Using Daily Affirmations

By Stein Relou


Did you know that you can positively change your life by using daily affirmations? Many people know that they would like to see positive changes in their life, but do not know what to do in order to bring about those changes. Affirmations are one of the simplest and most powerful ways to bring about change.
[Daily Affirmations]


To truly understand how positive affirmations can make a difference in your life, you must first understand the subconscious mind. The truth is, you're not trying to convince your conscious mind of anything at all. What you're really trying to do is reprogram your subconscious mind.Sometimes it's a little difficult to appreciate the true power of the subconscious mind. To put it simply, this is the part of your mind that processes your thoughts when you're not even aware of it. Have you ever struggled to solve a problem or situation, only to have a spark of inspiration when you least expected it? This is actually your subconscious mind at work. It is the part of your mind that continues to function long after your conscious mind has moved on to other things.

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.

Imagine a small child that is constantly teased or verbally abused. Her schoolmates are continually making fun of her and telling her she's ugly and stupid. Or worse yet, it could even be her own parents verbally abusing her. She hears these taunts for so long, that she eventually becomes to believe them and these messages stay with her even when she becomes an adult. It's these negative thoughts that can cause her to wind up in a dead-end job or marry a deadbeat husband.

Two things are noteworthy. Firstly, these phrases are short and have a context of relevance to the participant. Secondly, they are repeated in such a way and with such regularity that their incantation becomes an almost mindless (and I mean that in the most positive way!) act. It's not so much the content of the words that matters so much as their emotional relevance and their sound.Find some time to repeat some positive statements that have meaning to you each day and see how your mood changes.Make it relevant,Make it short,Repeat it regularly for a set amount of time each day,Make it automatic.

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.

The late, great Jim Rohn said "Affirmations are great, as long as you affirm the truth." But,exactly what is the truth? The truth for you is what-ever you decide it to be. It is a fact that we become that which we think about most. This is where daily positive affirmations can really help us to shape our reality to our liking.For positive affirmations to be effective they must be used regularly. This is why daily repetition of a desired goal is so important. We are creatures of habit. It is through repetition of certain actions or behaviors that our habits are formed and it is by daily repetition that new actions or behaviors can be formed.
