Effective affirmations are a powerful tool for communicating with yourself at a very deep level. If you use affirmations for a long time as a means of self-help and self-development, they will help you harmonize your actions and goals. The beauty of using these positive affirmations to motivate and move forward is that they allow you to better understand what you want and give you the wisdom to accept that there are likely to be many unexpected twists and turns on the road to your goal! Your affirmations can always be revised and adjusted in accordance with your changing needs, as they contribute to the achievement of goals, but are not a rigid framework of what these goals are or should be.
Steps
Part 1
Start with introspection- Find the main message you get when you focus on these negative qualities and criticisms. It could be something broad, like "I am not worthy" or "I am not capable." These are the irrational leaps that our emotional self is prone to when we disappoint ourselves or others.
-
Pay attention to what your body is telling you about these repeated statements. Where in the body do you notice any sensation when you attract this statement? Do you feel, for example, tightness or fear in your heart or stomach?
Ask yourself if this underlying belief is beneficial to your life. If not, what will be its inspiring replacement? Now, when you look at your shortcomings and understand in what strengths you must learn to believe in, you must form new ideas about your potential.
Affirmations must be personal. Use pronouns such as “I,” “my / my / my / mine,” or write your name in affirmations. This increases the level of commitment and confidence in statements.
Don't write too many affirmations. It's better to write better-quality affirmations that have a deeper impact on you than to write affirmations that fit your every goal. This will force you to focus better on a few core beliefs that will affect all of your specific concerns.
Find a quiet place where you can be alone and tune in to your inner voice. When you create affirmations, you need to clear your mind and focus on the aspects of your life in which you want to change. Take your time and feel in your body a deep connection with your intention to make a difference.
Make a list of what you have always considered your negative qualities. Include on your list any criticism from others that seems to be ingrained in your mind.
Part 3
Situational affirmations-
Try affirmative action language. Focus on exactly what you want, not what you want to change. Active phrasing (“I am,” “I can,” “I will," “I choose”) will help you feel closer to your goals.
- For example, instead of writing “I do not suffer from insomnia”, it is better to choose “I am completely free from insomnia”. In the second example, we do not have “I suffer”, but we have “completely free”. The phrase carries the same message, but in a more positive way.
-
Cultivate an attitude of opportunity, not difficulty. Using reactive phrases will subtly hint that the world is working against you. These are phrases such as “I hope”, “I will try” and “I must”.
- Affirmations that follow all of the above rules will be as follows:
- "I (personally) show (present) that I am 100% alive (positive) by thinking, speaking and acting with great enthusiasm (emotional)."
- “I am (personal) now (present) enjoying (emotional) my light and mobile (positive) weight of 80 kilograms.”
- “I am deeply satisfied (emotionally) that I (personal) respond (present) with wisdom, love, firmness and self-control (positive) when children misbehave.”
- Affirmations that follow all of the above rules will be as follows:
Think about what you want for yourself. These could be situations, habits, and characteristics that you would like to change. Now you need to imagine what the situation would be if your goals in these areas were achieved. Write these goals down as affirmations, expressing them in a way that will continue to generate the most positive and emotional impact in you.
Use bright details. Just like using vocabulary that evokes emotion in you, vivid details can also help you personalize your affirmations. As humans, we relate more closely to specific situations. Try to avoid abstract expressions, as it will be more difficult for you in the present to feel what it would be like if the affirmation worked.
1. Make affirmations so that they make you feel positive. There should be no resistance. Your formulas for happiness should lead you and motivate you to harmonious change.
2. Be sure to use pronouns such as "Me", "Me", "I" in affirmations. This is important because you need your presence in these cherished formulas. This is one of the secrets of the effectiveness of positive attitudes. Don't forget about it.
I know that my actions will lead me to success, for I deserve it.
The people around me love me, and I answer them in kind.
3. Create new thoughts in the present. In no case, don't use the future. Otherwise, the affirmations won't work. If you say, for example, "I will be healthy." It is not known when this "will" will come. Perhaps never. Instead, say "I am healthy."
