Tips for Practicing Positive Affirmations
- Express affirmations in the present tense, such as “I am” or “I have.” By framing them this way, you’re tapping into your subconscious to feel what it feels like to have or be at the end result you want. Repeat them with significance and belief, allowing them to resonate each time. Feel the things you affirm while speaking the affirmation out loud.
- Couple Affirmations with Action: Affirmations are the first step of change, but your end result is only achieved with the belief and action to support what you affirm. Repeating the phrase “I am successful” won’t bring you success on its own. But believing in your success, and activelying taking steps with the intent and feeling of being successful will solidify the affirmation and secure your success.
- Consistency Is Key: The magic of positive affirmations lies in consistency. As you affirm positively each day, your mindset will naturally gravitate toward positivity. You can choose to start your day in a positive and happier mindset by simply reminding yourself. Kickstart your day with affirmations, and with time, it will become part of your daily routine.
