Affirmations: What Are They and How Do They Work?

Affirmations and how they work

Affirmations - the Little Manifestation Packets

It’s 9 PM. You’re just having some Me-Time, and suddenly some thoughts start popping up in your mind. You open the Google and start typing - weight loss affirmations, money affirmations, dating affirmations, self-love affirmations, or just daily affirmations. What you see is a bunch of sentences that you just have to repeat. Wait! What will happen just by repeating these tiny sentences? Well, everything!

Yes, let me go a little further and tell you something - you can literally transform your life with affirmations.

Affirmations! Yes, you have heard about these little statements a lot. You might have read about how these positive statements can improve your mindset, change your thinking pattern, add more positivity into your life, boost self-esteem, overcome anxiety, enhance self-love, defy negative thoughts, and even help you create a dream life. The real question is, do they really work? Is it possible to change your life just by repeating a few sentences?

Well, let's find out.

Firstly, what are Affirmations?

Affirmations are basically positive statements that encourage change in your lifestyle. When you repeat these statements regularly, you can transform your reality. Now, it may sound an unrealistic "wishful thinking" but try understanding it from another perspective. As per National Library of Medicine, the positive mental repetitions have the power to reprogram our thinking patterns that help us become the best version of ourselves. These affirmations provide a stronger sense of self, help us understand our core values, get rid of negative thoughts, and motivate us to achieve our dream goals.

 

Situations where Affirmations can work

Honestly, you can use positive affirmations anywhere, anytime, and in any situation, depending on your goals. Here are some situations just for your clarity:

  • Boost your self-confidence
  • Complete your projects on time
  • Make more sales
  • Handle negative emotions, such as anger, frustration, rejection etc.
  • Jumpstart your business
  • Lose weight
  • Land your dream job
  • Overcome bad habits
  • Setting personal goals
  • Leave a great impression in business or school presentations
  • Improve your relationships
  • And much more!

 

Science Behind Affirmations

For those who are thinking affirmations are just magic, well, let me tell you something. There is science behind these little sentences.

Affirmations, when practiced regularly, can create long-term and lasting changes to our thoughts and feelings. Our brain is a powerful machine, and it is very surprising that it gets a little mixed up when it comes to differentiating between imagination and reality. By feeding your brain with positive thoughts repeatedly, it is possible to activate the cells that actually start believing these thoughts, ultimately making your sub-conscious believe that this is already happening. Continuous repetition of affirmations encourage the brain to actually participate and your actions will follow.

Let me give you an example. If you are having an anxious or negative thought for about your next interview, like:

'I am a below-average candidate; why would they hire me? I know I will lose this job so I should leave the interview'.

You can change the whole scenario with a positive affirmation:

"I am definitely going to ace the interview. I know I am the perfect candidate for this position and they will be very impressed with my abilities".

Just by changing this negative thought, you are creating a new reality for yourself. Repeatedly saying this affirmation will help you stay calm and relaxed before interview and you will be able to give your best shot.

 

How to Write Affirmations

First of all, you need to think of all the things you have been struggling with. Whether it's dealing with a bad habit or just the lack of meeting deadlines in your office. It could literally be anything! Once you know the specific area you'd like to focus on, follow these steps to write the affirmations clearly and concisely:

  • Use Present Tense

One of the biggest mistakes people make when it comes to writing affirmation is that they tend to use future tenses (for example, I will lose weight). This is an incorrect way. You must write affirmations as they are happening right at this moment. You need to feel as if it is already becoming a reality for you. Choosing the right feeling is important so that you can manifest your desires fast. If you are looking to lose weight, say - "I am losing weight".

  • Keep them concise

Keep your affirmations short and catchy. The affirmations work great when repeated several times, so if you write these little positive sentences in a way you can remember them easily, they will work great for you. Try to use a casual language that is easy to speak.

  • Make them focused

What do you want to achieve? Do you want to live a healthy, happy life? Are you looking to attract more money? Are you trying to improve your relationship? Make sure you focus on a specific area first so that you don't end up feeling confused. If you want to attract a dream job, you can write something like, "I am getting closer to my dream job" or "I just landed a great job".

  • Avoid negative words

Never use the word "not" in the affirmations. Try to adopt a positive tone. Instead of saying 'I'm not smoking anymore', try to use positive sentences, such as 'I quit smoking', 'My life is full of happiness and joy after quitting smoking'.

  • Make them believable

When you are just starting out with the affirmations, make sure you goals are believable. It is very important because after achieving small, believable goals, your confidence will skyrocket and you will be able to achieve bigger goals as well. For instance, if you want to attract more money, instead of saying 'I am a billionaire', try to say 'I am making a lot of money; I am finally getting paid appropriately'. It will help your sub-conscious mind believe that you are changing the reality for yourself, ultimately creating wonderful financial opportunities for you.

 

How to Use Affirmations

Let me tell you a little secret for these affirmations to work for your goal. The secret is: Emotional Weight. Affirmations can be really game-changing if you infuse emotional weight into them. Make sure you speak each and every sentence by feeling it. Feel as if it is happening right now. Feel the power of your affirmations. For example, if you are worried about your school test this week, you can create an affirmation, "I am very excited for the test and I know I'm going to give my best shot".

Use the 369 method for affirmations.

It means say your affirmations 3 times in the morning, 6 times in afternoon/evening and 9 times before you sleep.
