Creating Your Own Affirmations

Now it’s time to create a few of your own affirmations. This is where you get to think about your own unique needs and desires so that you can craft affirmations specific to your dreams and goals.

It’s important to remember to make sure that your affirmations are positive, empowering, and aligned with your values and goals.

Here are some tips on how to create your own affirmations:

1. Start with a positive statement: Affirmations should be positive and uplifting and they should focus on what you want to accomplish rather than what you want to avoid.
2. Focus on the feeling: Affirmations should create a positive feeling or emotion for you. Focus on how you want to feel, rather than just what you want to achieve.
3. Use present tense: Write your affirmations in the present tense, as if what you want has already happened. This will help you create a sense of confidence and expectation.
4. Be specific: Make sure your affirmations are specific and clear. Avoid vague or general statements that don’t give you clear direction.
5. Use “I” statements: Write your affirmations in the first person, using “I” statements.
6. Keep it short and sweet: Affirmations should be short and to the point. Aim for a few words or a short sentence that is easy to remember and repeat.
7. Make it personal: Make sure your affirmations are personal and relevant to your life and goals. Use language and imagery that resonates with you.
8. Repeat and reflect: Repeat your affirmations regularly and reflect on their meaning and significance. Use them as a reminder of your goals and aspirations.
9. Be patient and consistent: Remember that affirmations are a tool to help you achieve your goals, but they are not a magic solution. Be patient and consistent and you will start to see results over time.

Affirmation Examples

• Instead of “I want to be happy,” try “I am happy and fulfilled in my life.”
• Instead of “I don’t want to be anxious,” try “I am calm and confident in all situations.”
• Instead of “I wish I was more successful,” try “I am successful and achieving my goals.”
• Instead of “I hope I can do this,” try “I am capable and competent in all that I do.”

Remember, the key to creating effective affirmations is to make them personal, positive, and present tense.

Letting Go and Embracing the Unknown

Take some time to think about what you need to let go of and what you need to embrace so that you can move forward and create the life you want.

Here are a few vision board prompts to help you:

1. What are the things that are holding you back from achieving your goals? Do you have old behavior patterns or habits that are not serving you?
