Have you heard of the butterfly effect? It is a phenomenon where just one little change made today will create huge results and outcomes later.  If you have not heard of it, look it up on the Internet.  There is the famous example of how one butterfly flapping its wings a certain way in Rio de Janeiro can significantly affect what kind of weather shows up on a certain day in Chicago!

The butterfly effect applies to human nature in the same way it applies to mother nature.  What this means is that small changes in the way you think and behave can create drastically different outcomes in your life.

We have all had one of those days where something negative happened first thing in the morning and by focusing on it and letting it bother you, you release negative energy which in turns creates other negative and frustrating things throughout your day. Believe it or not, if instead, you isolated the incident and chose to not let it affect your mood and energy- the entire day would have been different.

So, it not only affects your day but it can also affect your entire life.  Here is how to make the butterfly effect work to your advantage.

START OFF EVERY DAY with 5-10 minutes by repeating positive affirmations and imagining something wonderful happening.  If I am working on a business project, I might say something like “today we are going to have a major breakthrough in sales and make $x in sales.”  And I say it every morning until it happens!

If it is a Saturday and my kids have soccer, I say an affirmation like “today they are going to play hard, each score a goal, be safe and learn to love the game a little more!”

If there is nothing in particular you want to focus on, you can use a general affirmation like “amazing things are going to happen to me today. . .”

By saying affirmations and attaching positive energy to them, you are aligning the positive creative force of the universe to support you.  Do this every day and over a period of a month, a year and even a lifetime, you will have unbelievable experiences in your life.

So, in summary, know that the butterfly effect is a phenomenon that has been proven in science to work.  Apply it to your life to more quickly succeed in manifesting the life you desire.
