Dr. Wayne Dyer listed 18 excuses that most of us use in our lives that keep us from being our true selves, and he accompanied the excuses with an affirming statement to counteract the excuse. Dr. Dyer suggests that as the excuses arise in our minds that we practice counteracting them by speaking the affirmation immediately. This is what I like to call “retraining the brain”, because it is our dominate thoughts which is our point of attraction. Having said all of this, we must first be aware of our thoughts in order to counteract them. Become the diligent watcher or observer of your thoughts, and then you will be able to move into the affirmations listed below:
Excuse 1: It will be difficult
Affirmation: I have the ability to accomplish any task that I set my mind to with ease & comfort.
Excuse 2: It’s going to be risky
Affirmation: Being myself involves no risk. It is my ultimate truth and I live my life fearlessly.
Excuse 3: It will take a long time
Affirmation: I have infinite patience when it comes to fulfilling my own destiny.
Excuse 4: There will be family drama
Affirmation: I’d rather be loathed for who I am, than loved for who I am not.
Excuse 5: I don’t deserve it
