    Here are some "I am" rants for my sucky day at work:
    I am...the shift supervisor
    I am...not going to take your crap
    I am...going to bash my head against the wall.
    *end of rant*
    For reality's sake, I am...not going to take it personally. I work in a high-stressful job that I love. Today, I just want to go home and get drunk and forget it all happened. BTW, I don't drink so that solves that problem.
    Thanks Dan, for helping me stay grounded.

    Dan man, I swear I was alert before watching this video.
    Aware about the scammy law of attraction crap and lack of strong scientific research on affirmations. All the cheesy ones that say "I an wealthy" "I am billionaire" etc.
    But man, you really gave another perspective on affirmations that I never saw by saying "enough" and going deep with the conversations in your head. This is as real as it gets man.
    Thank you for your videos, stay safe and healthy in these challenging times.

    This is wonderful Dan. I often wondered about this. I love your delivery and your right on point. Listening to this I realized that my Affirmations have evolved naturally into I am (fill in the blank). I recently left an office job and started my own business. I went from I can't do this (work for someone else) to I am a business owner. Saying things with love is a huge take a away and reminder to me. I definitely notice the difference it makes with my communication with others when I say things with love. Thank you so much. These communication tidbits are very helpful. P.S. your fur baby is adorable. 😍

    Thank you! I got off track during the pandemic .( yes, we’re coming up on 5 years ago.) I spent most of last year angry and living in fear. Everything I was terrified about came true because the election happened with the shocking results. I quit watching all news especially on RUclips. . I unsubscribed to all of it. Funny how things still pop up in my algorithm months later . I deleted all of my social media apps. I’ve really been habitually practicing my affirmations every day. I know they really work because wonderful things are already happening to me. I enjoyed this very much. Syntax is so important . Thank you . Just subscribed and hit that bell.

      I apologize its a bit confusing but bear with me, what I mean is :
      At some point in our lives we were trianed to obey in childhood and everyday we are teached by people. Like we create our own reality
      Many of times we missinterpret other people statements, facial movements, emotional state etc right? These may be false and wrong beliefs, one person could get into many perspectives when hes going through struggle or believing false believes. So one could get in the victim perspective, villain, judge, fixer etc.
      What I meant is getting in observer perspective which is more rational and less emotional of all those perspectives.
      Crying is a victim perspective, so example of a refraining in 3rd person, Observer perspective is:
      X was doing this when in room appeared Y. Y told X to .... X thought he done something wrong since he Y said ...'
      English it's not my native language, please let me know if you i understood my point.

What I would like to know more about is self talk when in upsetting situations in society. By society I mean at work and in public as well as during functions. What would help me is a lot of examples. This ....vs ...that. You also said something VERY important (can make the difference between a life of misery and a life of happiness ) : whatever you say, say it in a loving way” .I would love if you could do a series on these themes please

    I am on a Dan O'Connor bender today.
    My boss and VP are challenging to deal with. They say inappropriate things. All the time. In fact, I am a writer and I see this as an opportunity of how not to run a business. There is no lack of story. Example: my friend's & cqo-worker's grandson is becoming who he is. Pronoun: he/him. This information is mind blowing to them. The use of pronouns to describe oneself really irks them. So much so they have to comment rudely in front of her.
    The VP came right out and said (this is her go to phrase) "I don't understand." I said nothing because I do not want to waste a breath. She is a 2.

I can't force someone to hire me or like me or love me. I can value myself, but that still leaves me unfulfilled and robbed of the life I could have had. Pardon me for bursting your bullshit bubble.
