How To Use Affirmations For Success

By Tom Clancey


Affirmations are phrases used to help us think more positively. They are usually formulated in the present tense and should always be positive. When used in the correct manner they can be very effective in helping us achieve any goal in life. They work by breaking down inner resistance and forcing a more positive mindset for achieving a goal.

By repeating affirmations continually throughout the day you will slowly break down the negative resistance you might have that is stopping you from reaching your objectives. This resistance is often formed by beliefs and events from your past. Once this is broken down you will be able to really change your thought patterns with affirmations.

Affirmations can be used for a variety of issues including health, love, weight loss, self confidence and prosperity. In all of these areas they can successfully replace the negative beliefs with more positive ones and you could see a big change in your life.

It is best to make the affirmations personal. There are many examples out there, but you should try to create your own if possible. By all means use the examples as a guide, but affirmations work best when they are personal and tailored to an individual. This way you can really target the areas you want to work on.

If you are new to affirmations you should probably start off with just a few. Try to repeat them throughout the day, particularly first thing in the morning and last thing at night before you go to bed. You can write them down and put them up around the house as a constant reminder.

It is important to take the actual steps to achieve your goal instead of relying purely on affirmations to make something happen as if by magic. Affirmations can be a big support in the process of getting to your final objective, but they must be realistic. If you don't really believe in them they will not be effective. You can avoid this by breaking down your ultimate objective into smaller, more realistic tasks.

There are a number of different ways to try to make your affirmations more effective. One method is to repeat them in front of a mirror. The theory behind this is that you can say them with more conviction if you are looking at yourself in the mirror while repeating them. They may sink in better than they would otherwise.

Positive affirmations can be an effective tool in helping you reach a goal, but they must be used correctly. If you follow this advice you might find that you can change your life in many areas and reprogram your thinking to help you get to where you want in life.
