“I am”
Have you ever thought about the power and potency of these words?
What we impress on our subconscious mind is what comes to reality for us.
The power that words hold for us can easily be overlooked or thrown to the side, and in the last 18 months I have become aware that since I was a teenager I have been managing a tendency towards anxiety and made the conscious decision to never say “I am anxious”.
Why?
Because when I say those words, I feel my heart skip a beat and the anxiety within me.
This is a short episode to help you understand the importance of these two powerful words and how you can use everyday language to empower yourself and be the person you want to be.
