiness?Do you want the quick answer? I guess the best response would be ‘maybe’. It really depends on what we are talking about.Affirming your way to happiness might work over a period of time but affirming for things that will make you happy will never do anything. Sound complicated? It is. Let’s start with the person who says the affirmation: “I am happy” over and over for a period of time. Can saying this tiny phrase help to make you happy? I think saying the phrase “I am happy” can help you: -To feel different emotions that will -Help you make different decisions that will -Help you take different actions that will -Result in you being happier. Saying affirmations that will bring you ‘things’ or ‘experiences’ that you think will make you happy will do nothing for your level of happiness. Why? Things and experiences don’t make a person happy. Being happy is something that you are. You don’t get happiness from things, people or experiences. You can be a homeless street person who has nothing and be much happier than a rich man with a beautiful wife, home and children. So let’s go back to the person who says the affirmation “I am happy” over and over. What really happens when this phrase is repeated? Do the ‘happiness genies’ pay this person a visit and kiss his forehead forever making him happy? Does this man receive mysterious non-drug related ‘happy pill’s in his mailbox? I am pretty sure the answer is a little bit more explainable. I think what happens is, over time, this person reprograms themselves with the notion that they are happy and this person changes his behavior and actions. After all of this our happy affirmer becomes more happy because he figures out, due to his repeated affirming, that happiness in a decision and the happiness emotion comes from within, not from somewhere floating around the universe. Which then brings up the issue why not just decide to be happy and be done with it? Why take the time and effort to do all the “I am happy” affirmations? Well you could, but if you had a thought paradigm that indicated that happiness was something that came from somewhere other than your own self you could not ‘just’ make the decision to be happy – it would not do anything. So then I guess we are back to saying the affirmation “I am happy”. Yes we are, or you could even try the affirmation: “I am open to finding the true source of happiness” And let The Universe, over time; bring about situations and circumstances to show you where happiness comes from. Affirmations that start with “I am open...” are especially helpful when you are not truly convinced something is possible or can happen. This affirmation would especially work well if you had some thought paradigms that even slightly resembled you thinking you would be really be a lot happier if you got a ‘certain bunch of things’ or had some ‘certain experiences’. Remember, you don’t have to decide right away to be happy- when you don’t really believe it. Let the “I am open” affirmation do the work and over time you will want to decide to be happy. So does affirming for happiness really work? Like I said back at the beginning – maybe. It really depends on where you think happiness comes from and how far you are willing to open your heart and mind to find out where that place is. Be well, << Blog Home
