It seems like that mean old third grade teacher had a point when she disciplined you by making you write down fifty times that you wouldn’t talk in class anymore. Well, she almost got it right.

The Repetitive Writing mind technique is not as exciting as some of the other techniques, but its benefits far outweigh the ten minutes that it will take you to complete this task each day. Writing out your desires over and over again will further influence your subconscious mind.

This mind technique takes aspects from Affirmation Imprinting (creating powerful, effective statements of your desired outcomes) and Ideal Day Generation (unleashing the magic of writing down your thoughts and feelings).

Like I said earlier, the actual process of writing down your statements will become boring very quickly. I urge you to do it anyway. Is brushing your teeth fun? Hardly, but you do it anyway because you want your teeth to be and feel healthy (and you want to avoid shots and drills the next time you visit the dentist).

Remember how I said that the third grade teacher ALMOST got it right. She, like most people using affirmations, structured the statements incorrectly. She focused on the negative. Like when she told you to write the sentence “I will not talk in class” fifty times on the blackboard. As you already know, the subconscious sees in images and can’t visualize the word “not.” In the example I just gave you, all it recognizes and “sees” are images of “I”, “talk”, and “in class.”

The well-meaning teacher thereby reinforces the exact opposite behavior than she had intended. And guess what happened the next day? You got in trouble for talking in class again! And how did the teacher discipline you? You guessed it. She had you writing those sentences again, unknowingly reinforcing your negative behavior.

So let’s now put this information into practical application.

Action Plan for Repetitive Writing

Step 1: Pick a maximum of three behaviors you would like to change. Ideally, you would want to work on just one first, until you started to see your intended desires materialize, before moving onto other goals. And if you really want to accelerate the process, pick the same goal as the one you are working on with your Affirmation Imprinting.

Step 2: Make sure that your sentence is formatted properly. This is the exact same step you used when you created your affirmations. To recap, your sentence should be personal, positive, and present tense.

Step 3: Buy a spiral notebook. You will be using this to write your sentences in. Having a central place is much more effective than writing on whatever scrap of paper you happen to find. Sometimes you won’t remember if you wrote your sentences out that morning or not. Having one place to look to find out will solve this.

Step 4: Write the date at the top of the page and write your sentence over and over again on each line until it fills up the entire page. An average spiral notebook as between 25-30 lines per page side. From personal experience I find this to be the perfect amount of times to write your sentence.

You will do this exercise first thing each morning, and then again just before going to sleep at night. Once your subconscious mind fully absorbs the statement you are trying to send it and provides you with the tools to make it a reality, only then would you start with your next desired change.

In the next lesson, we will learn about another mind technique: Power Visualization.
