Are you motivated now? The mind can not grasp negative affirmations.  We do not become motivated by them.   I can see that you are a bit confused.  "I will stop smoking" in phrased in the negative, while "I am a non-smoker" is a positive affirmation.  "I will loss 10 pounds" is negative, while "I...

I have always hated it when a prospective seller's first question is about commission.   Do you ever get those phone calls where they don't even say their name or form a complete sentence - only: "how much you charge for selling a home?"  It truly offends me to reduce everything I do, everything ...
