Transformation Exercise #12b

I can not believe it has taken me this long to write on this assignment. I performed this exercise a month ago. I did what Bill said not to do. I put this aside. Two weeks later I went and grabbed the sheet I wrote my “24 hour word review” on to reflect. Today I finally got down to writing my thoughts on the exercise. Most of the words I wrote down are positive. I wrote down words like persevere, accomplished, keep pushing forward, smiling, feel awesome, progressing, and way to go. There were some negative words. I noticed that most of those were influenced by people around me. Some of the words that were negative were I will do it later, it can wait, don’t, won’t, can’t, and hate doing.

I noticed that most of the time I am positive. I am least positive when I tired or feel stressed. I am working on watching what words I use when I am tired or stressed. I had no idea how much it can change your mood when you use positive words and say them out loud. I also had no idea how much how the words said by those around us can affect us. If those around me were negative I began to use negative words or if they were positive I would use positive words.

I have worked on watching my words. It is hard and a work in progress. When I work out I try to make sure that nothing but positive words are thought or said. I noticed I have more energy and can go longer when I use positive words. I also have been working on making sure I do not let the words of those around me effect me. If someone is being negative I speak back to them using positive words and I smile while using the positive words. It works most of the time. The times I found it not to work was when they were not listening, or they were not listening because all they wanted was to give their point across. I am amazed at how powerful this exercise is. I hope many get to try this exercise.
