It is often said that thoughts translate into words, words into actions, actions into habits, and ultimately, the habits we develop direct our lives. In other words, the thoughts we have in our heads have the power to manifest themselves into reality. This speaks volumes on how important it is to be careful about how we speak to ourselves, for the words we choose have the potential to change our course of lives.
The good news is that there is a secret, almost magical tool that can be used by anyone at all – affirmations. These simple yet powerful sentences enable you to tap into your inner power to transform your life for the better.
What are affirmations?
Affirmations are the perfect tools to direct our flow of thought toward a more positive note. They are short and powerfully positive sentences that can reprogram our thinking pattern in such a way that we start to build self-confidence and believe that we are capable of anything.
A daily dose of powerful positive affirmations can help us fight self-doubt and build our self-esteem. It gives us a sense of empowerment. When we verbally express our desires and goals in a coherent manner, in a sense, we “affirm” that they will not just be dreams or wishful thinking, but goals we will work toward and make a reality. In fact, “affirmation” originates from a Latin word “affirmare”, which means to confirm or to strengthen.
The reason affirmations work so well in aiding us in our self-growth and personal development is because when we think of positive thoughts, our brain releases a huge amount of endorphins and dopamine, also popularly known as ‘feel good’ hormones. They help to break the unhealthy habit of negative self-talk. So, in a way, rewiring our brain into thinking happy, positive thoughts is like physical exercise for the brain to eventually get into a better shape.
Another reason why affirmations are a sure way of improving yourself is the universal Law of Attraction (LoA). Everything in the universe is energy, so when you think positive thoughts, you attract positive energy. But when you think negative thoughts, you attract only negative energy. Whatever you put out to the universe is reflected back to you. In other words, your thoughts have the power to shape your reality. Life really is up to you and what you make of it. So why not make the best of it?
Attract abundance by repeating these 5 affirmations every day
An abundant life is not only one that is full of material belongings, but instead, one that is also filled with fulfilling and meaningful relationships, and a spiritual awareness of one’s purpose in life. A life filled with an abundance of positive energy cultivates only good things the world has to offer. However, it does not imply that your life will be problem-free. Instead, you will be equipped with everything you need – confidence and self-esteem, kindness, wisdom, courage, and understanding – to face any challenge life may throw at you.
As we have said before, you attract people, events, and opportunities with the same energy as you. Just by the power of thought, you can attract health, wealth, wisdom, and happiness, and build a life of abundance. Simply focus on what you already have and be thankful for it, and you will always receive more.
So, here is a list of powerful positive affirmations that will help you attract all the abundance you need and more in life. Repeat them every day wholeheartedly and abundance will follow.
1. I accept myself the way I am but understand that there is always room for improvement
The ability to accept yourself just as you are, yet at the same time understanding that you can always learn and grow every day is a valuable wisdom not many people have. When you accept yourself for who you are, you start embracing all your imperfections too. You understand that you are human and it is okay to have flaws and shortcomings. What matters is that you are aware of them, and you work toward them relentlessly. Such a level of self-awareness will surely attract abundance.
2. I have self-confidence and belief in myself
Trusting in your abilities can work wonders in everything that you do. It is an assurance of success, and consequently, abundance. If you are confident in who you are and what you do, there really is nothing that is impossible. Your thoughts are only as powerful as you allow them to be, so cultivate positive thoughts and self-talk. Learn to be your own biggest motivator, supporter, and cheerleader.
3. I always try to be the best version of myself every single day
Every day, whatever happens to us each moment is an opportunity to be the best version of ourselves. We can either choose to love or fight, to be grateful or complain, to keep fighting or give up. Even in small moments that may seem insignificant, we can always prove to ourselves that we strive for improvement every single day. Even when you are stressed out or in a bad mood, do not act impulsively. Think things through and act wisely. Slowly but surely, abundance will flow to you.
4. All the abundance the universe has to offer is within my reach
The universe has an endless flow of abundance that is within anyone’s reach. The only thing that is blocking it all out is you. Align your attitude and action toward positivity and abundance will follow you everywhere you go, in everything that you do. Know that only you can open the gates to allow it all in, and only you can close that gate. You are in control of your own life.
5. I am thankful for all my blessings every day
Never forget to practice the attitude of gratitude. The more you focus on all the things you already have and appreciate them genuinely, the more blessings you will receive in abundance. Thankfulness is a powerful positive emotion. Practice it, spread it and more blessings will come your way. If you only focus on things you do not have, forget having more. You will never have enough.
