Why and how do affirmations work?
Why is it that some people are sooo into positive affirmations and others think it’s a load of balony?

I think that it’s all in how you see the whole positive affirmation thing!
Affirmations work for people who want the positive affirmation to have an effect on their lives. These great sayings simply don’t work if you don’t know how to use them, quite logical really!

Affirmations, when worded correctly — and when emotionally charged – are able to tap into the unlimited creative power of your subconscious mind, and manifest your desires.

Affirmations are not all created equal. Some are, of course, better than others. There are *power affirmations* that have been proven again and again to work – and I’ll reveal some of them in a moment.

By definition, an affirmation is a statement repeated time and again either verbally or mentally — or written down. The words of the affirmation statement – in themselves -when spoken, thought of, or written *without* a pictorial (visualized) or emotional connection — make a very weak affirmation.

When you examine the structure of these power affirmations, you too, can learn how to create your own powerful affirmations for your specific purposes.

Have a little think about the following:

“I am what I choose to be.”
“All my needs are met instantaneously.”
“I love and accept myself exactly as I am.”
“_____________ comes to me easily and effortlessly.”
(Fill in the blank with what you desire.)
“I am now perfectly healthy in body, mind and spirit.”
“I now create my wonderful, ideal life.”

What do the above power affirmations have in common?

a) They’re short and specific.
Short affirmations are easy to say, and have a far greater impact at the subconscious level than those which are long and wordy. Keeping them specific and to the point adds power as the idea is uncluttered by outside elements.

b) They express a positive statement.
Affirmations need to be stated in the most positive terms possible. Avoid negative statements. Affirm what you do want, rather than what you don’t want. For example: “I am no longer sick.” This is a negative statement. Instead, affirm: “I am now perfectly healthy in body, mind and spirit.” This statement is much more powerful as it is positive and reinforces your desired goal and doesn’t confuse your subconscious mind with the mention of the undesirable condition.

c) They’re stated in the present tense.
An affirmation is more effective when stated in the present tense. For example; “I now have a wonderful job.” Say it in the now! Avoid affirming something in the future tense, e.g. “I am going to have a wonderful job” or the results will always be waiting to happen.

So, what makes positive affirmations powerful?

* Belief
You don’t necessarily have to believe your affirmation initially, in order for it to work. Belief will grow with your forthcoming successes. What you do need is the ability to *feel* what it would be like when the desire you’re affirming is fulfilled, or your need met. Every time that you have a need — and that need is met — a certain “feeling” is produced in you. You need to evoke that same feeling when you state your affirmation. In other words, you need to feel with every fiber of your being that what you desire has already happened. Without this feeling, your affirmation is powerless.

* Emotions
Get involved, be passionate, and use your emotions. Think carefully about the meaning of the words as you repeat them rather than just writing, typing or saying them.

* Repetition
The importance of repetition cannot be overemphasized. It imprints the affirmation into your subconscious mind.

* Persistence
Practicing affirmations with persistence achieves results much sooner than practicing them periodically. Successive sessions will have a compounding effect.

* Impress Yourself
Personalize your affirmations. They must ‘resonate’ with you — feel right for you. The stronger your connection with the affirmation, the deeper the impression it makes on your mind, and the sooner you will experience positive results.

Repeat These Self Esteem Affirmations to Yourself Throughout the Day

I have confidence in myself
I am valuable
I am a talented person
I am intelligent
I never give up
I am free to be myself
I respect myself
I can do anything
I accept myself as I am
I am good and I know it

TIP: Although the practice of affirmations is easy, some people find it challenging to repeat the affirmations continuously while maintaining the highly charged emotional state necessary in
making affirmations work. DID YOU KNOW… that you can use your
computer to make the affirmation process effortless – and that you can automate those challenging aspects (such as maintaining highly charged emotions), and thereby, manifest your desires more quickly?

Have a look at this great affirmation software to find out how.

So there you have it – the simple formula for creating positive affirmations that work. Based on the above, you can easily create your own affirmations to manifest any desire or need you have in life.

My Prosperity Affirmations.

Are you into affirmations? I think affirmations are a great way to reprogram your inner thoughts and feelings!

Today I want to talk about affirmations and prosperity!

Do you see a link between the two? Here’s how I see it……….
Affirmations work by delivering new messages to your subconscious mind. Most often, this involves replacing old, limiting messages with new, empowering messages.

Do you have a hard time focusing on prosperity? Do you find yourself struggling with negative thought habits that only seem to attract more lack and difficulty into your life? Affirmations are one simple tool you can use to turn it around.

Now, did you know that the way you word your affirmations will usually determine how effective they are? this is true!

If I asked you to recite this affirmation: “I am a millionaire,” how effective do you think it would be? Would you turn into an overnight millionaire? Would money start falling out of the sky to land in your lap? Probably not. Why? Simply because you know the statement isn’t true. If you try to feed your subconscious mind a belief that you are a millionaire, it creates a conflict with your current set of beliefs.

