Hey there! I’m back with Day 4. We are finally getting some nice weather here in the Pacific Northwest and I sure am glad to see the sunshine. The words of encouragement I have for you today are the following:

Today I will act “as if” ( in a positive form)

The card continues on to talk about “acting as if” is a good way to get past a part of a problem or overcome fears and doubts and acting as if the situation is resolved. Now, if you’re in a tough spot financially with this economy, pretending it isn’t so is not what we’re talking about. We’re shifting the mindset instead from one of fear to positivity. We’re talking about the idea and concept we’ve heard so many times: What would you do if you could not fail?

For example, some people have a great fear of public speaking and before a presentation they visualize themselves giving their presentation in front of the crowd. Or a sports athlete envisions winning and psyches themself up.

While we cannot run from nor ignore our challenges in life taking a few minutes to shift your mindset into a positive area and work on removing fear and doubt will help us go a long way.

Where are you needing to act “as if” in your life?

I’d love to hear your thoughts.
