3 Steps To Creating Effective, Powerful, Daily Affirmations

Updated: Nov 30, 2021

You have it in you.

You possess the power to be the person you want to be, and the strength to make your aspirations a reality. Feed your mind with positivity through daily affirmations - simple, confident statements of aspirations in their completed states.

#1 Begin affirmations with "I am".

In doing so, you turn your affirmation into a statement of identity. The more you affirm yourself, the more you become what you aspire to be.

#2 Keep it positive.

Declare what you want to achieve, not what you don’t want to come true.

Instead of saying “I won’t be scared when asked to speak in public,” change it to “I am a confident and calm public speaker."

#3 Write it in the present tense.

Declare your affirmations as if they’re true and unfolding right now. Affirm yourself with “I am beautiful,” instead of “I will be beautiful after I reach my target weight.”

By declaring outcomes as true and taking place, you’re more likely to engage in behaviors that will make your aspiration a reality.

Affirmations to start the day:

  • "I can be all that I envision myself to be."

  • “Every action allows me to become the best version of myself.”

  • “I am worthy, and I am enough.”
