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.
The events that we experience in our lives are drastically affected by our attitudes and thoughts. If you are constantly linking about negative things, then more negative experiences will come into your life. Many people are easily caught up in a negative trend because they do not know that they can change their experience. Using daily affirmations in a positive manner elicits positive changes in our lives.
But, surely, the point is that someone who uses this affirmation on a daily basis will find some relevance in it? They are likely to be someone who follows a western religious doctrine and takes comfort from the Bible. You would be unlikely to find someone of an eastern faith using this particular form of words as a source of strength.I recently visited Nepal and had the privilege of seeing many Buddhist followers repeatedly chanting the mantra "Om Ma Ni Pad Me Hum" as they walked trance-like around the Boudhanath in Kathmandu.
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.
Positive affirmations are not a magic bullet for a successful and happy life. But they can help influence your thought process and have a meaningful impact on your behavior.What are your thoughts on positive daily affirmations? Are you trying to achieve complete happiness in your life like everyone is these days, but are not succeeding? Then you need to understand how you can use daily affirmations to achieve the happiness in your life that you are aiming for.
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.
Another one-word tip for positive daily affirmations is emotions. Pour your emotions into your affirmations so that they become more than just a statement. It is hard to really focus on something that is nothing more than just words. In order to get the most out of your affirmations, you should visualize what your statement represents. Pour as much emotion as you can into them, so that it is easier to know what you should be feeling when you achieve your goals. This will make your statements become something real and almost tangible as opposed to nothing more than empty words. Your positive daily affirmations should then become almost a part of you.
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.
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.
