ASKffirmations is a term I coined in order to uniquely identify the technique that I have successfully applied in my own life and set it apart from other similar techniques. It isn't about asking better questions but rather to ask questions I already have the answers to, inserting them into the question, and asking "How did I do that?" which gives me the consciousness of already having my desire. What you possess in consciousness is given to you. Possess the fulfilled desire. There is inherent principle at work in the question that creates the experiences… the expression that the impression of the question makes. That is what ASKffirmations do. David Allen Foreword by Gail BoyntonWhat you are about to read has the potential of rocking your world if you are up to the task. I guarantee it will be well worth it.When David Allen asked me to write the Foreword of his new book about questions, of course, it came in the form of a question. "How did I find someone to write the foreword to my upcoming book so easily?" Even though I recognized that as one of his carefully worded, magical questions - from the desire fulfilled - I still couldn't resist guessing who it might be.After I offered a couple names, he finally said, "You! You were a part of it right from the beginning." He was kind enough not to mention that I had been hinting … frequently … in a not so subtle way … that I really wanted him to write a book about the questions technique. I had found it to be a powerful method to affirm my desire in the form of a question already answered … an answer already in existence. It felt very good, and I was seeing results all the time. Little did I know he had already started writing the book.Let me start by saying that ASKffirmations are delightfully easy! There is nothing complicated about them. However, there is something required of you if you want to reap the rewards of a fantastic life. You need to pay attention to David's succinct instructions and see them through. An important take-away for me is that you must be willing to change your Thoughts to be in harmony with Universal Principles. If you start there, you will find that your specific desires will fall into place. And ASKffirmations are the tools that will turbo-charge your creative imagination and give your Subconscious Mind, your Genie, the clarity of your desires.David provides the instruction and a wonderful list of examples to help you understand the structure of the most effective ASKffirmations. I read every single one of them, out loud, one right after the other. I highly recommend it because it felt awesome. I felt a stirring within … a progression upward in consciousness … as I read them. After you have read this amazing book, you will own a vital piece of understanding to your spiritual journey, and you will be inspired to create your own custom, life-changing ASKffirmations. THERE'S YOUR POWER!How did you know that ASKffirmations were your key to a magical life?
