An affirmation is a word or sentence that you say to yourself over and over. Eventually you start to believe the thing you are telling yourself.
More often than not, that belief turns into a reality, after all you become what you believe about yourself.
You probably already have an affirmation of sorts, but the question is… How’s it working for ya? (Thanks Dr Phil).
Do you tell yourself any of the following?
- I am fat
- I am lazy
- I’m too old
- I can’t do that
- I don’t deserve it
- I’m not good enough
- It’s too hard

Affirmation TIPS.
- Write your affirmation down and put it somewhere you will see often. Wallet, handbag, car, office, bathroom mirror
- Set an affirmation alarm / reminder on your phone or computer
- Change your passwords to your affirmation, that way you will be reminded every time you have to log in
- Ensure that your affirmation lifts you up and makes you FEEL empowered. If you get a feeling of “uggghhh, you big fat liar”, when saying your affirmation, then its the wrong one for you. Keep trying until you find something that feels good
- Design a simple image with your affirmation and use it as your screen saver
- Check in with it after a while to see if you have out grown in and need a new one
- Wear a piece of jewellery or even tattoo (if your game) as a constant reminder
