DailyAffirm for Personal Development

"Joy energizes my actions.
I re-negotiate my contract with the Universe
to advance along my path joyously."

… Greetings! Our theme is Joy. This fourth week of the month we work with acting and claiming joy at DailyAffirm. Here are comments about today’s affirmation, suggestions for your process, and information about related articles.

About Today’s Affirmation
"Energize" is such a zingy word. It makes my shoulders lift up and my feet tingle to its vibration. Joy is energy. You are advancing along your path even though sometimes you may feel that you are stuck or blocked. It is an incredibly empowering concept to recognize that you create your own experiences. This is scary for some people, especially those who find themselves in circumstances they do not like! Please note that it is not an accusation, but rather an encouragement that if you do not like where/how/what you are, you can change it. I think that is one of the most empowering concepts you can embrace.

About Your Process
You probably already know the suggestion I am going to make: (re)view or (re)negotiate your contract with the Universe. Contracts are usually most effective in writing, but can be verbal or in one’s head and heart. Gather your helpers in Spirit: Spirit guides, angels, other beings of light. Honor your own belief systems as you clearly state your desires to your spiritual committee. For example, if you are uncomfortable in a relationship, clarify what assists you in living more joyously. If you feel overwhelmed in your job, describe the changes that would help you feel more aligned with your inner joy. You get the idea. Warning: Do not get trapped into believing that something outside yourself will bring you joy. The purpose of your contract is make adjustments (or affirm you like your circumstances) so that you feel a greater alignment with the joy from inside yourself.

Make this an energizing day!