4. If resistance arises, change the formula to incremental improvement. What does this mean? Sometimes, if a person, for example, has a serious illness, then it is difficult to believe in the formula “I am healthy”. In this case, it is better to use the affirmation "My health is improving every day." Or, if a person wants to become rich, you can say to yourself: "I am getting rich" or "My income is constantly increasing."
5. Make short affirmations so that you can repeat them constantly, like a mantra. 2-10 words are enough. Short formulas will quickly gain power in your subconscious. Later, when you have mastered positive thinking, you can apply longer attitudes or whole attitudes.
Have you made an affirmation? Good. Now read on to make them work. Follow the rules and you will succeed.

"Affirmations make the brain turn on, and the legs go" - this is how I answer if someone asks to briefly explain why affirmations are needed and what they do.
In more detail, an affirmation is an affirmative short phrase with which you can program your subconscious mind to accomplish and achieve what you want.
This phrase, repeated every day, as it were, includes a "start" in the body and - legs follow the path leading to the fulfillment of the goal. On this path, by a happy coincidence, helpers meet, and as a result, a dream also comes true. It would seem that there is nothing complicated: you take a phrase that symbolizes your goal and repeat it day after day. But it was not there. There are certain rules and tricks for building such program phrases.
How to correctly formulate your affirmation?
The more unique and individual an affirmation is, the easier it is to “process” and run it. Take any of your goals (not from a book, not from another person, etc.). What do you want? How do you see the result? This result is your goal. For example, I want to publish a book of my poems. The result is a book. Affirmation "I will present the book of my poems in November 2018". That is, the affirmation corresponds to a specific goal (book) and is formed directly for this goal (to publish and present a book).
Determination of the parameters for achieving the goal. By what parameters specifically will it become clear to you that the goal has been achieved? “I make a lot of money” or “I make enough money” can be repeated endlessly, but the concept of “a lot”, “enough” is too vague. For some, a lot of $ 100, and for others, a million. More specific phrases work much better. For example, the phrase “I make $ 2,000 every month” is more specific.
Firstly, there is an amount that will satisfy the needs, secondly, there is a clearly formulated period of time for which a person will receive his money, and thirdly, specific phrases make it possible to clearly understand whether a result has been achieved or not. Of course, that doesn't mean common phrases don't work. Just when you say “I earn enough” it is difficult to understand when the goal is achieved, when “enough” will come. Generalized phrases carry too many factors, and until these factors are put in order, it can take a lot of time. And even worse - a person can just-on-just be disappointed. And add to yourself instead of a positive attitude, a bunch of negative ones.
I have one example from my own life when a phrase was vague, not concretized. It was in 2011. I was invited to a master class at Oriflame. Naturally, they talked about the delights of cosmetics and big earnings. But what got me hooked was the opportunity to go to the Venice Ball in Switzerland. I came home. She took a sheet and wrote on it in large letters "I'm going to the Venice Ball." The affirmation worked. But ... Since it was not drawn up correctly, I did not go to the ball in Switzerland. Six months later, I moved to another city and completely forgot about the ball. And a year later I found myself at the Venice Ball, but in the Dnieper. The most important thing I got from the ball: I walked the red carpet to a meeting with photo and video cameras.
Brevity. Short phrases penetrate the subconscious faster. Plus, they're easier to remember. An affirmation that is pleasing to the ear, evoke more positive emotions, which helps the brain to quickly engage in work to achieve the goal. If the affirmation causes rejection, it probably won't have a positive effect.
The phrase should start with yourself: "I ...", "Me ...", "Me .." (ie, in the first person). Affirmations can only concern the person himself, you personally, but not your environment. Nobody has the right to decide for another person. And such an affirmation is unlikely to work. For example, “My husband loves me” is an incorrectly constructed affirmation. That's right - “I am loved by my husband”, “I am comfortable with my husband”, etc.
