Self-affirmations are the ‘self-talk” you give yourself every day. They are
based on your beliefs and with them you create your reality.
You can either use positive or negative communication. Both positive
affirmations and negative affirmations have the ability to influence your
life, your environment, and you. People who are highly successful program
their minds with affirmations, images, and visualizations of success then
back them up with action and persistence.
By using affirmations, images and words either consciously or
subconsciously you can create prosperity, abundance and success. Regular
use of positive affirmations helps you to reach goals and continue thinking
positively.
Structure of a Good Affirmation
Affirmations will only work if they are true! The structure of an affirmation
is very important. All effective affirmations are in the first-person format—
they all start with I. Make sure your affirmations are in the here and now!
They should be present tense. Many people resist doing this and in doing
so diminish the power of an affirmation. Most affirmation statements start
with the words I am. This simple statement is truly powerful. You get to
determine what kind of person you are. Other affirmations may start with,
I have, I can, I act, I choose.
To begin, take a full positive inventory of your attributes, strengths, talents,
and competencies and start with a focus on those things you have already
mastered. If you are very good at keeping a clean and orderly house you
could say, “I am an organized housekeeper.”
Next you can create affirmations for qualities you are trying to develop.
For example, if your goal is to have a positive attitude you would say, “I am
a positive person.” This concept also works for physical goals, such as, if
you desire to make more money, you would say, “I am a money magnet.”
Repeat your affirmations daily and take time to consider what each
statement means in your life. See and feel yourself living the experience of
being rich or successful or thin or whatever it is you are trying to manifest
in your life. The better you can see yourself living the life of your dreams
the more quickly your positive affirmation will come true.
Affirmations, when worded correctly and emotionally charged, tap into
the unlimited creative power of your subconscious mind, and manifest
your desires.
Conclusion
Affirming a goal regularly keeps it front and center of your thinking. People
tend to accomplish what they think about, especially when thinking about
it properly. Implementing positive affirmations into your self-talk can
result in a positive attitude, optimism, and can motivate you toward
emotional growth and progress.
