Affirm mantra for this week-Dream big

Hay House, Inc.




I had been on a long weekend visiting family and could not create my affirm mantra yesterday.As I was looking through the designs I created and uploaded in my zazzle store last week 2 stood out as messages to me.

Dream Big,If you can dream it,you can acheive it
and
100%genius is 1% inspiration + 99% perspiration.

Dream big is looming large in my mind now as having started on my creative journey of designing for selling online I wish to make it a success.This involves a lot of perspiration,like reading,analysing and adapting new information about promoting your works.It is not enough if we have good designs we have to make it visible.
I came across a new way to reach out to people by creating a squidoo lens-affirm-easy on our products our views,etc.I have created my first lens at squidoo about 3 affirmations to motivate us.

Nothing is impossible,Anything is Possible.

DreamBig,If you can dream it,you can acheive it

1% inspiration+99%perspiration=100%genius.

I would be happy to hear the feedback on my lens -affirm-easy from all of you and would be thankful for any help from anyone who has done lenses.

Affirm-mantra for this week-clear clutter for clarity.



Clutter drains your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual strength .
Clearing your clutter will dramatically improve your mood and energy.
Clutter acumlates slowly and grows to a big pile which we later put off tackling.
This saps our energy as the nagging thought that work has to be done makes us guilty.
Instead create workable plans to tackle the clutter.
Tiny steps taken everyday creates big changes.
As the clutter gets cleared so does your stress and you are on your way to clarity.

So,clear clutter for clarity.

Sending---with love

In these days of being connected through the internet and cellphone the art of writing letters and sending paper cards is something to treasure.The pleasure of receiving a thoughtful card makes one's day.It takes only a few minutes to send but the happiness lingers for long and the memory stays for ever.I have a collection of cards and letters which I have received from my husband,family and friends that I look through at times when I am down and it never fails to revive my mood.
It makes you feel loved .

A few days back I came across the site Greetingcarduniverse where you can buy personalised cards.They had a great variety of choices in cards for every occasion we can think of.A unique offer there was that if the card we were looking for is not there they offered to get them designed.They have wonderful artists who do it for you.Anyone interested in designing can join as an artist and they are given an individual store space to exibit their designs.I found this idea as an opportunity to express my creativity and have opened the store 'PAPER TREASURES'. I have uploaded 5 cards to start with and will be adding on a regular basis.I will be very happy to design personalized cards too.I would love to hear the feedback from my dear blog friends and your
valuable suggestions on what type of cards to create.

My first set of cards with the inside card words

success -congradulations for passing with flying colors.
wishing you a bright future.

cool flowers - thank you for your support and encouragement


rainbow butterflies - thank you for your presence.you added color to the party.


enjoy life -come and join my party to enjoy life after retirement


celebrate love - happy birthday

I was going to publish the above post when I saw in my reader that Jamie had posted her wednesday wish prompt for this week

what do you wish to invite in?

I thought maybe my wishes can sync this week with my new creative works.Let me invite inspiration to create wonderful cards and Let me invite buyers to my store-Paper Treasures to create memories to treasure in their lives.

wishing all a great day,
blesings for abundance,

Affirm-mantra for this week-SIMPLY LISTEN



Jan of 'awake is good ' has helped me create this affirm-mantra for this week.Jan has a wonderful blog and her posts are inspiring.This mantra will be a gentle reminder to the benefits of simply listening.

When we simply listen we become aware of our negative thoughts and we can replace them with positive ones.
When we simply listen we become aware of our blessings and we can express our gratitude for them.
When we simply listen we become aware of our time wasters and we can take concrete steps to erase it.
When we simply listen we become aware of our goals and we can plan to acheive them.
When we simply listen we become aware of our present moment and we can appreciate the beauty around us.

We sculpt our life with our thoughts and I would like this mantra to become part of my daily rituals that enrich me.

Affirm mantra -DO YOUR BEST



"I WILL DO MY BEST, AT WHATEVER I DO"

Thanks to ZigZiglar for helping me choose this affirm-mantra.

Quoting him from his book-'Steps to the top'-When you use what you have to the best of your ability,you will discover that your ability is more than adequate to reach your objectives.You will also discover that the more you use of what you have,the more you will be given to use.

So, I will not think of what is lacking but make use of what is there and make my actions the steps to the top!
