My personal affirmations for achieving my goals

Affirmations are always most powerful when you create them for yourself. This is because you want them to be statements that you deeply resonate with; and, that apply directly to your own insecurities and sticking points. 

To give you some further ideas on what form your affirmations might take, I have shared below a picture of my affirmations which are written on the first page of my journal. 

Are affirmations right for you and your goals?

Like many other self-development concepts, the effects of affirmations range vastly from person to person. Their impact depends on your own personality and the way you think, and I wouldn’t be too worried if you try to use them and they get you nowhere.

What I can say though, is that affirmations have been used to great effect by me and many better than me to help them face the challenges of the world and pursue their goals with confidence. 

I will end this article by sharing some powerful quotes that I have come across in relation to the power of affirmations for achieving your goals. I hope that this article has been a valuable tool for you to use in your own growth process. 

“Attitude is a choice. Happiness is a choice. Optimism is a choice.”

Roy T. Bennet

“One comes to believe whatever one repeats to oneself sufficiently often, whether the statement is true or false. It comes to be the dominating thought in one’s mind”.

Robert Collier

“As man thinketh in his heart, so is he”

Proverbs 23:7

A crucial point about the power of affirmations

“Affirmation without discipline is the beginning of delusion”

Jim Rohn

Affirmations can be incredibly powerful for influencing your perspective on the world and believing in the power of your own abilities. But; ultimately, success comes from a whole lot of effort and that is a step that cannot be skipped. Use affirmations to enhance your own work ethic! This is where all the growth is found.