Your subconscious mind does not like conflict, and it doesn’t like change – so nothing in your life changes either!

If you really want affirmations to be helpful for you, you MUST word them in a way that your subconscious mind won’t resist. In other words, make them believable.

Compare the above affirmation to one like this: “I am becoming more prosperous every day, my prosperity is increasing!”

That one feels better, doesn’t it? Your mind doesn’t try to resist it because you can actually imagine it happening (even if it hasn’t begun to happen yet).

An often overlooked power-boost for affirmations is to word them in a way that places more responsibility on you. For example, instead of affirming, “I am becoming more prosperous every day,” you could say, “I am open to the best opportunities to make money quickly and easily.” The wording of such an affirmation makes you feel more in control of your circumstances.

Rather than waiting anxiously for money to fall out of the sky, you send a message to your subconscious mind that you can control how much money you have by being alert to great opportunities.

Affirmations can vary in the length of time required to firmly “take root” in your mind. For the most part, it depends on the intensity of your opposing beliefs and the level of effort you put forth in turning those beliefs around. If the focus you have on all the things you don’t have, is very strong, you’ll probably have to expend a fair amount of energy and effort to train your mind to focus on prosperity.

Mind you, it is time and effort well spent because the more you focus on positive thoughts and prosperous beliefs, the more you’ll find yourself attracting good things into your life.

Here’s a good and Free affirmations ebook download to help get you started on the road to prosperity! Enjoy!

Affirmations That Attract Prosperity

My Top Ten Prosperity Quotes and Affirmations

My regular readers will know Im big on prospertity for all and positive affirmations to help in the journey to reaching success!

Today Im going to give you my top ten prospertity quotes and affirmations.

We need to focus our minds on prosperity if we’re going to attain it. Positive thinking can help us recognize all that is good in our lives and if something is lacking, thinking positively can help us take action towards attracting what we want.

Here are 10 of the top prosperity quotes and positive affirmations you can work into your day to make your life more abundant, prosperous, and joyful.

1. “I am discovering the purpose for my life.”

The only joyful life is the purpose-driven life. The aimless life is not worth living. When you feel that you have a reason for being, you will feel fulfilled and your life will be beneficial to others.

* This road to discovery is often long and winding, and it may take you on adventures that you often can’t predict.

2. “I know my mission.”

What is your mission? Decide for yourself, then write it down as concisely as you can. Visualize yourself accomplishing your mission on a daily basis. Don’t expect your mission to be easy, instead, expect yourself to be strong in completing it.

* Just like a mission statement for a business, allow your mission to grow and change as you evolve with each passing year.

3. “My higher self is guiding me in the right direction.”

Accept that you’re guided if you really want to accomplish what you’re called to do. Trust your instincts to guide you along the right path to your prosperity.

* If you come across any passages in books that seem to leap out at you, memorize them or write them down to read over again; these are likely messages you were meant to read.

4. “I sit at the feet of the great masters.”

Learn from those who have gone before you, those who have already struggled, those who have already overcome, those who have already achieved, or those who already have fulfilled similar desires to yours. You don’t have to figure out everything for yourself.

* Everyday is a chance to learn something new. Rather than reinventing the wheel, find a mentor who can help guide you to something better in life.

5. “I am managing my time well.” 


If you need to create a written schedule in a journal or input your tasks into your computer’s calendar, then do so.

* Spend your time doing things that will make you money, bring you personal fulfillment, or otherwise make you the success you want to be. Don’t be sidetracked by frivolous things.

6. “My goals are written down.”

Write down your goals, short term and long term. Read them over on a daily basis. You have to internalize your goals so they flow through your life and inform your every action.

* Goals are important on your path to success. Each goal builds upon the last.

7. “I cut out the excesses from my life.”

Keep your life simple. Stop flying off after the next adventure, the next romance, or the next “big thing.” Forget about partying, instead, stick with your schedule and stay intent upon your goals and your mission.

* Enjoy simple pleasures and find the greatest pleasure in meeting your goals.

8. “I know how to use my time creatively.”

There has to be time for recreation and for the things you love to do. Re-create your mind and spirit to keep up your strength.

* A life of prosperity includes making time for creativity.

9. “I measure my progress.”

You have to stay objective. How are you really doing with your progress? Success largely rests on your imagination, but it’s not only about wishful thinking.

* Tracking your progress is important to see how far you’ve come toward reaching your goals.

10. “I get things done.”

Those who hesitate are lost. If you can do it today, do it. Don’t force it, but don’t procrastinate, either.

* To have prosperity is to take action. Whether in work or in love, take action to make your life better.

Whenever you need some inspiration or reminders of how positive thinking can help you, revisit these quotes and say them aloud!

Positive affirmations are very helpful when you allow them to be!
They aren’t going to work for you unless you have an open mind and are willing to change your mindset for the better. Mt top ten prosperity quotes and affirmations are daily motivators for me and can be for you too!
