Hello and welcome back to the Unleashed Podcast, I am your host, Kristina Sjolund. Today I want to talk about the I AM factor. I introduced it on on day one of my Unleash Your Greatness course, and the response to it was amazing! People really got a lot out of it, and I'm so grateful for that because it's really an important part of moving forward, it's an important part of believing in yourself. You have to be able to believe in yourself in order to move forward, in order to create success in your life of any sort. I don't care if you're a one percenter, it doesn't matter where you're at, you have to believe in yourself at any level of success. Ready? Let's get started...
• Alright, so we're going to talk about I Am statements today. Because I Am statements are uplifting for you, they just make you feel good. They might seem silly at first, if you're looking in the mirror and you're saying, I am beautiful, or I am perfectly made. I have beautiful eyes. My hair looks fantastic. I love my stretch marks. We earned them, right? If you're a mom, those are tiger stripes, your stretch marks are tiger stripes, these are ways that you've got to turn things around. I am powerful. (3:26)
• Whatever it is, that repetition starts to make you feel good. There's the emotion at first, it's uncomfortable, but then it makes you feel good, that positive feeling. So be mindful of those thoughts and those ideas that you're planting in your mind because those seeds that you're putting in there, if you give them enough cultivating, if you give them enough to grow on, they're going to start sprouting. (5:40)
• Because once you start thinking positive about it, you're going to feel accepted by you. And you're really the most important to be accepted by. Who cares if somebody else doesn't accept you, you have all the power within you, and you're the most important, you're also in charge of how you feel every single day. You're the one who has all the power over controlling how you feel, and if you feel good about yourself, nothing else is going to matter if you feel empowered, if you feel impactful. (6:59)
• So write it out, it's going to make more of an impact. And then if you want to make it your background on your phone or your screen saver or whatever, do that, so that it's always there. And, if you don't know what to write here, in fact, I'm going to read some examples for you. So, if you write it out, you're making that physical activity and it's making that impression in your mind. (8:57)
• So I want you, each and every day, write down at least six I Am statements. I want you to write those down, I want you to repeat them each day out loud, don't just write them, and then that's it. You need to be talking to yourself when you're driving. If you're driving to work or driving to pick up your kids, if you're in the pick-up line at school, wherever you're at, I want you to be saying these things to yourself and don't be embarrassed about it.
