Daily Affirmations - How To Use Them To Change Your Life

By Casie D. Leavens


Positive daily affirmations can help you to reprogram your mind from the negative self talk that you have had for years. For this to work effectively, you need to repeat positive statements of a desirable outcome like a mantra on a daily basis a few times per day.Positive daily affirmations help to redirect your values, formulate goals for success or simply help you to boost your self confidence. They can be used to improve areas such as wealth, success, health, relationships or self esteem.

Affirmations are powerful so you must remember to use your words carefully. Choose words that are in complete alignment with you and what you want, choose only positive phrases and affirm them in the here and now by using words such as "I am" and "I have".When trying to manifest your desires through affirmations and any other techniques consistency is the key ( just as it is with many other things in life.) Whatever we give our attention to is what we are drawing into our life. You need to consistently place your attention on that which you desire. Visualisation combined with positive affirmations is the key to getting what you want. See yourself as already having it, let your thoughts and feelings flow to enjoying the object or the experience.

Pay attention to how you feel. If you are feeling good you are moving into the position of allowing what you want to come into your life, if you are feeling disappointment or any other negative feeling you are thinking about the absence of what you want in your life. This will stop it from coming to you. It is your right to live the life that you dream about and learning to manifest your desires will help you achieve it. Remember to follow the basic rules of asking, believing, receiving and affirming daily.

Have you ever had a strange feeling in your gut that you just couldn't put into words? Or an uneasy feeling that something just is not right? This is your subconscious mind at work picking up on clues that your conscious mind didn't even notice. Many people have been able to save their lives by listening to their subconscious mind.

There are also ways for you to subtly plant your daily affirmations such that you will automatically read to yourself while going through your everyday routine. You can easily stick affirmation cards which you have pre-written yourself on places like the bathroom mirror, the car's dashboard, your desk in the office, the refrigerator's door, the computer desktop, the phone's screensaver and other places that you will look at everyday.When writing or practicing daily affirmations, use words that are positive such as bright, capable, creative, strong, intelligent, beautiful, smart, giving, quick, peaceful, loving, successful and enjoyable. Combine these words into phrases that you can relate and understand easily. Examples of daily affirmations are such as, 'Have fun, be a WINNER' or 'Take the LEAD, be in CONTROL'.

You might want to extend these phrases into affirmation statements that you can repeat to yourself at ease and sounds believable. To make this daily affirmation process grow, write out thirty different statements for each day of the month. Affirmations are based on the reasoning that we create our own conditions and experienced through our feelings and thoughts.One example of a daily affirmation statement that I personally used is, "Let me live each moment of this day attentively, consciously and intentionally, with an open mind and an open heart".

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.
