Why Daily Affirmations Will Change Your Life

And How To Make Them Fun, Easy and Effective!

We’ve all heard the saying “mind over matter”, and while it may have become overused and cliché, there is real truth to it. Even the CIA had conducted and released studies about the power of the human mind and it’s capabilities to bend metal and move objects. It honestly sounds like a science fiction movie, but it has been scientifically proven to be true (check out the official documents here). The mind is not something to underestimate.

We are powerful creatures. What we see, say, and absorb throughout our lives shapes the way we think about ourselves, others, and the world. If you grow up with a parent who constantly told you “life’s not fair, life’s not fair, life’s not fair”, then you will have the mindset that your life will never be fair, and that’s what will manifest for you. If every time you encounter a challenge and tell yourself “I can’t do this”, then failing will be inevitable.

Sounds pretty bleak right? Well here’s the good news. The same goes for the POSITIVE side of mind over matter. Which is why daily affirmations is such a game changer! When you change your self talk from negative to positive, you can completely up-level your confidence, your career, and ultimately your life. At the end of the day, you are what you think.

 

 

So, How Can I Effectively Do Daily Affirmations?

 

Here are some tips to start you out!

Daily affirmations are a powerful tool for self-improvement and positive thinking. Here’s a simple guide on how to incorporate them into your routine:

1. 1. Choose affirmations: Select specific statements that resonate with you and align with your goals and values. They should be positive, uplifting, and realistic. For example, “I am confident and capable,” or “I attract abundance and success.”

1. 1. Find a quiet space: Set aside a few minutes each day to focus on your affirmations. Find a peaceful environment where you can relax and concentrate without distractions.

1. 1. Repeat affirmations aloud: Stand in front of a mirror, look into your eyes, and speak your affirmations out loud with conviction. Repeat each affirmation several times, allowing yourself to truly believe and internalize their positive message.

1. 1. Use the present tense: Speak your affirmations as if they are already true. This will help your subconscious believe that what you are saying is factual. Try using statements that start with “I am”, “I have”, “My life is”, “My career is”, etc.

1. 1. Visualize your affirmations: As you recite your affirmations, imagine yourself already embodying the qualities or experiences mentioned. Visualize the positive outcomes and emotions associated with your affirmations.

1. 1. Write them down: Writing down your affirmations can further reinforce their power. Maintain a journal or create a list in your phone dedicated to your affirmations. This helps you solidify your commitment and serves as a reminder of what you’re working towards.

1. 1. Practice consistency: Consistency is key to the effectiveness of daily affirmations. Make it a habit to revisit your affirmations every day, ideally in the morning or before bedtime. Repetition and regularity aid in rewiring your thought patterns and beliefs over time.

Remember, daily affirmations work best when combined with action and a positive mindset. By consistently affirming your desired outcomes and reinforcing empowering beliefs, you can cultivate a more optimistic and confident mindset. Which in turn, can have a positive effect on your personal and professional life.
