Exercise 1

Create Your Affirmations
At this point of the course you should now understand what your vision is in all 8 areas of your life. So now it’s time to use the power of Affirmations to ensure you attract this into your life.
We have included a worksheet with a list of example affirmations you can use in the resource section above to give you some ideas. By all means use these examples if you feel they represent you and what you want from life.
It’s also a great idea to try and create some of your own using the technique of writing down a list of negatives, things that are holding you back and stopping you from pushing forward in life. Once you have the list of negatives just flip those around to positive statements in the present tense.
Just to repeat that, make you affirmations PRESENT TENSE! You should not be writing and saying things like ‘I want to be in a happy and healthy relationship’. Instead what you should be saying is something like ‘I am in a happy and healthy relationship’…
To begin with it will be hard to remember all affirmations so make sure you record them. We have included a tab on the Life Planner Doc you have been using for the past few weeks, so go and record all of your affirmations in there so you always have somewhere to refer back to.
Something else you could also do is once you have all your affirmations written down you could record yourself saying them out loud with conviction and belief they are true. Then play this back to yourself on your phone or whatever recording device you decide to use on a daily basis.
Something else to remember is your affirmations will constantly be getting updated, some will remain on your list for years, or even indefinitely… Whilst others will be added when a specific event in your life is coming up and you need some affirmations to help you overcome and achieve these specific things.
There is no hard and fast rule for the number of affirmations to have however do your best to have 10 or more. To begin with this is just a 1 minute practice but as time goes on it’s preferred and far more beneficial for that time to increase.
Additionally if you would like to go into a lot more depth on affirmations there is a link to a really good book in the resources section above that talks about Affirmations. Noah St. John actually coined the word ‘Afformations’ hence the book title, and he talks about how to frame and word your affirmations so you can really get you subconscious mind working for you to go out and make these things happen.

Exercise 2
[op_liveeditor_element data-style=””]

Define Your Life Purpose
At this point you should now have your list of core values in order of importance top to bottom. You should also have built your dream vision for all 8 areas of your life and have that clear destination in mind to head towards.
As long as you have these two then it’s time to define what your purpose is in life, what your big why is, why you do what you do every day.
It’s really important to make sure that your life purpose is directly in line with your core values as a person and your vision for what you want in your lifetime.
Download the ‘What’s Your Purpose Worksheet’ above and set aside some private quite time to work through the list of questions. There are a lot of thought provoking questions in here but do not question things, just write down whatever comes into your head.
Some questions may need to be answered multiple times until you you’re happy with your answer but keep working on this until you have a clear answer for all the questions in the worksheet.
At the end of the exercise you should have a 1 – 2 sentence statement that really embodies what your true purpose is in life. Once you have this you will feel a greater sense of purpose and being with life!
Go and fill in your life purpose on the purpose tab of your life planner doc so you have it all in once place. You will also see there is a space to copy and paste your core values below so do that as well.
Then every day read your life purpose statement and the core values you are living this purpose through. Do this every day until you no longer need to read it and can just recite it off the top of your head.
As life progresses anytime you are confronted with a big or difficult decision the refer back to your purpose and values and the answers will come to you more easily than you could ever imagine!
