Harness the power of words in your life

Talking is as natural to most people as breathing. On many occasions our words are spoken without conscious thought; in fact, we rarely stop to think about what we are saying. Thousands of words to come out of our mouth every day while our thoughts, opinions, judgments and beliefs are freely expressed. However, we often do not realize the positive or negative effect these words have on ourselves and the people around us.

Words have tremendous power. Words convey energy and a message that generates a reaction in others. Everything you say has an effect on the world. Anything you say to another person will have some kind of effect on that person. We are constantly creating something, be it positive or negative with our words.

The reaction to our words often comes back to us multiplied. For example, if I say words of judgment to a person, they will judge me as well, probably more intensely, since their judgment has the pain or anger caused by my attached words. Words of kindness and acceptance will generate a warm and appreciative reaction from a person. That person’s response to the words will be stronger because they will have the emotion created by the attached words. The power of words has a ripple effect on our lives and on those around us.

I recently came across the work of Dr. Emoto and his studies on water crystals. He took water samples, froze them, and took pictures of the water crystals. Then he wrote words on jars of water taken from the same source. The crystals formed in the vials that had positive words, such as love and gratitude, were beautiful. However, the crystals in the vials with negative words like hate and evil were very different, and the water did not even form crystals in some cases. The experiments were carried out using words from different languages, and also by scientists who had no knowledge of what the words meant. The results were similar. More information can be found by watching the movie “What The Bleep Do We Know”. Although the concepts of quantum physics are difficult for me to understand, the findings of this study on water crystals have had a profound impact on me. The human body is known to be composed of up to ninety percent water. If words had such a significant impact on water crystals, what is the impact of positive and negative words on our bodies?

An important key to success in life is understanding the power of words. A word is an eternalized thought. Our thoughts have a great effect on us even if they are internal. What we think affects the way we live our life, it affects our emotions, our attitudes and our behavior. However, a spoken thought has even more power. It can never be withdrawn; it comes out of our mouth and it will take effect. Our words have even more power than our thoughts because they affect not only us, but people and the world around us.

Successful people take control of their words, rather than letting their words control them. They are more aware of their thoughts and words and the power they unleash. Successful people understand that they need to speak positively rather than negatively in order to see success. Successful people are characterized by the words they speak. They know the importance of speaking words that will build self-esteem and confidence, build relationships, and develop possibilities. They speak words of affirmation, encouragement, love, acceptance, and appreciation.

To see a more personal success, the words we say must be aligned with what we want to see happen in our life: our vision and our dreams. Your words can determine your destiny. Even more important, your words can make a positive difference to the people you interact with every day. Before speaking, ask yourself: Is what I am about to say going to encourage the listener? Will it inspire, motivate, and build momentum for them? Will it dissolve fear and create security and trust? Will I create a positive or negative domino effect by saying these words? Let us be determined to unleash the power of words for positive change.
