How to Create Powerful Affirmations That Really Work
Do affirmations work? Well, in a nutshell ‘Yes’. So what is an affirmation? It’s a positive thought or statement that you repeat to yourself. It’s so simple you might not think that affirmations work. Select an area that you want to improve and write your affirmation. What these positive statements are doing is reinforcing your subconscious mind. Here are some examples. “I am a money magnet, money is attracted to me.” “I am losing weight, I feel good, and I look great.” Affirmations can be used for anything you desire.
To create affirmations – focus on what you want – not on what you don’t want. You should only be focusing on the result that you want. You may have to think about it a little bit – but the more precise you are with your affirmations the better the results.
Here are four steps for great affirmations:
1 – Do not use negative words like don’t, won’t, or am not. Make your affirmation as if you already have your results. A positive statement will encourage you look ahead but a negative statement makes you relive your past. Which statement sounds better? “I am not sick”, or “I am getting better and feel better everyday.” Which one would you use for getting results?
2 – Affirmations seem to work more effectively if you say them out loud or write them. Of course, when you can’t do either of the above you can think your affirmation.
3 – Repetition is the key. Whenever you find yourself going into a negative thought pattern, start repeating your affirmation.
4 – Video affirmations are now possible though some very low cost computer software. The saying a picture is worth a thousand words might be updated with a positive video is worth a million words. They can be downloaded on to your iPod, used for a screen saver which makes video affirmation possibilities endless. You have the best of all worlds when you use pictures, sound and positive statements.
