Creating Daily Affirmations

Affirmations can help us to achieve our wildest dreams, and they are especially effective when they can be read out loud. Creating affirmations for ourselves is not difficult, and when used on a daily basis they have tremendous power. Yet not many people actually use them.

Why? Many people feel silly saying things to themselves out loud – especially if the affirmations are read out in front of a mirror – but once you understand the power they can have over your life, you may change your mind and decide that feeling a little silly is a small price to pay for achieving our biggest goals.

To create a daily affirmation, you must first think about something you want very much to have in your life. It may be something tangible – a new car, a new job, perhaps a new home – or it may be a quality, such as having more self confidence, or to be more patient with others.

Whatever your affirmation will be about, you should take care to word it in a positive manner – and as if it already exists. So for example, let’s suppose you would like to be more self confident. Your affirmation might go something like this:

“I am a confident, outgoing, bubbly person. I am happy in a crowd, and equally happy meeting new people. I am never nervous to go out on my own. I can hold a good conversation with anyone, and I always enjoy the company I am with.”

Ideally you should say this out loud at least twice a day – and preferably while standing in front of a mirror. You will feel self conscious to begin with, but it’s the quickest and easiest way to start using the power of affirmations to bring about whatever it is you want in your life.
