You Don’t Need One Minute Miracles, You Just Need To Do A Little Every Day (And Here Is One Way To Start)

August 21, 2013 by Gene Monterastelli

I have written before on how I think the way we talk about one minute miracles is bad for the EFT community. One minute miracles aren’t bad, but I think they create a very unrealistic approach.

Just because we don’t have one minute miracles with all of our tapping doesn’t mean that it we need to do a huge amount in order to see change. Often it takes a little work every day.

One of the neatest examples of this that I have seen recently was in a link that Jen Dziura shared about a woman who taught herself to dance in just one year.

Here is the video proof:

It is amazing what doing a little work each day will do!

What To Do With Each Day?

Just because you decide to tap every day doesn’t mean that you know what to do or say when tapping. If you don’t know what you want to tap on try this:

I know that I need to do a little tapping each day…But right now I don’t know what to tap for…And I don’t know what words to say when I am tapping…The most important thing is the fact that I am taking the time right now to tap…By doing this I am getting the juices flowing and I am setting myself up to make progress…Even if nothing in particular comes to mind…The fact I am taking these few moments to tap will bring me peace…Bring me calm…Making it easier for me to make better choices for today.

If you tap in this way one of two things will happen. Either an issue that you need to tap on daily will come to mind OR you will still have blank mind but will feel great and ready to take on your day in a positive, calm way.

Either way it is a win!

    Gene,
    I just want to thank you so much from the depths of my heart.
    all of your articles are wonderful- I especially like this one on “What to Do With Each Day”. There are so many times I just know I need to tap but the reasons are obscure, so tapping to feel calm and centered really does wonders. You are so right, sometimes that “little nagging feeling” surfaces and I have a threaad to follow. Other times I just feel “soft within” and ready for the experiences that will unfold withi my day.
    Thanks you again for who you are
    Peace
    Cynthia