Here and now. Use only the present tense when creating your affirmation. When we ask for something in the future (or in the past), the brain takes it literally. In the past, it means that it has already passed and the person does not seem to need. In the future, it is not clear when this future will come, because the brain is just waiting. Instead of "I can sing well" - "I sing well" (now and here). Or instead of “I found good work"-" I work as a teacher at Moscow State University "(here and now).
"Not", "Would", "I can", "I will." In phrases we avoid the words “I can”, “I will” and the particles “not”, “would”. First, an affirmation can only be positive. For example, instead of "I don't smoke" - "I hate smoking cigarettes." Secondly, as we already know, the affirmation should be specific, and “would” introduces ambiguity, the brain begins to get confused and generally rejects the given phrase. Therefore, instead of "I would like to live in Paris" - "I live in Paris." Thirdly, "I can" does not mean that I will do, but "I will" - generally speaks about the future, which is not known whether it will come. Therefore, instead of “I can buy a car” - “I have a red Audi S8”, instead of “I will ride a motorcycle” - “I ride a Yamaha Virago motorcycle”.
Resource. Affirmation works well when it carries the resource for change. Why would you make $ 2,000 a month? Why love your husband? Why sing well? Why do you need a car or motorcycle for you? What will it give? What will you get? If your affirmation fills you with strength, gives you a feeling of confidence, security, calmness, raises your lowered hands, saying it, you feel harmony, support in life, you are filled with joy, etc., then this is exactly the affirmation that is “your ideal ".
Emotions. Using the words "easy", "joyfully", "with pleasure", "comfortable" in your formulations allows you to feel positive emotions that can fill you with enthusiasm and inspire.
How to use affirmations correctly?
Say the affirmation regularly: in the morning after waking up and in the evening before bed. For example, I do this in the bathroom. It is possible in front of the mirror, looking into your eyes. At first, you will feel internal resistance, as consciousness senses that the words are not true. This is a normal reaction of the body. You just need to resist and continue.
Be sure to speak out loud so that you can hear yourself.
Repeat several times (French psychologist Emile Couet recommends 20 times).
Emotions. Unlike the classical practice of self-hypnosis, where you need to speak with concentration, without unnecessary emotions, so that words mechanically fall into the subconscious, affirmation must not only be reinforced with emotions (I wrote about this above), but it must also cause strong emotions at the time of pronouncing, then the affirmation works many times faster. After all, when you “burn” with your goal, you are not indifferent to it, you need it, the brain “thinks” that it is something vital - and “leads” us to the achievement of our desire. That is, the stronger and brighter the emotions, the easier and faster the affirmation penetrates into the subconscious. For me, emotions are motivation. The affirmation has to make you feel good when you say it. If you feel uncomfortable, keep working on the text until you feel that this is yours.
Without "all at once". In order not to create a mess in your head, it is better to say the same affirmation. The best effect is achieved by concentrating on one thing. The more targets, the more the dispersion, and as a result, the less the result. Work first one affirmation (at least a month), then the second, etc. You can work out about 4-12 affirmations per year. It is best to repeat the phrase for 2-3 months.
No vinaigrette. It is worth saying the same phrase, adhering to one version of this affirmation. Not that today one phrase, tomorrow another, but with the same meaning. No vinaigrette in the head and in speech.
Out of spirit and without faith. If you are in a bad mood or you don’t believe in the power of affirmations, it’s better to put the affirmation aside for a while and work with the reasons for your protest. Without positive emotional reinforcement, affirmations either do not work at all, because your feelings are opposed to what you are saying, or they can lead to the opposite.
You can sing your affirmation (come up with your own song or put words on a well-known tune), you can mentally concentrate on it, you can write it down many times. This is in addition to the main one: to the pronunciation out loud in the morning and in the evening. Also, affirmations can be beautifully designed and hung in a prominent place, for example, on a mirror, on a wall, make a screensaver on a phone, computer, etc.

What are affirmations?
Affirmations are so-called positive statements that emphasize the specific needs of a particular person. Affirmations must necessarily be aimed at changing the way of thinking and belief in a positive outcome. Affirmations can be said both aloud and mentally, to oneself.
