When we want to intentionally form a new BELIEF or HABIT,Ā AFFIRMATIONSĀ are a great way to support the process.šŸ¦‹

Some people think that AFFIRMATIONS are a new concept. That is not true. Through the inner self-talkšŸ’¬, we are constantly affirming to ourselves what to doāœ…Ā and what not to doāŽ.

When we make an experience we do not want to make again, we repeatedly think about all the bad parts of the experience. By reliving it in our head🧠, we strengthen the belief that we do notĀ āŒĀ want to do it again in the future.

POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONSĀ are based on more on the same principle. They are just a more conscious approach deciding firstĀ what we want toĀ achieveĀ or what we want to have in our life.

And yes, you need to be able to BELIEVE that what you are telling yourself is TRUE and is POSSIBLEšŸ‘. If you feel strong objections within yourself, affirmationsĀ āŒwill not help you with forming new Beliefs and Habits.

AFFIRMATIONS ARE A POSITIVE STATEMENT. IT’S THEIR REPETITION THAT WORKS ON BREAKING OLD NEURAL PATHWAYS AND MAKING NEW ONES.

So how do you actually create those AFFIRMATIONSšŸ˜Ā šŸ‘‡

šŸ¦‹Ā Ensure That Affirmation only contains POSITIVE words. Avoid negations like ā€œdon’tā€, ā€œcantā€, or ā€œwontā€. Reframe the affirmation to what you are trying to achieve, instead of what you do not want in your life. Such as one of the positive affirmation for those who want to lose weight is:Ā I have the power to control my weight through healthyĀ eating and exercise.

šŸ¦‹Ā The affirmation must be in the PRESENTāœ…Ā tensešŸ˜€šŸ‘. No pastĀ āŽor FutureĀ āŽTense. Such as:Ā I am constantly moving towards my ideal weight.

šŸ¦‹Ā Form statements of FACTS of TRUTH. Words like ā€œmightā€ and ā€œcouldā€ are less powerful than words like ā€œAMā€ and ā€œDOā€.

šŸ¦‹Ā Be RELEVANT. If you are creating an affirmation for a specific situation, think about the things you want to achieve🤩.

Remember, when you want to form new beliefs and habits, affirmations alone will not be enough. They are more of a supportive tool which will work only and only ifĀ YOU WILL TAKE ACTION.Ā Without an inspired action, there is no chance you will succeed.šŸ’«
