Create Your Own Reality with a Paintbrush
 
How to use  art and affirmations to Get Rid of  What You Don't Want & Focus on What You DO  Want  !
   
Imagine if you could erase all the negative stuff with one swipe - well you can!   
 
Don't like something  ?  Scrub it out.
Not what you want   ?  Redesign it. 
 
Affirmations work and are very powerful but I'm not one to wait around while my subconscious sifts through the anti-goal stuff and sometimes you need more  - some physical action  that feels like you're stirring the pot, rattling the cage and getting immediate action and releasing the  frustration that builds while you learn the ropes.    
 
Self Help books and 'The Secret'  tells us  we need to focus on what you want. 
Never focus on what you don't want.     Ever ! 
I always thought that was true until I realised that you need to focus on it briefly in order to totally ditch the old Dinosaur thinking.   How else will you break the stranglehold that stops you from succeeding ?
 
What can you do when it all turns pear shaped,  when it doesn't all flow in miraculous harmony like its supposed to,  where is your love, peace and harmony then ?
  
Sages have said  that the pen is mightier than the sword,  the paintbrush may even be  mightier  than both as it can be an amazing tool to create exactly the life you want.  
  
When you make a mistake  writing you cross it out.
When you louse up on your  computer  you delete it & start again. 
 
Well, surprise people. There is no difference !! 
 
What follows is my own creative and active, very simple  method to redesign your thinking while having fun and being creative at the same time.  Who knows what masterpiece you may turn out in the process !  
 

How to do it: 
Prepare yourself for change - if you like theatre by all means don a tall purple hat and cape and caper about on the lawn at midnight first - you may even make an unscheduled appearance on YouTube ! 
 

Write  down or make a visual representation of  what you don't like about your life or what you don't want to have in it - here you have to make some choices and prioritise if you have heaps !

                        
Pick  the tool of your choice and rank the tools according to  how you feel the size of your problem or block is. If you feel it's a small block use pencil,  for a larger block use crayon or pastel  and  just cross, scrub out or scribble over the word you have written or heavy paint if you feel the urge!
 
 
This is where it gets interesting - you may find that you are starting to go into full throttle with your scrubbing out.   Notice how you are feeling.     Still feeling  annoyed ?
Pick up a paintbrush and splosh  paint and literally paint the problem out of existence.  

You've all heard of  whitewash ?    Buy yourself a tub of white gesso  ( that covers anything miles better than bandaids !)  and whitewash over your word or block or problem  - its gone,  right ? 
 
Now you have a perfectly blank slate that you can design to your own specifications !  

A custom designed life  ?    your custom designed life ?
A possibility ?       Definitely !  No problem.

The Universe and your subconscious loves symbolic gestures and this is a powerful symbolic way to reach it and you will  enjoy the fun side and enter into the spirit of it all and it will help you to achieve your goals.   
 
Now is the first day of the rest of your life - metaphorically you are starting completely afresh. Pick up your tools of choice and fill in your dreams and desires.  Have fun doing this,  embellish your words with colour, paint in what you want, leave out what you don't want and introduce your affirmations to help you on your way now that you have ditched your negative thoughts and become a magnet for all that you desire  - no limits.     

Sample affirmations:
I always have enough money for what I want to do
Everything unfolds at the right time and place for me
I am radiantly healthy
My inner vision is clear and focused
I am a creative person

 On my internet journeying I came across  a really neat site:

More ideas: Use cuttings and journal entries to reinforce your new thinking, save clippings and visual representations  of your dream life and place them where you can continually see them to help you to be in the moment and feel that you already have what you wish and  act as if you have already achieved it.
