Affirmations
- are suggestions and thoughts that you give to yourself and can be either positive or negative.
As you give yourself these suggestions, you are feeding them into your subconscious mind, which is what ultimately helps to determine your mental attitude.
In my previous articles on Human Life in 2 environments explained how our thought and subconscious influence our reality.
If you feed positive thoughts and suggestions into your subconscious mind,
this will ultimately build a positive or optimistic mental attitude, and when you constantly feed your subconscious with good, and happy ideas, your mind begins to accept these suggestions as reality
because your subconscious is unable to differentiate between your imagination and your reality.
When you consistently inject positive ideas into your subconscious, it will start to trust them as being the reality, and it starts to work producing similar thought patterns.
When your thoughts become positive, you start to become more optimistic about your life and the world around you.
Your thoughts, after all, construct you.
By thinking positively, you can empower yourself and build a healthy mindset and a healthy frame of mind that is always thinking of growth, development, and new ideas.
A positive mindset will give you the strength and courage to believe in yourself and follow your dreams.
Additionally, positive attracts positive opportunities.
When you create a positive thought in your mind, it moves out and starts drawing towards you helpful and constructive opportunities that can help you fulfill your goals.
This is how positive affirmations work, and why using them daily will gradually turn you into a vibrantly positive individual.
On the other hand, if you are constantly feeding negativity into your mind, you should only expect to have a negative mental attitude.
Lisa Legault, a psychologist at Clarkson University, is an unwavering supporter of using positive affirmations.
She believes that affirmations can help to significantly boost your self-esteem, resulting in improved performance in different aspects of life.
Affirmations help to build a positive and feel-good frame of mind. When you have an optimistic mindset, you tend to think positively a majority of the time, and your positive mindset can easily be used to battle negative thoughts that might try to infiltrate your mind.
This helps to build self-belief, which in turn shapes your self-confidence instilling the ‘I can' mindset. When you start taking action, you eventually take charge of your goals and become successful in life.
However, the effectiveness of affirmations to achieve success in every pillar of your life largely depends on some prerequisites.
