As Mompreneurs and Bloggers you are different from everyone else because you get to make the rules you live by. Trouble is, many of us are still living by rules that others made—ones that don’t work well and actually keep you from happiness and success. You need to stretch your envelope and change habits that no longer work for you.
Over the next 50 weeks, I’ll post a mind-hack to replace the old rules with a whole new way of thinking. Thinking geared to propel you towards not only your goals but a happier, more successful life. So join me as we #crushitin2017!

Hack 1: Use Affirmations Effectively
If affirmations don’t work for you, consider the fact that you may be investing your energy and hope into
(a) unrealistic ones you don’t really believe in or
(b) generic affirmations that are too vague and broad-ranging.
The key to making affirmations work is two-fold:
- Be specific. Take your affirmation from pie-in-the-sky platitude to something you can achieve.
- Make sure you believe in the message at a gut level.
Anyone can say: “I am a millionaire right now”, but that is not really an affirmation—it’s wishful thinking. On the other hand, telling yourself daily: “I have a millionaire mindset” can be a powerful boost to your confidence and outlook, if you pair it with a plan of action.
