Power Words
How to Use Affirmations to Create Dramatic Changes in the Way You See Yourself
A few decades ago, there lived a Russian psychic whose reputation for accomplishing strange and mysterious feats rivaled that of our greatest magicians. It was said that while magicians used tricks to accomplish their sensational effects, Wolf Messing did not.
As the story goes, the Soviet leader, Joseph Stalin, asked to see the psychic. He told his head of security to get the message to Messing that he was to be in Stalin"s office at the Kremlin within three days. He also told the security chief not to give the man a pass; if he was as good as he claimed, he should be able to get into the office without any passes, sanctions, or written material of any sort - even if it was the most closely guarded area in all
the world.
Two days after the request was made, Stalin looked up from his desk to see a man standing in front of him. Not only was this a breach of security, but to his mind it was impossible. Calling for his security people, he pressed hidden buttons that rang loud clanging bells and alarms. The entire floor was soon in an uproar. Guards ran in and surrounded the stranger. When the man was questioned, he revealed himself to be Wolf Messing, simply complying with Stalin"s request for an appearance.
On further questioning as to how he accomplished the seemingly impossible feat, he said that he laid a cloak of invisibility over himself by saying the words, "Beria, Beria, I am Beria," and repeating it until he believed it himself. When questioned, the guards said that the only person who"d passed them was the head of the Soviet secret police, the chief of security, Lavrenti Beria. Wolf Messing"s feat is a remarkable demonstration of the concept of power words.
Examples of the use of power words are all around us, from the shouts of martial arts practitioners to the "Fore!" of golfers. Despite the prevalence and obvious utility of this concept, however, it seldom occurs to most people to apply it in their own lives. In this chapter we"ll give a more complete explanation of its use and range of applications so that you can add another valuable resource to your mental warehouse.
Power Word Use in High School
An example of the dynamic force of the words of power came from one of our Power of Self Mind Control students. She was a teenager who attended the seminar with her parents. She hated school. Not because of the work, but because of a few of the students there. The young lady feared some of the local toughs in the school after suffering several verbal assaults by them in the past. She paid particular attention to the segment on power words.
She asked again and again if it were true that her thinking a particular word could actually have an effect on another person. She was told to try it and see. Her main interest was in keeping herself safe from harm, and she felt that learning power words would accomplish the most good. The day after the seminar, she subsequently reported, she was walking through the school yard past the group she feared, and instead of expecting sneers, smirks, someone tripping her, or perhaps a punch on the arm or worse, she concentrated on the power word "beware."
She repeated the word beware over and over again mentally as she had been taught. She visualized a quiet beware in her mind growing louder and louder until the word filled her consciousness. Approaching the group with her head high and concentrating on the word beware, she strolled right on past the group, and for the first time she reported, not one of them said or did anything to harm her in the slightest. Indeed, she said, they acted as though she wasn"t even there.Reasons abound for the effectiveness of the power word. There is the expectation that things will be right. There is the elimination of the negative expectation of fear, thereby producing a stress-free and relaxed state of mind. And not the least, there is the faith that the word instills in an individual. Here"s how to use the concept of power words as a resource to help better your life.
Begin with a simple word, one that will demonstrate to you the effectiveness of the power word concept. The first power word for you to use is the word power itself. You may use the finger/thumb technique by placing the thumb and forefinger of your stronger hand together as a trigger device to enhance
its use.
Think the word power for thirty seconds, repeating the word every two or three seconds. Begin with a diminished image and enhance it. Enlarge the word so that you can see it in huge letters on the side of a mountain. At the same time, hear the word spoken, becoming louder and louder. Mentally shout out the word power, feeling yourself become more powerful as you do.
Take a few steps as you do this and you will notice that you are walking taller, straighter, and with more confidence. You may be able to feel new strength surging through your body. That is the concept and use of the power word.
Strong and Weak
During my Power of Self Mind Control seminar we demonstrate the action of the power word.
Each person sitting in the front row of seats is given a word to repeat mentally. I whisper to half of them to think the power word, 'strong' the other halt to think 'weak'. All are told to hold their right arms straight out and away from their bodies.
My associate then strolls by and attempts to pull down each arm. What follows is a gasp of astonishment and amusement from the students in the seminar as they realize that something unusual has taken place. Half of the front-row occupants end up with an arm down, while the rest stand with arms straight out and rigid. All those who were told to repeat the power word "strong" have their right arms extended; the instructor could not pull them down. The rest stand looking somewhat sheepish, with their right arms loosely dangling at their sides. The power words used have weakened those who thought weak and strengthened those who thought "strong."
A muscular, healthy, bull of a man, believing that for some reason he is weak due to an imagined problem, or that someone he is going to meet is stronger than he, will in fact be weakened. This has been proven many times in the professional arenas of the world, especially with boxers who attempt to "spook" or weaken their opponents with words of power for themselves and weakness for their opponent. The same effect is seen in the home-team advantage that has been well documented over the years in every high school, college, and professional stadium in the world.
When you get thousands of people together thinking of their man, woman, or team winning, those thoughts generate a feeling of power in the team members. The home-team advantage is enhanced even more when all the spectators use the same word, as they do when chanting the mane of a favorite player.You can use the technique of power words to create an immediate change in your actions. Whether it involves a change from cowardice to courage, procrastination to motivation, or lethargy to activity, there is a word for you.
