Celebrate Now Instead of Later

Celebrate your success in advanceA woman once decided to buy a lottery ticket with the last $1 that she had in her purse. And instead of simply going up to the machine, putting in her dollar and scratching off the ticket, she started by jumping up and down and yelling about how great it was that she won. She hadn’t bought the ticket and still celebrated her win. Sure, she looked like a fool to everyone else, but when she later bought a ticket and won $50, she realized that she was onto something. She was building an air of success around her.

Create positive energy

By celebrating your success before you actually have it, you are changing the energy that is around you. Adding more positive feelings to your life will draw in positive things toward you. So, by celebrating something that you want to happen, you are encouraging it to happen. And while you might not get positive results each time you do this, you will find that good things do happen to those who are grateful and excited to have them.

How you can celebrate now:

  1. Buy the size clothes you want to wear when you lose weight
  2. Keep a journal about how great your life is now that you’ve achieved a certain goal (even if you haven’t done it yet)
  3. Put up a sign of the exercise goals you want to reach with a note saying that you’re about to go beyond these goals

Positive energy breeds successYou need to find ways to bring in the energy of possibility into your dreams and your goals. Whether this means calling your friends and telling them that you ARE doing something or if it means that you keep a blog online of the way your life has changed since achieving a certain goal (even when you haven’t yet), you need to shift your mind into a ‘Yes I can‘ mode. And celebrating before you get started is more fun than waiting anyway.

Have a most outstanding day
