If you

mind delivers what you asked for unconditionally.
According
to Norman Vincent Peale “When the mental picture is
strongly enough held it actual seems to control condition
and circumstance” Dr. Emile Couse the French Physician
of the late r19th Century told his patients that they would
improve faster if they adopted that simple plan of saying
over and over:
“Everyday,
in every way, I am getting better and better”
Dr.
Coue even affirmed that daily use of this statement would
result in the curing of physical ailments as well as in
the development of their happier attitudes. Those who followed
his method found that it worked inspite of the ridicule
of others.
Dr.
Emile Coue understood that the repetition of a positive
thought over and over day after day affects the sub-conscious
mind and the creative power within.
Repetition
is an infallible technique of making the mind believer and
act upon new ideas. You live upto what you expect of yourself.
Therefore the use of affirmations is a dynamic tool for
personal development.
With
constant use of affirmation the law of displacement starts
working , i.e. affirmed ideas replaced earlier condition

act in the manner you have affirmed. You become a changed
personality because you act according to the exception you
