Self
Improvement With Affirmations
Patricia Kopp
Affirmations are
very powerful tools that can be key in bringing about change in your
life, whether it is in the form of personal change or bringing new
situations into your life. Self-affirmations are healing, optimistic
messages that you give to yourself to counter your negative messages.
Affirmations
resemble visualization with mental images but words are used instead.
Words you say out loud, read or write each day that will help you
internalize what you want to be and what you hope to achieve.
Affirmations are self improvement prophecies that when visualized and
believed in will come true.
Just repeating the words is not enough. Affirmations are not magical
sentences that are said just a few times and then create miracles. For
affirmations to produce results, they should be repeated often with
feeling and conviction.
Affirmations are said starting with the words: “I am”, “I can”, and “I
will”. An I am affirmation is a statement of who you are such as I am
intelligent or I am creative. An I can affirmation is a statement of
your potential and power to change such as I can be strong or I can be a
winner. An I will affirmation is a statement of positive change that you
want to accomplish such as I will control my temper or I will handle
financial matters wisely today. Affirmations should always be stated in
a positive manner. An excellent way to use affirmations is to right down
30 of them, each on a separate index card. Each day of the month focus
on one affirmation. Keep the card with you displayed in your sight and
read it out loud during the day.
Affirmations help you to improve yourself because by nature humans are
compelled to follow what they believe in. What motivates you is your
belief in the end result. If you continually tell yourself something,
your inner self will make it become true. Affirmations strengthen
ambition, create new solutions and activate the subconscious mind in
order to make your affirmation come true. The affirmations you repeat
will become a positive habit that will result in self improvement of
your mind, body and soul.
