How To Believe Positive Affirmations

A lot of people get stuck in a habit of thinking about all the things they don’t have, or what they can’t do. They think about all the reasons why they won’t succeed, instead of thinking about all the reasons why they will.

Negative thoughts are like a bad actor that takes over your mind, making you believe false statements. Negative beliefs stop you from doing certain things and prevent you from achieving your goals.

In this article, I’ll show you how to use positive affirmations to break out of this negative cycle. You’ll also learn some simple rules for starting to achieve your dreams.

I’ve included more details than ever before here! So, read with caution and try these tips out for yourself.

Think about what you are saying

A powerful way to believe positive affirmations is to make them part of your daily routine. When you think about something, you should try to add value to it.

Think about how you can improve the affirmation. Is it important to say this out loud? Can you write a similar statement that makes the same sense?

You can also use pre-existing statements or create your own. No matter which one you pick, just make sure they contain negative thoughts about the same thing – yourself.

A great way to do this is by thinking about things you want. For example, if your affintion is for eating healthy foods, could say “I will eat at least 10 fruits and vegetables per day”.

By adding this into your daily life, you have already started creating a new habit. Creating a new habit is the hardest because people often give up before reaching their goal.

Focus on your thoughts

A while back, I read some interesting information about how we create our own experiences through the way we think.

I’ll let you take a moment to check out that article here but the short version is that it’s all in how you perceive things.

If you believe that life has got to be bad then that’s what life will feel like to you. If you keep thinking “tomorrow I’m going to do my best,” then tomorrow you will!

We are constantly creating our lives via our daily thoughts. So why not make them positive ones?

Think about everything you have done up until this point and how much you have achieved. You have worked hard and invested time into yourself, so why can’t you enjoy the fruits of your labours now?

Why can’t you celebrate your success as someone who knows how to put in effort and earn his/her rewards? Why don’t you appreciate your efforts more?

It may sound crazy but there are actually studies which prove that it works! The experts claim that changing your mindset can influence physical changes in your body. We’re talking improved health and wellness here!

Give it a try and see for yourself. Let me know if it does work for you and give other tips too.

Change your negative beliefs

A positive belief is like having a favorite song that makes you feel good, it sets up a mood or an attitude for yourself. You can use this song to get into a good state of mind or to get out of a bad one!

A positive affirmation must be short and simple, say what you want to believe in and nothing more. Yours could be “I will always take great care of myself,” or “I will never worry about money again.”

It should make you feel happy, solid, and confident so try saying it out loud and see how it feels. If it does, then add the word YOU to the end. For example, my new affirmtion would be “I am enough, I understand me, and I will never doubt my worth as a person.”

Try repeating this statement out loud at least ten times a day. Make sure you wake up and before going to sleep, and every time you talk to someone-verbally, physically, and emotionally.

Gradually, you will find yourself feeling happier and healthier with these new beliefs. Keep practicing them and eventually you will reach your goal.

Practice meditation

Meditating is a great way to develop your self-confidence, belief in yourself and spirituality. There are many types of meditations for different people with different levels and styles.

Some people focus on their breath while doing breathing exercises or yoga. Others may listen to music or recite prayers. No matter what type of meditation you choose, just make sure it’s something that you can easily do every day and stick to consistently.

Practice daily minutes of meditation and eventually it will become second nature. Also, try practicing mediation at night before bed so it’s easier to incorporate into your sleep schedule.

After you have mastered basic meditation, you can advance to more complicated ones.

Use positive images

A motivational technique that can work wonders is using positive imagery or “visualization”. This involves creating pictures in your mind of what you want to happen.

You use this picture as your cue for performing the action every time you practice the skill. For example, if you want to run a marathon, then before you get into bed at night, you will pick a scene where someone else has run a marathon.

They might show very clearly how their muscles are shaking with excitement while they run. Or maybe there’s a music track that seems to enhance the speed of the runner.

By using these tools, running becomes more exciting because you have designed it to be. You can also add some motivational words like, ‘I’ll do my best!’ or ‘Running is amazing!’

Using visualization effectively takes no longer than five minutes to start benefiting from it. And it can make a big difference.

It was developing his own internal image of success that helped Tony become a successful business owner. He would think about all the things he wanted out of life and create an inner movie of himself achieving them.

This way, he became more confident in his ability to achieve his goals and now he does not need any external reminders.

Tony now teaches other people how to use visualization for personal development. It is one of the most powerful techniques in the field of psychology.

Use positive language

A lot of people get stuck in a habit of thinking about all the things they don’t have or why their life isn’t going as well as it could be.

Instead, start adding into your mind thoughts that are about what you do have and how much fun you’re having right now.

Think about everything you’ve got — not what you want, but what you have. You’re healthy, you were given two legs and two arms, and you can speak English.

You’re blessed with this beautiful body that keeps getting healthier every day. You were born at the appropriate time in an appropriate place, and you’re living at the appropriate time in an appropriate place.

Practice gratitude – acknowledge everything you have. Make it a part of your daily routine.

And once you’ve done that, add some more to your list. Take a good look around you and think about all the possibilities for your future.

Your potential is unlimited. What kind of person you are depends on who you believe you are. This includes believing yourself to be enough – no matter if anyone else does or doesn’t agree.

This article will help you begin changing your internal dialogue and inspiring you to believe in yourself more.”

Be optimistic

Optimism is a quality that comes more naturally to some people than others.

People who are born with an optimism gene tend to believe that life should be fun, so they strive to make every situation as enjoyable as possible.

While this may work for them, it doesn’t always translate into other people feeling the same way.

Other people might not agree that everything in life is a totally fun experience, and you can’t force happiness onto them or else things will get out of control.

So how do we develop our own inner optimist?

We can start by practicing being happy all the time. It’s not easy to be happier when you’re struggling with depression or anxiety, but if you really try, you’ll succeed!

Also, choose to focus on what you have, not what you don’t. Your past includes times when you didn’t have much, but now you do, so why waste your energy thinking about what you lacked? Use your present strength to enjoy it and grow from there.

And lastly, recognize that you’re entitled to feel unhappy sometimes. We’re human beings, not robot slaves requiring constant smiles. Sometimes we need sad days to restore our emotions and motivate us to do good things.

Look on the bright side

Thinking about all of the things you’re not doing can be quite depressing, but instead of focusing on what you don’t have, try thinking about everything you do have.

You are living your life, you are alive, you are breathing, you are conscious. You are here for this moment and you are here for these moments after that.

So why not make each one count? Why not use this time to develop yourself, to grow, to achieve your goals?

This could mean developing your career or profession, personal growth through self-help books and practices, improving your fitness by going to the gym twice a week, learning a new skill – anything that makes you feel good about yourself and gives you confidence in your abilities.

All of these things will help you believe in yourself more and give you some sense of control over your own destiny.
