How Are You? “I’m Blessed”
“I’m blessed.”
That’s always my answer. I’m blessed. I’m living a wonderful life and it’s truly a blessing to be alive and be in the position that I am in.
Now, my coworkers especially, always anticipate that answer from me.
Anytime I go to answer with even “I’m excellent” or “I’m doing great” I’ll get a weird look in response. They go, “What, you aren’t blessed?”
Yes, I am.
It’s a core part of me now, I believe it so deeply after consistently responding in that fashion for over 2 years.
In his book “Awaken the Giant Within,” Tony Robbins explains the impact of using transformational vocabulary.
He writes, “When someone asks how you’re doing, instead of saying, ‘Okay” or “So-so,” knock their socks off by exclaiming, ‘I feel spectacular!’ As simplistic as this sounds, it creates a new pattern in your neurology — a new neural highway to pleasure.”
