What do you think of when I start to talk about how to use daily affirmations? Perhaps you immediately reject the idea as something that someone weak needs. Or perhaps you've met people who have yellow post-it notes dotted around their homes to remind them of the state of mind they are striving to achieve.
Norman Vincent Peale's famous book "The Power Of Positive Thinking" uses some of the most famous affirmations that people know. But one of his most famous affirmations is "I can do all things through Jesus Christ our savior who strengthens me...". The fact that it's quoted from Philippians 4:13 gives away more about what the essence of an affirmation is and where they come from. It shows that some of the most fundamental positive statements we use are derived from ancient texts and thoughts.
Affirmations can be used as often as you would like, I suggest that you set some time aside every day to focus on your desires and thoughts. Getting in the habit of doing this on a daily basis will promote change and you will be pleased with the results.It is easy to slip back into old patterns, so once you have seen good things occur in your life it is necessary to continue with your daily affirmations. Create the habit of thinking positively and be aware of your thoughts and desires.
Be sure that the positive affirmations that you are using are stated correctly and apply to your own personal situation. Some people even prefer to use a guide to help them with their daily routines. In our world of modern technology, there are many resources available to assist you with this process. You can even use a computer program to create your affirmations! These types of programs asses your desires and wants and create daily affirmations to match those needs. Your positive statements will even automatically be adjusted as you make good changes in your life-- those adjustments will keep you on the right track to achieving happiness.
Positive daily affirmations are a powerful way to reprogram your subconscious mind. They can replace negative and destructive thoughts with positive and happy ones. When you are continually repeating uplifting and positive messages to yourself, they begin to soak into your subconscious mind. After a while, your subconscious mind will begin to accept and believe these thoughts. When this happens, your conscious mind will begin to make good decisions that affect your life in a positive manner.
In order for your daily positive affirmations to be effective you must inject true emotions into them. Merely mindlessly repeating a phrase to your-self over and over does you no good if you don't feel it. Try using words of emotion like " happily,joyously,confidently,unstoppable,bold,relaxed,calm,etc. These will help you generate real emotion.
You must be persistent when using positive affirmations. Saying an occasional affirmation to your-self is as effective as doing a few push-ups occasional. You won't see any appreciable results until you make them a daily part of you routine just like brushing your teeth or combing your hair. Try them for at least thirty days in a row with-out missing any days. You should begin to notice a definite shift in your thoughts and behaviors.
There are some different things that you can use on a daily basis to help you use positive affirmations daily without disrupting your daily schedule. Here are some of the different things you can use. Repeat the affirmations when you have a few minutes alone each day. It doesn't matter what time of the day or night it is. All that is important is that you take at least 10 or 15 minutes each day to say the affirmations to yourself. The more you can repeat them the more easily you will start to believe it. Write down the affirmations and then put them on to different things that you use throughout the day. You can put them on your refrigerator door, your computer's desktop, your coffee cup, car's dashboard or anywhere else you can find. This will help you see them and repeat them each time you do something new.
Use pictures whenever possible because this will make it much easier to change your way of thinking to be positive. By repeating the affirmations to yourself and seeing a picture at the same time, your subconscious mind will have a much easier time of believing it is true in your physical world. Now that you know how to use daily affirmations to achieve the complete happiness you want; all that is left is to get started using them. Just remember that it will take time for them to start working, but once they do you will be amazed at how many things in your life you can change so that you have complete happiness in all areas of your life.
First you must decide on a specific goal or outcome you wish to achieve. Do you want to loose weight, stop procrastination or control your temper? Whatever it is that you want to do, you must state it in the positive. You must focus on what you want not on what you don't want. Keep your affirmation in the present tense. Futurist statements focus on what will happen someday. Some days never come. "I will lose weight one day" will keep you looking to the future. A great way to stay focused on the present is to begin your affirmations with "I AM..." Try this,"I am happily achieving my weight loss goals." notice the word happily? That puts some emotion into it which makes the affirmation more powerful.
