Every day better and better

May 4, 2014

Even after I had learned there was a “better way” of being, doing, and choosing for myself, there were still days when I felt beaten down, and a few where I questioned if maybe I was wrong about all this stuff.One day, finding myself in the midst of circumstances that were not in my dreams, and certainly were not my passion, I wondered how I got there, and I began to feel my hope waver and my frustrations increase.That this was not where I wanted to be was clear, but choosing to feel negative about it was clearly not going to help me solve my problems.In years past, I had heard the affirmation (coined in the late 1800s by Émile Coué de la Châtaigneraie, a French psychologist), “Every day, in every way, I am getting better and better.”This suddenly came to my recollection and I began to repeat it out loud to myself. Every day, in every way, my life is getting better and better.I took a deep breath and kept going. I decided to substitute everything in my life that I was concerned about …Every day, in every way, the people I work with are getting better and better.Every day, in every way, our finances are getting better and better.Every day, in every way, my health is getting better and better.Every day, in every way, my family is getting better and better.Every day, in every way, my husband’s job is getting better and better.Every day, in every way, I am getting better and better.I smiled and continued to breathe deeply. Within minutes, I felt a positive shift in energy. My hope was renewed and I was able to make it a much better day.The truth is, in that moment, my life didn’t get any better, but it renewed my hope and reminded me of possibilities. Through repetition of this mantra, renewed feelings of faith and excitement began to transform my life.When I realigned myself with my desires and beliefs, it felt like heaven and earth, angels, and energies began to respond to this newfound hope, enabling me on this journey.Creating this website became part of the fulfillment of those hopes and dreams. And it all began with “Every day, in every way, life is getting better and better,” thus, the name for this website was born. This phrase offers hope and signifies improvement, one day at a time---not perfection, but daily improvement.Line upon line, precept upon precept. One step at a time on this journey we call life.<a href="http://everydaybetterandbetter.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Key-Gray1.jpg"><img src="http://everydaybetterandbetter.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Key-Gray1.jpg" alt="Key Gray" width="74" height="50" /></a>As you join me on this journey, you’ll learn <a title="My Journey" href="https://everydaybetterandbetter.com/about-me/my-journey-to-overcome-adversity/">where I came from and what qualifies me </a>to share this life-changing information with you.
