I just had a nice little realization this morning that I thought I’d share with you. How many times in life do you say “I want …”?

I want to be healthy

I want to receive money

I want to meet my ideal partner

I’ve often heard that it’s not so good to use the word “want” because it implies a lack or limitation. So for a while now I’ve tried to use “I desire” instead of “I want”. Desire’s kind of a big word though, and it never really rolled off my tongue so well.

Now I’ve got a new one to try … “I’m ready”

I’m ready to be healthy

I’m ready to receive money

I’m ready to meet my ideal partner

It has a whole different feel to it, doesn’t it? It implies that I’m holding the best state of mind, and a feeling of openness, and the willingness to act on and receive what I am asking the universe for.

For me, just a few short hours of using “I’m ready” already has me feeling good, empowered and enthusiastically motivated toward all the things I desire.

Try it, and let me know how it works for you.
