Day 2 Kujichagulia Self-Determination Take a deep breath and focus on your determination.

Remember the last time someone positive or negative operating at a low or high vibration motivated you into action.

Imagine what you have promised yourself.

That person,

Your family,

Or your community today.

Breathe in self-determination.

Let go of procrastination Let go of procrastination Feel free to recite or repeat after me.

I take 100% responsibility for my life.

I accept myself during ease and strife.

I am more than my job where I live or what I wear.

I am the only one who has these fingerprints.

I am uniquely determined and I am rare.

I am the destiny I choose to embrace.

I am whatever I see staring me in the face.

I have a bias towards actions and I'm running this race.

I can depend on myself for my success.

I love setting goals or promises because they manifest.

I am infinitely successful and my confidence will last.

I am in this moment right now making peace with my past.

The mental shackles are coming off here.

I am easily releasing all fear.

I say my chosen name with clarity and self-respect is in my tone.

Every day I make my own choices so I stay in the empowerment zone.

If I get tired or angry I remember each challenge is just a test.

My standards are high because I love to deliver my very best.

Gucci chocolat is self-determination.

We will weigh this principle carefully and give grace a shade.

I know each challenge is just a test.

My standards are high I deliver my best Thank you for watching!
