Much of your communication to yourself is through self-statements. These self-statements, which form part of the stream of your inner dialogue, determine how you will act out your future. The quality of your self-statements is that they either empower, or they limit you.

Words are the basis of all your self-statements. In your mind you link words to images that will be associated with past experiences, whether positive or negative. Words trigger off powerful associative images, especially if they are backed up by strong emotive feelings. Say to yourself, “I will never be successful”. Now say that again, with real emotion, and it becomes a powerful directive that will program your subconscious mind to create a limited behavioural pattern.

There is no way you can feel inclined to ‘be successful’ when you are making this kind of limiting self-statement. As your subconscious does not have the capacity to discern whether you mean what you say or not, it acts out ‘to not be successful’ as an action. Your subconscious mind is literally programmed by your inner communication. How you communicate with yourself determines your outcome.

You can see how imperative it is that you become aware of the statements you make to yourself. As you move through your day, pay attention to the way in which you talk to yourself, and to your choice of words. Remember – everything you tell yourself is acted upon, because your subconscious mind is unable to discriminate.

Self-affirmations send positive messages to your mind. When you are frustrated because you feel you are not achieving or moving forward in your life, or you find it hard to view yourself differently, or you are not losing the weight you are working hard at losing, or your finances are not improving – then improve your potentiality through affirmative self-statements! You can support your intention to achieve your goals by becoming aware of the limiting self-statements you make. The next step is to replace them with positive self-affirmations and take the necessary actions to close the gap each day.

Before attending Annette’s coaching program, I ran a dysfunctional business that was stagnant and I had no focus or direction. I didn’t act on my new ideas and they were therefore dismissed. I was confused as to what I wanted.

Then I found direction, freedom, brilliant creative ideas and passion in my work. I followed through on my goals and watched my business grow.  I am now proactive and confident and also excited about the future I see for myself.

During the coaching I received tools that gave me more confidence in myself, motivation to act on my desires, respect and acceptance of others and a peaceful mind free from stress. And best of all the ability to go after what I want, be successful in achieving results and the know how to nurture myself and continue to generate new triumphs.

The 3 most significant improvements are Web and graphic design projects successfully completed with repeat business from clients. New marketing skills resulting in new clients. A growing confidence in my creative ability and proactively taking the next steps to my success; thanks to you and your coaching program.

If I didn’t do the coaching with Annette, I would continue to be negative, confused and going nowhere with my business. I would also be wasting precious time wallowing in this state of mind.

I now have a functional business that I love.  A commitment to my success that I know I will achieve. My work is not just an income, but a passion which is completely satisfying, and I am motivated to have it grow and develop into more than I imagined. And the bonus is with what I have learnt from Annette, this has spilled over into other areas of my life.
