Defining yourself is a critical part of living a complete and positive life. YOU get to decide what words and principles are used to describe you and define your life. How you speak about yourself is a foundational part of how you define yourself.
The affirmations below are intended to give you a positive foundation for your self-definition. Describe yourself – aloud – as who you WANT to be, who you CURRENTLY are – there are more than enough messages about what you are not broadcast over social media, television, and radio.
The foundation of modern advertising is that the message makes us think about what we are NOT, and sells us on the idea that the product or service being advertised is the answer to our deficiencies. Multiply that negative message – that we LACK something important – by the hundreds of thousands of impressions we are exposed to throughout our lives, and it’s even MORE important that we counter those negative messages on a daily basis with an affirmation practice.
Read the affirmation statements below and take note of which ones resonate most strongly with you. Also note which ones challenge you – which ones bring up resistance in your heart, mind, body, and spirit. Choose one affirmation that feels easy, and then another one that’s not quite so easy.
Start using BOTH affirmations consistently for the next 30 to 60 days, and you may find that the affirmation that challenged you, in the beginning, becomes easier and easier to say, believe, and live into. When that happens, you’re well on your way to countering the negative messages you’ll also hear. The affirmation said in YOUR voice makes more of an impact.
Choose how you want to define yourself – YOU have the power!