For the first time the concept of "affirmation" was mentioned in the Small Encyclopedic Dictionary, published in 1899-1909 under the authorship of F. A. Brockhaus and I. A. Efon. It speaks of affirmations as positive judgments as distinct from negative ones.
The famous French scientist Émile Couet believed that if a person repeats the same words many times, they will begin to evoke in him the corresponding ideas about him, and these ideas will become true for him, turning into reality.
This scientific assumption is based on the fact that a person is controlled mainly by his imagination, and any thought that penetrates into consciousness strives to become truth and be expressed in reality.
Every person who madly and passionately strives for something can achieve this if he tells himself about it using the correct affirmations.
Emile Couet himself used the following affirmation in his life: "Every day I feel better and better in all respects." Subsequently, many different affirmations were developed, many of which were even used to treat certain diseases.
What are affirmations used for?
Definitely, a person's life is greatly influenced by his subconscious attitudes and beliefs. Quite often it happens that it is they who cause fears, mistakes and even failures of a person.
A person needs affirmations in order to reformulate their negative attitudes, changing their negative charge to a positive one, thus influencing their subconsciousness. Thus, improving the psycho-emotional state and creating the prerequisites for positive changes in life.
How do affirmations work?
The main task of affirmation is to replace destructive thoughts and attitudes in the subconscious with constructive ones. However, most likely, no one will be able to say definitely about how affirmations work, because affirmations are associated with the work of the subconscious, the principles of interaction of which with the world are still an unsolved mystery.
The action of affirmations begins with the systematic repetitions of the same positively directed phrases, in which our subconscious begins to believe over time.
Changes begin in mood changes, and reactions to external circumstances also change. And all these changes are positive. Following new positive thoughts in the life of a person who correctly applied affirmations, favorable events begin to occur.
How to formulate affirmations correctly?
Of course, you can use affirmations composed by other people, for example, you can find good affirmations for yourself in books on psychology by Louise Hay and other authors.
So, correct affirmations should be formulated only in the affirmative. For example, "I'm happy." Remember no questions or doubts.
When making up the correct affirmation, avoid using the "not" particle. The affirmation “I am not poor” is perceived by our subconscious mind as “I am poor”. The correct affirmation will only be positively colored and will be something like this: "Every day I am getting richer."
Moreover, the affirmation should assume the present, not the future. “I will or will become a happy person” is a wrong affirmation. The subconscious mind will perceive this accordingly. The correct affirmation in the present tense will sound like this: "I am in the mood for positive and happiness."
A correct affirmation cannot contain phrases like: "I can or I want."
By saying this affirmation, you are communicating your intention to the world. And the world already knows that you can do something, and knows all your needs even better than you.
Therefore, you should emphasize in your affirmation that you are already who you want to be, or are doing what you want to do. Let your correct affirmation have the phrases "I strive", "I always", etc.
A correct affirmation is directed by a person only to himself, because this is work on yourself and your life. There is no need to try to direct the action of the affirmation to other people. An affirmation should only be beneficial, not harmful. Invest only all your positive feelings and emotions in your affirmation.
How do I apply affirmations?
Applying affirmations is very simple. But before we talk about it, let me give one good advice: take blank sheet A4 paper and divide it in half. In the left half, write everything that worries you at the moment.
It can be anything: fears, phobias, insecurity, low self-esteem, negative perception of the world, etc. Think about what areas of your life you have problems and what you would like to fix. Put it in short phrases. For example, "I'm not sure of myself."
Once this list is compiled, reformulate the negative statements into the form you need. For example, "I am always confident in myself and my strengths." Make a second list.
After that, cut the sheet into two parts, leave the right one for yourself, and tear the left one. The rest is your most correct affirmation.
Apply your affirmations when your subconscious is most receptive - right after waking up and before bed, when you are almost asleep. To achieve the greatest effect, it is recommended to repeat each affirmation at least 10 times.
Working with affirmations should become your new good habit. Therefore, repeat your affirmations regularly, day after day, and good changes in your life will not be long in coming.
