Positive Affirmations: Top 6 Ways To Implement Them into Your Life
Thomas Turner
You have probably heard of positive affirmations. You have probably wondered if they work or are just a placebo for the psyche. Well, rest assured that these do work for anyone. Here we will explain precisely what affirmations are and then we will explore the top six ways to put them into overdrive!
To implement positive affirmations into your life you first need to come up with a few affirmations. They would begin with "I am", "I will", "I can", or "I do". For instance, "I can be a better person", "I am smart" and so on. The trick is to do this on a regular basis. You should repeat your affirmations repeatedly everyday. This will help your subconscious start to believe these statements. This is how the positive affirmations are going to ultimately change your life.
Now that you're ready to start changing your life here are 6 ways to implement affirmations into your life:
1. Put Them In Writing
Write them on cards and read them to yourself several times a day. Take a few minutes out of your schedule, find a quiet place, relax and read the statements to yourself over and over and over. This helps the subconscious to begin to accept the statements as facts and start to apply them.
2. Look at Yourself
As you say them, look into a mirror and stare yourself in the eye directly. This is the same concept as eye contact in a sales environment. By making eye contact, the statements gain credibility to the subconscious mind.
3. Put Them Everywhere
Write the affirmations down on sticky notes and put them in places where you will notice them during your day. Doing this serves as a reminder of your commitment to yourself and reinforces the resolve to make the change desired.
4. Be Repetitive
The more you say or see your affirmations the faster you will see results. So write them down once a day. 25 to 50 times will do just fine.
5. Hear Them
Tell yourself your affirmations in a stern, and forceful voice. Be serious. This is your life you are trying to make better. Plus, hearing your own voice say them makes them that more believable.
6. Change It Up
Change things up a little by singing them or chanting them. This adds a whole new dimension to the affirmation. Musical stimulation has been shown in scientific studies to have profound effects on people at the subconscious level, so take advantage of it. You don't have to sing well, just sing.
You have the power to change anything about yourself that you think needs changing. All you need to do is program the subconscious mind to believe it and take it as fact. Your brain is like a computer. Computers need software to run. Sometimes you need to reprogram the software to achieve the desired effect.
The mind is powerful. Positive affirmations change your subconscious that controls your actions, and changes your life.
