5 Things I Wish I'd Known About The Power of Affirmations

affirmations">Things I wish I'd known before starting positive affirmations

Positive affirmations are an incredibly useful tool, but there are a few things you should know (that I wish I had known) before getting started.

1. The power of positive affirmations lies in their repetition.

In order for positive affirmations to be effective, you need to repeat them frequently. The more you repeat them, the more likely you are to believe them. When I first started I often didn't repeat them as much as I should have and I didn't see as much results as I do now.

It's also important to choose affirmations that resonate with you.

The affirmations that are most effective are the ones that resonate with you on a personal level. If you're not sure what affirmations would work best for you, spend some time brainstorming or look for inspiration from other people's affirmations.

2. Repeating positive affirmations out loud can help to increase your self-confidence.

When I first started with positive affirmations I only repeated them in my head. But I soon realized that speaking them out loud had a much more powerful effect.

It is easier to believe something when you hear it said out loud with conviction. When you say your affirmations out loud with feeling, it is like giving yourself a pep talk and it can really help to increase your self-confidence.

3. That they can help to increase your self-esteem and confidence

Positive affirmations can help improve confidence. Using confidence affirmations such as:

"I am capable and competent"

"I am worthy of success"

"I can achieve anything I set my mind to"

can help greatly to increase your confidence levels. Repeating these statements to yourself on a daily basis can help train your brain to believe them, which can lead to increased levels of confidence.

4. That they can help to improve your mood and reduce stress

Positive affirmations can help to reduce stress in your life. This can be done through stress affirmations or simply from the act of being kind and gentle with yourself. Positive affirmations can help you to feel better about yourself and your life, which can lead to less stress.

5. That positive affirmations can help you manifest your desires

I wish I had known that positive affirmations can be incredibly powerful and effective in helping people to manifest their desires and goals. When I first started using them I was not focused on things that I wanted to manifest in my life, but I soon realized that they can be used to manifest anything that you desire.

Positive affirmations can help you to attract anything that you desire into your life, whether it is a new job, a new relationship, or anything else that you can imagine. The key is to focus on what you want and to believe that you can have it.

If you are not sure how to start using positive affirmations, there are many resources available online and in bookstores. There are also many affirmations already created that you can use, or you can create your own.

The most important thing to remember when using positive affirmations is to be consistent. It is also important to believe in what you are saying and to say it out loud. The more you say your affirmation, the more likely it is to become true.
