The reason why I am writing this article is to let this student and
all others know something… something that can change their life and help
them witness their dream of become a CA : Chartered Accountant become a
reality in front of their own eyes. Today I am going to talk about the
power of “I AM”.
I truly and firmly believe in the power of words. Just like old
‘mantras’ in Hinduism that has the power to transform one’s life by its
sounds effect on body and mind and raise a person from ordinary
to
higher levels of consciousness. But no mantra, for example Gayatri
Mantra can have positive effect unless it is recited multiple times over
a period of time. Mantras are nothing but words and we can safely say
that words have the power to influence the outcome of one’s life or
results in one’s life.
Negative words like “I am a failure” “I am not worthy”, “I am not
intelligent enough”, “I am weak student”, “I am very bad at that
subject” etc are no less than powerful mantras that had huge impact on
the life of the person reciting them over and over again and carrying
them in his thoughts.
“I am” are the 2 most powerful set of words one can ever come across
as far as having an impact on a human life is concerned. Remember –
whatever you add after these 2 power words “I am” begins to manifest
itself in your life. It is like giving an invitation to the keyword that
you add after “I am”. It’s an invitation to be a part of your life. So
the next time you say “I am a failure” remember you are giving an
invitation to failure to become a permanent part of who you are. Never
ever say a negative word even if the outside world appears to be giving
negative results. Always say and think positive words and if you really
want to be a Chartered Accountant repeat as many times as you can “I am a
Chartered Accountant”.
One of the most powerful way in which you can use these keywords is
by keeping them as your email password or mobile screen lock password.
The intent is that you should use, recite, write, feel, think these
words again and again and again so as to plant them deeply in your
subconscious mind. Record your voice saying ‘I am a Chartered
Accountant’ and listen to it when you relax and take break from study.
Friends the default setting of an ordinary human being is negative.
We as humans attract negativity in our life more than positivity. If we
don’t program our mind and ourselves for success, we are sure to fail
because that is what our default setting is. Why is that so? Well…
that’s nature.
Now some of you might think and counter argue that “I have been
declared failure in the recently out results and I know I have failed
and I am not a Chartered Accountant… so how can I say these words when I
know them to be not true?”
And my answer to that is… nothing is this world… not me, not you, no
one can change your past. The fact that you have failed is a fact of the
past and I am not talking about changing your past… that’s impossible.
But you can change your future by changing how you feel about your
present. Do not make the mistake of lingering on your past. Your past is
buried… its dead. Release it. Because only by releasing your past you
can choose a new though in your present to create a future of your
choice.
Let’s carefully understand this. Tell me one thing… can you touch
your past? Is it real? The answer is – No. your past is not real. It
exists only in your emotions… your feelings. Same goes with future…. It
is unreal because you can’t touch it. Then what is real? What’s real is
this very moment – present. You can touch things in your present… you
can see things. So both past and future are unreal but present is real.
You cannot alter your past but you can alter your future by choosing
which thoughts you hold up in your mind in the present. Is it the
memories of the past? The negative emotions and feelings from bad past
experiences or is it the pictures of your choice using your imagination
to create a future of your choice. Whatever thought you hold in your
mind in this moment called present… creates your future.
I know it’s not easy… it’s tough but remember – CA is not a tough course… it’s a course for tough people.
Friends you must understand that this world is run by the collective
consciousness of the people who live here. Same goes with our individual
worlds… our emotions & feelings & consciousness are creating
our world. We are emotional beings and are basically running after
feelings. So when we want to get a rank in CA exam, we are not longing
for a time when we will hit a set of numbers in the computer and
computer will flash a mark sheet which will show merit. No we are not
waiting for that… what we are waiting for is the proud feeling that we
will get when we get the rank. The social recognition that we will get,
the emotion that we’ll be on the top of the world is what drives us. It
is not the event that will happen in certain time in future that pushes
us… it the emotion and feelings that we have associated with that event
and which we want to experience in reality that drives us.
If it was not the case, then the past rank holders would still get
the same feeling that had they had experienced when they first saw their
name in the merit list. That fact… that event when their name was there
in the merit list in itself does not have any value… it derives value
when we attach emotions to it. And I am saying the only way to get to
feel and experience an emotion that you want to experience in reality in
future is by living and feeling that emotion right now in every
now/present in your mind and in your heart until that eventually becomes
a reality. When you don’t do that you leave things to chance.
Do not leave things to past and don’t be a victim of your past bad
memories. Use imagination and the power of “I am” to make a positive
change in your life. Because you have the power and the tools now to
create the future of your choice.
