If you want to change your life. Start by checking your I AMs. 

I AM. These are two of the most important words in the English language. 

No other two words spoken together have more creative power to help us move forward or to keep us stuck playing out our same old story over and over again. 

Your I AMs are your foundation. Your I AMs are your identity. 

They are the private things you think about yourself. They are the public things you say about yourself. They define your capabilities. Your limitations. Your possibilities. 

Your I AMs are who you think you are. And who you think you are creates your life. 

So if your I AMs are this powerful, perhaps you should check in with yours from time to time. What do you believe to be true about you? 

A helpful way to discover your I AMs are is find a quiet time to journal and just start filling in the blank after the words I AM. 

Some of your I AMs might be labels or roles in your life. Such as: I AM a parent or I AM an employee- keep going past the surface definitions. Dig deeper. 

You might find you get to some I AMs that seem to limit you such as: 

I AM too old to start over. I AM unlucky in love. I AM not enough. 

Or they might not seem limiting at all - they might just seem to be true for you. 

You might say - well this is just the way it is. I do have this barrier - I was born into this family. I do have this limitation. This is who I AM. 

However, if you really want to change your life or create something new, you must learn to check in and question your I AMs. Especially those that you have just accepted as your truth. 

Are they really true? Where did you learn them? Could you design new I AMs? 

Try out new ones such as : I AM brilliant. I AM resilient. I AM loveable. I am capable of change. 

This process will feel unfamiliar and uncomfortable at first. Just keep checking and challenging your I AMs. This is Big Work- be kind and gentle with yourself. 

And remember… I AM can create something wonderful or keep you stuck. 

I AM can be the launching pad for your dreams. 

I AM can change lives. Are you ready to check your I AMs?
