Two Words to Take Out of Your Vocabulary

It's been a while since I've posted anything. Been quite busy, but that's just an excuse. I had the privilege of assisting at Jack Canfield's Breakthrough to Success weeklong seminar earlier this month, and had an awesome experience!

Prior to that event, I would have probably said that it was an incredible or unbelievable experience, but I learned something about those two words.

Scott Schilling - and incredible guy - did an evening session on sales presentations. Now, I'm not in sales, per say, but he made a very good point that we're all in sales in one way or another - because in many instances we're selling ourselves. So I went to the presentation, and I got so much out of it! What's been sticking with me the most is that he said we should stop using the words incredible and unbelievable - because everything is credible and anything is believable.

It really struck a chord with me. With all that I've learned about the law of attraction, this just adds to it. If something amazing happens, when we say it's unbelievable, that's exactly what we're attracting. Either other people won't believe it, or after a while, we, ourselves might even question the believability. Now I don't know about you, but I've had enough doubt in my life that I don't need to be adding more with my language.

So I've recently been very conscious of those two words - and a third one came to my mind just yesterday. Impossible. I'm taking that one out of my vocabulary, too, because anything is possible.

Now, you may disagree with me, and I'm ok with that. But I know that if we want something bad enough - we can find a way to make it possible. And that's what I've got to say for today.

I hope you found it useful and I hope you check back in soon. Hugs, Cybil
