The most important thing is that you feel comfortable with the words you will be living with for 21 days.

Goals and Dreams Versus Living in the Now

It’s important to know that you don’t have to wait for the results of your affirmations to transpire before you can be happy. Many people think that they can only be happy when or if things change. They think, “If I could just block this pain I would be happy,” or, “When I get a new job, my life will be better,” or, “When I hit the lottery,” or, “Move to Cape Cod,” or, “Move away from Cape Cod,” my life will be complete. Some of us think happiness lies outside of ourselves, when it really lies within us.

This present moment leads us into the next moment and into the next moment. When we can stay in the pres - ent moment, life naturally moves us forward. This is the way of life. Spring moves into summer, moves into fall, moves into winter and moves into spring again. When we follow our inner spirit and let our soul direct our course, our lives flow.

What does “being fully alive in the present moment” mean? And how do we get there? Living in the present moment simply means being free to be with whatever is going on in your life now, without wishing it to be different. It means not letting yourself be blocked by feelings of anger, resentment, guilt or shame from the past, or fears of the future. It means letting go of judgments and opinions and simply accepting what is right now and right now and right now. . . .

It also means growth and change. Our natural inclination is to grow and change, wish and want. Human beings are constantly evolving. This seems to be in conflict with accepting what is right now. How can we evolve and still be in the now? And why use affirmations to change if we want to learn to be content and accept the moment?

While our intention is to find peace in the moment, to be okay in this moment, it does not mean that we have to stay in unhealthy, unpleasant conditions. For example, the job you are in might be very stressful or even abusive, so you have decided to leave and find a new job. You might have to stay in your old job a bit longer because you can’t afford to leave before you have the new job. You need your weekly salary. However, affirmations can help you be peaceful with your decision to leave. You can use affirmations such as “God is guiding me toward the perfect job for me” or “I am discovering the perfect job for me today.” We still can have our goals and dreams, but we don’t need to reach them in order to feel peace and contentment. We can be content in the knowledge that we are moving toward them.

Perhaps our lives are positive and full and there isn’t anything we want to change.
