How to Recreate Your Life

"School days, school days, wonderful golden rule days. Readin' and 'ritin' and 'rithmetic''"

The good old Three R's. We'd like to share a different set of three R's - three R's that can transform your "definitely maybes" into "Definitely Definitelys."

Recognize: If we want to recreate our life, we have to start by becoming aware of what we aren't happy with. And sometimes, it is hard to recognize. For example, think about the phrase "yeah, but?"

"Yeah, buts" are actually powerful negative affirmations. (I am energized and healthy -- yeah, but how come I feel so lousy? OR yeah, but I've just come down with the flu. Here's another one: I attract abundant riches, and have plenty to share and spare -- yeah, but how am I going to make my car payment this month? Wherever I am, God is and all is well -- yeah, but God seems to be taking a vacation right now!)

"When, then games" are words we use to procrastinate. (For example, I believe that what we give comes back to us multiplied -- and when I get that new job, then I'll start really tithing! I believe that God is my source, and when I start getting my retirement income, then I'll be able to have fun!)

Mismatching words and actions occurs when we say one thing, but our actions don't live up to or model what we say. (In dance, when we count steps - triple step, triple step, rock step - but our feet are doing all kinds of weird steps that have nothing to do with our words!

Refute: To refute means to refuse to give any power to the attitudes and comments of other people. Essentially, it means not allowing other people to control our life experience. (For example, we can make statements such as: There is no way your attitude will change my attitude!) We can also refuse to give power to the world of appearance in terms of lack, or illness, or fear. (For example, we can say, "I refuse to give power to this situation" OR "This perceived health challenge has no power over me.")

These statements are called denials -- which means to declare to be not true; to declare as utterly false. We use denials to put our error thoughts where they belong. Denials are a way of talking back, refusing to give power to something 'outside' of us that seems controlling or restrictive.

Reprogram : A denial without an affirmation is a very dangerous thing! So we must fill the vacuum created by denials with powerful affirmations what we know to be truth. In the Gospel of Luke 11:24-26, Jesus tells the parable of the man who was cleansed of an evil spirit. However, the spirit returned, finding the "house" swept clean, and so it moved back in, with seven of its buddies, more wicked than he. This reminds us of how important it is to reaffirm our beliefs and reprogram our thinking, by following up denials with powerful affirmations!

According to Emilie Cady, in Lessons in Truth, "to affirm anything is to assert positively that it is so, even in the face of all contrary evidence. Deny the appearance of evil; affirm good. Deny weakness; affirm strength. Deny any undesirable condition, and affirm the good you desire."

The critical ingredient for success is to claim your affirmations with power -- with faith! When you use a lackadaisical approach, you are simply wishing. When you affirm in a manner that says "Without a Doubt," from the strength of your Christ consciousness, you are speaking with a voice of knowing faith and Truth!

Our granddaughter graduated from Daisies - the pre-Brownies group. As a graduation gift, the leaders gave each girl a little book filled with pictures capturing the events they had participated in. We were struck by one of the pictures. The girls were lying on the ground, in front of a fire truck. The words above the photo were "Stop, Drop, Roll." Our granddaughter explained that it was a phrase the firefighters used to tell us how to handle ourselves if we ever get caught in fire.

It connected with us as a reminder of our 3 R's. STOP -- Recognize the habits you have that block your spiritual growth and happiness; DROP -- Release thoughts and actions that are inconsistent with Truth by denying their power; and ROLL -- Reaffirm the power of recreation you possess, through putting Truth principles into action! Turn the 3 R's into a daily routine, so you recreate your life!
