Positive Affirmation

I think it's important to think and live in a positive manner. I'm not a psychologist or any mental specialist, but I think so.

Doing a simple Google search, I found an interesting article about "self-affirmation." I'll list the article below. But please be aware. I copied the following article from a commercial source, and the last part of the article says "Click to Order and Download!" No, don't!!!

You don't have to buy anything. The following article tells you pretty much everything. Don't buy the book, just enjoy reading the article, and ignore the last part.

The Power of Affirmations

Affirmations are positive statements that describe a desired situation, and which are repeated many times, in order to impress the subconscious mind and trigger it into positive action. In order to ensure the effectiveness of the affirmations, they have to be repeated with attention, conviction, interest and desire.

Imagine that you are swimming with your friends in a swimming pool. They swim fifteen rounds, something you have never done before, and as you want to win their respect, you want to show them that you can make it too. You start swimming, and at the same time keep repeating in your mind, "I can do it, I can do it...". You keep thinking and believing that you are going to complete the fifteen rounds. What are you actually doing? You are repeating positive affirmations.

Most people repeat in their minds negative words and statements concerning the situations and events in their lives, and consequently, create undesirable situations. Words and statements work at both ways, to build or destroy. It is the way we use them that determines whether they are going to bring good or harmful results.

Often, people repeat negative statements in their minds, without even being aware of what they are doing. Do you keep thinking and telling yourself that you cannot do something, you are too lazy, lack inner strength, or that you are going to fail? Your subconscious mind accepts as true what you keep saying, and eventually attracts corresponding events and situations into your life, irrespective whether they are good or bad for you, so why not choose only positive statements?

Affirmations program the mind in the same way that commands and scripts program a computer. The repeated words help you to focus your mind on your aim, and automatically build corresponding mental images in the conscious mind, which affect the subconscious mind, in a similar manner to creative visualization. The conscious mind, the mind you think with, starts this process, and then the subconscious mind takes charge. By using this process consciously and intently, you can affect your subconscious mind, and thereby, transform your habits, behavior, mental attitude, and reactions, and even reshape your external life.

Sometimes, results appear quickly, but often more time is required. Depending on your goal, sometimes, you might attain immediate results, and at other times, it might take days, weeks, months or more. Getting results depends on several factors, such as the time, focus, faith and feelings you invest in repeating your affirmations, on the strength of your desire, and on how big or small is your goal.

It is important to understand that repeating positive affirmations for a few minutes, and then thinking negatively the rest of the day, neutralizes the effects of the positive words. You have to refuse to think negative thoughts, if you wish to attain positive results.

How to Repeat Affirmations

It is advisable to repeat affirmations that are not too long, as they are easier to remember. Repeat them every time your mind is not engaged in something important, such as while traveling in a bus or a train, waiting in line, walking, etc., but do not affirm while driving or crossing a street. You may also repeat them in special sessions of 5-10 minutes each, several times a day.

Relax any physical, emotional or mental tension while affirming. The stronger the concentration, the more faith you have in what you are doing, the more feelings you put into the act, the stronger and faster will be the results.

Choose only positive words, describing what you really want. If you desire to lose weight, do not tell yourself "I am not fat" or "I am losing weight." These are negative statements, bringing into the mind mental images of what you do not want. Say instead, "I am getting slim" or "I have reached my right weight". Such words evoke positive images in the mind.

Always affirm in the present tense, not the future tense. Saying, "I will be rich", means that you intend to be rich one day, in the indefinite future, but not now. It is more effective to say, and also feel, "I am rich now", and the subconscious mind will work at overtime to make this happen now, in the present.

The power of affirmations can help you to transform your life. By stating what you want to be true in your life, you mentally and emotionally see and feel it as true, irrespective of your current circumstances, and thereby attract it into your life.

Got it? Hope you enjoyed it.

P.S. If you buy these kinds of books, they normally tell you about cosmic power or universal power or something like that. You know, with those notions, you are probably gone too far. You probably don't have to understand such mysterious things. Also, don't have to help the author to make money with it.

Brainwave Tuner

About a month ago, I found Brainwave Tuner, an application for Blackberry phones. The concept of it is that it provides a certain sound or a specific tone so that the listener's brain frequency is changed to desired states. It's said to help sleep and therapy, meditation and relaxation, and focus and learning.

I thought it was dubious, but after reading some nice reviews, I decided to through away my $4. After one month, I liked this application a lot. When I use it when going to sleep, I can fell asleep faster and sleep deeper so I feel really good next morning.

The actual sound was really dubious at first as I thought the sound would be smooth and gorgeous. But for me, it sounded really cheap like a UFO sound you typically heard on TV. But I don't complain it anymore as I think it's effective. I use it when I need to concentrate on something, too, and I feel good about it. It was a good deal for only $4.

Blackberry Bold 9900

I'm a heavy fan of Blackberry phone. Blackberry Bold 9900 was released in the US and some other countries quite a while ago, but, here in Japan, it was release at the end of March.

In my country, Blackberry users are minority so I had to make phone calls to cellular shops around in my area as not many cell phone stores don't want to keep stock for such an unpopular phone. Nowadays, iPhone and Android phones are the popular gadgets here.

The store I found that has BB9900 in stock was near the U.S. army base. They say some military men always come to buy Blackberry so they always keep some in stock.

New BB9900 was a little bigger and thinner than my previous BB9700. I liked the silver rim around it. But the coolest improvement was its speed. Everything, including browsing and accessing to my VPS, got much more faster due to Snapdragon CPU and increased RAM, which also contribute smoother flipping motion on the touch screen. The second best thing wider monitor. It's now much easier to read texts.

And, of course, those physical keys are the best of the best. In terms of ease of typing, Blackberry is second to none.

My Recent Situation

I was unable to update my blog due to a bug of bloggger (probably). Now it seems fine. So I'm gonna start posting my comments again.

I've still been using Wallstreet Forex Robot, and it's still working great. And I purchased a new EA called Million Dollar Pips. Let's see how it works.

Reverse Osmosis Unit

As many of you might have known, there had been Great Tohoku Earthquake in Japan. I was far away from the most devastated area, but the damaged nuclear plants keeps emitting radioactive substances in the air and water (to the ocean and groundwater).

Last week, government reported that municipal water in some prefectures were radiation polluted and the quaity of tap water has exceeded the safe level for babies. After this announcement, everybody rushed to buy mineral waters and it has become harder to obtain water in stores around Japan.

In my area, tap water hasn't exceeded the safe level, but since we have two-year-old baby, I was worried about drinking water quality in my house. So I've decided to purchase reverse osmosis water filtering unit from a store in the U.S.

RO unit that I ordered costed about $300 (shipping to Japan costed additional $150!), but the investment would be much cheaper than regulary purchasing bottles of water in a long run. Besides, it's now very hard to purchase water bottles here in Japan. With a RO unit, you can turn unlimited amount of purified water.

Particles of radiactive substances can't go through filtering membranes of RO unit. So it's gonna be very safe. Also, I like purified water very much. It tastes much better than mineral water.

It's said that the problem of nuclear power plants last some years so I believe this investment would contribute the health of our family. Of course, the best solution is the stop of radioactive emission from the plants, but we have to do whatever we can do to manage our health.
