List of Positive AffirmationsHow to Easily Create Lists of Positive Affirmations
In addition to giving you a list of positive affirmations that you can use in any area of your life, let's begin by explaining the affirmation process. There is no need to pull your hair out. Using positive affirmations to help you achieve your goals is actually very simple. We recommend that you use ALL of these methods and write your goals in the present tense for maximum impact -- with one exception: If you feel extremely uncomfortable reading your goal statement phrased in present tense and doing so triggers doubt, disbelief and negativity, you would be better off NOT writing your goals in present tense. Instead, write your goal in a way that makes you FEEL good about it and focus on the other 9 methods of impressing your subconscious mind.
For example, suppose you have 39% body fat and you weigh 280 pounds and this is your goal statement: "I am so happy and grateful now that I weigh 172 lbs and my body fat is only 12%." Old ProgrammingIf your mind has a lot of old, negative programming, this kind of goal statement might make a negative voice pop up in your head that says, "Who the heck are you kidding? You're so far from 12% fat its not even funny." This voice followed by a negative image of you being stuck forever at your current weight and that triggers negative emotions and makes you feel bad. Do you see the problem here? A positive affirmation under these circumstances can actually be detrimental. If this happens to you, then simply write your goal as a statement you can believe such as, "My goal: 172 lbs and 12% body fat." On the other hand, you could simply write, "I will weigh" "I want to weigh" "I'm going to weigh" in order to set a direction. Another method is to use PROGRESSIVE PRESENT TENSE. In other words, phrase your affirmation as if you are in the process of making progress towards your goal rather than already being there. Act As IfThe most famous example of this affirmation, from Emile Coue's book, "Suggestion and Autosuggestion" is "Every day in every way I am getting better and better." Although this is not specific, it embodies the principle of progressive present tense. Here are some specific examples in the health and fitness context:
If you are uncomfortable with present tense, try progressive present tense and see how that makes you feel. If it makes you feel positive and optimistic, and does not trigger any negative or disbelieving emotions, you will know it is the right affirmation you. If you start an affirmation with, "I AM" and you want it badly (burning desire) and believe it to the point of experiencing it in your mind as if it has already happened, that is certainly the most powerful affirmation of all. The words "I AM" have great power. But remember, to invoke the power of "I AM", you have to want it, believe it, image it, feel it, intend it and let go as you work and take action to achieve it!
