I’m actually a very happy person, and it feels really good to recognize it in silence. Everyday, I choose to be happy. But as soon as I write this sentence down, a little bit of my past fears scare me for a second. You see, I was not always this happy person I am today.<\/em><\/p>\n

How many of you have heard “that’s life”, “some things will never change”, “you never know what can happen”, or “why even bother?”<\/em> These common phrases keep you expecting the worse. Hearing them enough is also a way of self-programming. Your mind accepts these messages as true and executes them without discerning whether it’s good or bad. This is how the mind works.<\/p>\n

If you live and think in fear, then that what you fear will come true.
\nChoose to live and think with trust and love in life’s wisdom, then a lovely life full of self- trust will manifest.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Self-programming works faster than you can ever imagine. In one week, since “choosing to be happy” and reinforcing this goal through self-programming (also called affirmative prayer), I got the job of my dreams in a great place, working with great people.<\/p>\n

On the very day I quit my old job (a very progressing company but a depressing place to work at), my soon-to-be boss called me to ask if I would be interested in working with him. After his call I just sat down speechless: in shock and awe at the power of my self-programming sessions.
\nIt was a very hard decision to quit my job without having anything else in my hands except my trust on the Universal Wisdom. I was just simply happy and grateful towards life.<\/p>\n

Starting to consciously pray in an affirmative way will improve your relationships incredibly, and the way you approach life and how you feel is like a sort of small re-birth. And this state of happiness you can renew everyday; you’ll feel blessed.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Being this such a wonderful state to be in, I want to share these practical exercises with you. It is my intention to contage you with happiness.<\/p>\n

What, when and where:<\/strong>
\nPrayers and auto-suggestions work at best right before you doze to sleep and when they’re the very first thought when waking up. Also in those moments of peace and silence, where there’s no chance to be disturbed.
\nEveryday, twice a day or more, when the conditions allow it, repeat the following text or make your own prayer according to your personal needs, and in a tone you personally use to communicate with the universe.
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Be patient and consequent. Repeat this everyday, at least twice a day. Trust the power of the divinity in you and the universe. Choose happiness.<\/em><\/p>\n

I CHOOSE TO BE HAPPY. I AM FREE.
\nThe powers of my mind-spirit, in connection with the eternal Wisdom of the Universal Mind, open my inner doors to happiness.
\nBeauty, Truth and Goodness burst inside of me and fill every cell of my body with genuine joy.
\nBeauty, Truth and Goodness grow and expand outside of my body filling every single part of my life with blessings.
\nEverything I touch is beauty, the universe is wonderful
\nand I AM HAPPY and thankful for this gift<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

With this exercise you will discover that what one often hears: “happiness is real at moments, and it’s not a constant state to be at” is not at all true. People sometimes describe being happy as being “high”, laughter and joy unlimited.
\nExperience has taught me that “being happy” is actually a constant state in life, if you choose it to be. This state of happiness is sometimes affected by bad news or events, but you’re core element remains untouched. And as time heals, you always return to be your normal happy self.<\/p>\n

It’s wonderful when you ask someone, if they could choose “what to do” or “where to be”, and their answer is:
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

I choose to be here doing exactly what I’m doing now.
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

This, my friends, is real freedom!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
