How do affirmations work?

Affirmations are little sayings or sentences that you may say to yourself to encourage the growth of that desire. For example, let’s say you want to get more money. You may say to yourself, “I am willing, ready and able to receive money.” But in the back of your mind you might be saying, “This isn’t going to work. This is dumb.” In the end the negative comment is going to trump the positive affirmation.

 

Positive affirmations are a way of life. The way you think is the way you live. If you truly believe that telling yourself positive things won’t work and your life won’t improve, then it wont. However, if you tell yourself that all the positive affirmations will work and they will change your life, then they have a great chance of doing so.

 

Thinking is a habit. If you wanted to quit smoking, you would have to break that habit. Once you officially quit smoking you might have an improved quality of life. You might be able to run longer, stop coughing, have more energy, the list goes on. That is the same way affirmations work. Once you break the bad habit of how you used to think, you will start thinking more positively and positive energy will be attracted to you.

 

Your life will fill with opportunities, happiness, wealth, health and love, just to name a few. So how do you start with these positive affirmations? Well it’s quite simple. Just start telling yourself positive things!

 

Do you want to attract more love? Tell yourself this: I have come to this planet to learn to love myself more, and to share that love with all those around me.

 

Do you want to have more energy? Tell yourself this: Today, I am brimming with energy and overflowing with joy

 

Do you want forgiveness? Tell yourself this: I forgive those who have harmed me in my past and peacefully detach from them.

 

If you want a better marriage: My marriage is becoming stronger, deeper, and more stable each day.

 

If you want more self-love: I acknowledge my own self-worth; my confidence is soaring

 

If you want good health: I love my body and it is a powerhouse for fueling me. I respect and listen to what it needs.

 

If you want success: My obstacles are moving out of my way; my path is carved towards greatness.

 

These are just a few affirmations. You can find them everywhere and you can even create them yourself. It is so important to watch what you think, because that is what you become. Do not deny your power and your worth!