Say that you wish to do something now that you have been putting off. Create a mental image of yourself doing this thing. You can add to the technique by brightening the image and then enlarging and zooming in on it. Once you have a clear image in your mind repeat the appropriate power word, in this
case "energize."
Repeat the word over and over while holding the image of the thing you wish to do. You will find your energy building to the stage where you will in fact energize yourself to do it. There are many words that you can use as power words. Strength, health, beware, handsome, beautiful, strong, powerful, courageous, fearless, thin, relaxed, successful, effective, attract, repel, creative, are but a handful.See how many more you can think of that would be useful to you. Understand that you are in control, and that one of the tools of that control is the directed use of the power word. You can change, by degrees, from weak to strong, from fearful to courageous, from fat to thin, from putting things off to getting them done, and from failure to success in any goal you direct the powerful force of your mind to achieve.
Notes From a Recent Student
Pam Robinson was in a seminar I presented in Dallas, in August, of 2002. Here are a few words taken from her long, exciting letter."This one is really amazing. I have walked with a cane because of my back spasms and injured knee for two years. To help my self walk I use the Power Words. My power word? "Beautiful". I have to say knowledge is indeed power. I am 15 pounds lighter and no longer walking with a cane. Cool HUH. Better and Better. I found that I could not lose weight because I found it. I am known for finding things I lose. So I am melting the fat, and eliminating it. I have gone from drinking 1/2 of a 3 liter of Dr. Pepper a day to lots and lots of water every day, to wash the fat away!
Examples of Power Words
Any word spoken either mentally, or physically can be a power word. The determining factor as to its outcome is the intention behind the word. A power word is just that, a word. One, single word. Not a string of them. More than one word is an affirmation, not a power word and although affirmations are powerful, they are not the same as the power word.
Affirmations are designed to manifest their energies at some future time where the power word is designed to energize immediately. Energy, energize, stamina, might, strong, mighty, competent, skilled, acceptable, beautiful, beware, invisible, talent, love, health, find, notice, desirable, hearty, hungry, satisfied, content, happy, comfortable, easy, relaxed, forgiving, energy, awake, and on and on and on and on.
Virtually any word can be a power word if that be your intent. Note that power words are spoken mentally. It is important also to realize that you have a volume of degrees when speaking mentally. Mentally you can shout, or you can whisper. Sometimes you want to shout the word, other times, whisper it. You will know as you realize you have that ability.
Obviously if you are using a power word to relax, be comfortable or to sleep, you want to whisper it, not shout it. Sitting in a dentist"s chair waiting for a drill, to shout the word relax will not work. Whispering the word however will send you off immediately into a pleasant state of comfort.
another article about power words - I like reading what different people say about the same concept. So here is a second one and it is saying the same thing but it might ring differently for you. Who knows. Read on and reinforce the message at least. At best you found a new tool for your tool box. More power to you. Adelle
Let's look again at the word wealthy. When using positive affirmations we would say to ourselves,
"I am wealthy."
Change the word wealthy into wealth and we now have a Power Word. Now we say to ourselves, "wealth."
In quiet contemplation we think about the concept of wealth and what it means to us. What kind of lifestyle changes would we have if we had wealth. Where would we live, what would we drive, what cause would we donate part of our wealth to.
By just thinking about the concept of wealth you're instructing your conscious mind to tell your subconscious mind to personalize what the word means to you. You create in your subsconscious your reality of the word. You leave no doubt as to what the word encompasses without having to try to fool your subconscious mind into believing you already have it.
I remember when I was first introduced to Power Words. At the time I was running for political office as a Libertarian and a debate against my republican and democrat opponent was on the horizon. For about a week before the event I spent my quiet time just thinking about the Power Word, freedom.
When it came time for the debate I was on fire. Never before had I been able to convey my beliefs, based on freedom, as eloquently and passionately as I did that evening.
As many of you know, I'm also a baseball umpire. After having the success with the Power Word, freedom, I decided to use the Power Word concept in my umpiring. I decided on the word "confidence."
I thought about what it would be like to work a game confidently. I thought about getting into the proper position to make the right call. I thought about knowing all the rule interpretations and what it would be like explaining a rule to a coach. The Power Word concept worked again!
The 2001 baseball season was my best season ever (although there are some people out there who would disagree). As the season progressed I became more confident in my game and I am now considered in the top echelon of umpiring at the youth level.
I experienced these successes not by lying to my conscious mind by telling it something that isn't true, but instead by laying the groundwork in the subconscious through conceptual thinking and creating the atmosphere by which the successes were attainable.
Using affirmations in conjunction with the words, "I am" can be self-sabotaging and lead to frustration, confusion and self-doubt. Unfortunately, this is the concept that many of us have been taught. And even more unfortunately, the use of this concept is what is holding back many of us on our personal development journey, and even leading some into abandoning the journey all together.
Practice the concept of Power Words. Here's what I do. I choose a new Power Wordd each week, and during my quiet time I contemplate what the word means to me. Below is a list of some of the Power Words I consider important to my personal development. You can use the same list or modify it. As long as you get rid of positive affirmations and replace it with POWER WORDS!
