Construction of Successful Positive Daily Affirmations

By Harold C. Rehm


For thousands of years, a small percentage of the world population has been using the power of daily affirmations to help them with their health and achieve the happiness that they desire. It is simply interesting that just by repeating certain key phrases to yourself everyday can have a positive impact on your attitude. What exactly are daily affirmations and how can you use daily affirmations as you strive towards abundance and personal growth?

Daily affirmations are statements said in the present tense that you reiterate daily. When used with intent, your daily affirmations can go beyond positive thinking and create lasting changes in your mind to help you to change your life.Simple daily affirmations like, "I am successful in my work" can be a great handy tool that we can use to reprogram our subconscious mind. Most successful people tend to devote at least 15 minutes a day, to practice his or her daily affirmations in a quiet and unobtrusive place. These are your private moments where you tell your subconscious mind what you want to achieve in your life.

In order for positive daily affirmations to be successful, you must use a time reference in them. This can be as specific as you want, but it sets a specific goal to be achieved at a set time. When deciding that you want your statement to be true right now, tell yourself that NOW is the time that it is. In the example, the time designation is "am". That shows that the statement is true right now, not some ambiguous time in the future, or even some time in the past. It isn't going to help you to know that you were an influence yesterday, it is critical to know that you right now, you are an influence. If you do decide that you want to use a time in the future, make it deadline, be as specific as possible. Compare these two statements: "I will be rich" and "Before I am 25 years old, I will have thousands of dollars in my bank account". Both of those statements say the same thing. However, by changing the time frame in the second statement from "will" to "before I am 25", you have given yourself a goal and a length of time to achieve that goal rather than just a time in the future. Time definitions are important in your positive daily affirmations.

When you create positive affirmations in your thoughts and statements, your mind and feelings are improved. You will also develop self-confidence. Always aim for the present and not only for the future. When you have positive affirmations, you will steer your life into a good direction. People who have positive thoughts regularly experience insightful and intense results in their life.Every day, think positive thoughts about the area of your life that you want to improve. You can focus on your career, family, love, health or status in life. Think of good affirmations in these areas and you will see them improving in the future.

You can write positive thoughts and say them aloud. This will remind you about them and will keep you in a good mood always. Make sure that you concentrate on the present. Instead of saying you will have a fulfilling life, tell yourself you are already living a fulfilling life. You can write down these thoughts in post-its and place them on the refrigerator, mirror or in your room where you could see them. You can also be more creative by recording yourself as you utter these positive thoughts so that you will remember them and feel good as you listen to them. A favorite daily affirmation of mine comes from Charles Haanel's book The Master Key System which reads as follows: I am whole, perfect, strong, powerful, loving, harmonious and happy.I believe it is really important to have daily affirmations written down. On preferably on 3 X 5" index cards. To help keep them neat looking. Place them somewhere, where it reminds you to read them out loud. With lots of enthusiasm!

You can have written down your goals on 3 X 5" cards, and look at them daily. By reading them out loud, everyday, with lots of enthusiasm, it helps to strongly place them into the subconscious mind. When something is in the subconscious mind, it's believed that the subconscious mind helps us with what we continually affirm out loud, with lots of excitement.Also by saying daily affirmations, over, and over, and over again, it helps to build confidence in us. I can't stress enough, the importance of daily affirmations, over the long run. For as we thinketh, we become.

I always receive more than I desire.Keep using gratitude in your life and know you will always receive more than necessary to live your best life now! The more readily you are able to see all the good things coming to you, and most importantly to be grateful for it, the more likely good things will continue to come your way. Abundance is prevalent everywhere in each of our lives, the challenge comes in seeing it for what it truly is.I have all the money I currently need.This one is especially critical for me, and may be for you to. Focus on all the things you can afford with the money you have in your bank account. It doesn't matter if you have $100.00 or $100,000.00 in the account. What matters is realizing what you can afford with those dollars and how significant it is. In today's world $100.00 will buy you conveniences only available to the ultra wealthy only a few decades ago.

I bring abundance to those around me.Realize as you begin to attract abundance in your life you are also bringing abundance in to the lives of those around you. The more joy and abundance you experience the more you will also be able to share with those around you. Become a beacon of joy and share it with everyone you encounter.I speak often of abundance and joy.Reinforce the power of abundant thinking by articulating your feelings about joy and abundance as often as possible. The more you talk openly about gratitude and abundance the more you reinforce the affirmation and positive thinking. Your results will increase exponentially as you begin to share the wealth with those around you.

One of the key benefits of positive daily affirmations is that you will draw like-minded people to you. An interesting exercise to do sometime is watch two different people interact. If one has positive thoughts in their mind, while the other has negative thoughts, the negative thinking person will tend to walk away from the positive thinker. This is a classic case of the old adage "misery loves company". The truth of the matter is that if a person is unhappy, generally they don't want to be around people who are happy. However, other people who use positive daily affirmations will group together since they all share a positive outlook on things. This entire group of people will draw off of the positive energy of each other, in turn strengthening their own good feelings. Before long, you have an entire group of people using positive daily affirmations that are walking around in a virtual euphoria.

Remember, it is believed that the more positive, enthusiastic the emotions are when the affirmations are repeated out loud, the quicker it goes to the subconscious mind.I believe the subconscious mind, is like a large computer, (but way better) that is always working, always thinking. Why don't you take more advantage of it, and use daily affirmations, if you don't already do so? What do you want? What weaknesses do you want to be made stronger? Write them down as daily affirmations, and persevere, and never give up! Remember, to write your affirmations in the affirmations as if you already possessed, what you want. For whatever traits you already possess, I believe they can be made even better through the daily affirmations done the right way.The subconscious mind is more open to suggestions right after a person wakes up, and right before they go to sleep. Those are actually the best times to say the daily affirmations, because of that.
