I recently read something about affirmation, that is using your mental energy to channel a result of your choosing. The process is as follows:
(1) Decide upon a goal that you could state in a single sentence.
(2) Write that sentence on a piece of paper 15 time every day until the goal is achieved.

That simple. Not a very difficult method of reaching a goal. No gantt chart, no process diagrams or action item lists. Nope just repitiion plain and simple. Quite similar to prayer.

I wonder if there are any rules to regulate this process. Can you only approach one goal at a time? What happens if there are two conflicting goals? If you double the sentences you write, do you cut the time in half? Can my goal be to exhaust want? In that case wouldn't giving up be achieving what you want?

I wonder if this even works. There's no harm in trying this out, but I don't know if I'll be able to keep it up until I achieve the goal... Well here's a start.
1.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
2.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
3.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
4.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
5.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
6.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
7.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
8.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
9.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
10.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
11.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
12.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
13.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
14.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
15.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
16.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
17.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
18.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
19.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.
20.) I, Tony, will write and publish a book.

All right, that's enough of that. I promise that this is the first and last time I will ever do this in my logs until I am actually published. I hope it doesn't deduct points for illedgible handwriting.
