Nudged: Pick an affirmation and work it to fruition

I have a list of affirmations I read through daily, mostly around the Law of Attraction. “I am productive and prosperous!” “I dare to affirm Big Ideas. I dare to expect Big Results!” “I now joyfully accept new creative work.”

The idea behind this week’s Nudge is to pick one—or pick something I want to manifest—and double-down on it. Light the candles, focus my prayers, visualize it, feel it.

So many possibilities for this. What might you bring to fruition* this week?

*Fruition is such a fun word. The Free Dictionary defines “bring to fruition” as “to complete or do something successfully.” I also love that I’m now sitting here craving a sweet and colorful summer fruit salad.

What Happened: I sat myself down for some quiet contemplation early Monday, to see which of my working affirmations might bubble up for this Nudge. I got…nothing. Seriously? So Tuesday morning I sat down with my journal to see what might bubble up, and started by writing at the top:

Seriously. What am I doing?

Writing, thinking, listening, and observing ensued. A lot of mental junk landed on the page until I got to…

Not doing. Being.

Clearing. Decluttering. Listening. Feeling. Seeing. Paying attention. Trusting.

What, I continued to explore, did I really want to affirm?

I am now…

I am now…what?

I am…

Oh.

I am. Now.

I am.

The Ah-Hahs: I have devoted much time and energy to becoming. Plan, schedule, visualize, strive, work toward…. This week I recognized and acknowledged that I am perfect in this moment—in every moment. What a gift!
