The last time I was in my Chrysalis, I had affirmations tacked to every inch of the room. No bit of the ceiling or adjoining walls were empty. All available space was a reminder for me to be as exquisite as I could possibly be. Before I left for California, each one had to be taken down, and there wasn’t enough space for me to take every single coaster so I narrowed it down to the 200 most influential ones.

I’ve been back for a few weeks now and I haven’t put a single old one back up. But i just tacked my first affirmation to a barren space above my piano.

It reads: “I Will be the Greatest I Can Be”

The process of ingesting an affirmation into my soul goes a bit like this: Something inspires a resonant truth to rise from the depths of me, I assess the statement, alter it contextually, I write it down in marker on the back of a paper coaster, I tack it to the wall, I stare at it for a few minutes, it stays up for an indeterminate amount of time, and then like the anchoring of a rapidly growing seed the belief is cemented into my mind. At each stage, my understanding of the phrase deepens, but there is true beauty in this process.

I just tacked it to the wall, so I’m at the end of the initial experience, and from it, I’ve gained a sense of valiant determination. I WILL be the Greatest I can be. From it, I’ve gained a sense of pride and strength, I will be the GREATEST I can be. From it, I have gained vision and insight into the intention of my Higher Self, I WILL BE THE GREATEST I CAN BE!

I am excited to see how else this beautiful belief will blossom.
