Write Your Affirmations to Manifest What You Want Faster

Affirmations are positive statements that help you meet your goals. They can be powerful motivators to change your mindset, build positive new habits, and get more of what you want in your life. But did you know that writing down your affirmations can turbocharge them, so you get faster results?

The act of writing your affirmations makes them more tangible and brings them out of your head and into the real world. It doesn’t matter if you type them on your computer, tablet, or phone, or use pen and paper. What counts is the act of writing them down. Pinning your written affirmations where you will see them often or having them pop up as a reminder on your phone gives them even greater authority and gives you a regular reminder of what you want more of in your life.

Here are the steps to best write transformative affirmations to get more of what you want faster.

Write your Goal as an Affirmation

Take some quiet time to really focus on getting your affirmation right for you. Make sure that it aligns with your values and your priorities. Make sure your affirmation is an “I statement” and includes a positive, active verb. If you like, you can include your name to make it a formal commitment to yourself.

For example, you might write “I [first name, second name] am easily

·     becoming fitter and healthier

·     enjoying going to the gym every day

·     stopping smoking

·     speaking confidently in public.”

Keep Writing it Down!

Experts say that repetition is key when practicing affirmations. You have to rinse and repeat multiple times a day regularly and consistently to help build new neural pathways in your brain and rewire your mindset. And writing your affirmations out numerous times a day is even more effective.

When you write, you have to focus on what you’re doing; your mind can’t drift as it can when you’re reciting out loud.

Commit to writing your affirmation at least ten times a day for it to be most effective. Many people like to start their day this way, or you may prefer to do it on your lunch break or before bed. You might want to use a special notebook as a physical reminder of what you want to achieve. Keep it on your night table or your desk, so it’s there waiting for you.

Note Down Successes

It can get a little tough to remember to write down your affirmations every day. As extra encouragement, it helps to write down the successes, big and small, that show that your affirmation practice is working. Before you know it, you’ll be well on your way to success!

Feel More Confident by Changing Your Body Language

Not all of us feel confident in social situations. In fact, recent polls show 2 out of 3 people have experienced some kind of social anxiety. Unfortunately, the world is full of social situations, in every aspect of your work and personal life.

While you can’t always change your need to engage with the people around you, you can change how you feel about it. In fact, through some attention to your body language, you can feel more confident the next time you sit down with someone else. Here’s how:

Start at the Handshake

Not too hard, not too soft, but somewhere in the middle will serve you perfectly. Don’t be afraid to practice this beforehand with someone you trust to give you an honest opinion.

Put the Focus on Them

From the moment you shake hands, you should be practicing good eye contact. Meet their eyes at the handshake and keep them there, especially when you’re making a point or asking a question. The rule of thumb? Look them in the eye about 60% of the time. While it feels intimidating at first, you’ll be amazed at how your own confidence levels rise when you do.

Lean into the Conversation

By leaning toward someone when they talk, you convey interest. You’ll also find the added side benefit of hearing them better in crowded social situations, so it’s a win all around.

Are you slouching?

Different polls have shown that anywhere from 50 – 80% of people have bad posture. This is not only unhealthy for your back (and even your digestion!) but gives the impression you’re disinterested, bored, or disengaged. Draw yourself up and stand tall and proud. A confident posture will go a long way toward boosting your confidence and the confidence placed in you by those you converse with.

Keep Your Head Up

Keeping your head down, your face turned away, or hiding behind your hair are all traits of someone who’s trying to hide. It’s time to come out in the open by putting your chin up and being proud of who you are.

Don’t get Handsy

Fidgeting with things or burying your hands in your pockets are both signs of nervousness. Keep your hands in the open, palms up, making slow, natural movements as you speak. This will calm you down and leave you feeling more in control.

Walk Like You Mean It

Come into a room slowly, with big steps. Confidence blooms with a confident walk.

By paying attention to each of these seven things, you’ll find you feel more in control of the situation. You’ll be able to relax and focus on the enjoyment that comes of truly connecting with someone else. In the end, you’ll feel less anxious in social situations in general, leaving you one of the lucky few who never experiences social anxiety at all.

You’ve probably heard about mindfulness. You may even have a regular mindfulness practice that you follow. But did you know you can use mindfulness to help manage your anger? Mindfulness experts have identified several key steps you can take to control and manage your negative emotions.

1.   Observe your body’s signals

When you're angry, your body sends out all sorts of messages from rapid heartbeat to clenched jaw, stomach, and hand muscles. Your breathing may become light and shallow. You’re ready to fight or fight.

2.   Use your breath

Breathe into your body’s anger reactions. Close your eyes, focus on the breath going right down into your belly and out again. Count as many breaths as you need to defuse your anger.

3.   Connect with your body

Stay aware of how your body is feeling. Scan your body to see how the anger reactions are manifesting and subsiding. What does your anger feel like? Don’t judge, just observe and be kind to yourself.

4.   Look at your mind monkeys

When you're angry dozens of little mad monkey thoughts are running around your brain like naughty kids yelling things like “It’s not fair,” “It’s not my fault,” even curse words. Notice your angry self-talk and how it runs in circles. Try to detach from the thoughts if you can.

5.   Step away

Separate yourself from the thoughts, feelings, and bodily reactions of anger. They are reactions, they are not you.

6.   Reach out

Once you have detached from your reactions, you can communicate with the person you’re angry with. Keep the focus on how you feel, make “I” statements, and avoid blaming.

Stay calm and keep your voice low-pitched. Keep your awareness on your reactions in case the anger rises up again.

7.   Mindful thinking

It’s easy for the negative mind monkeys to start chattering away again. Look out for some of the more common thought patterns that feed anger and victimhood. The words ‘never’ and ‘always’ are red flags for anger monkey activity as are blaming statements (it’s your fault, why don’t you listen) and gaslighting.

8.   Acknowledge the emotion

Don’t try to deny or squash down your anger. It’s a legitimate emotion and in some circumstances, can be a powerful tool against injustice and achieving change. But it is an emotion, it’s not you. Anger, like other feeling states, will come and go, and you can choose how you want to deal with it.

Worrying can sometimes seem like an overwhelming part of life. Humans are hardwired to worry; it’s how our ancestors survived. However, if worry is becoming a burden to you in the twenty-first century, then it’s time to explore strategies for removing some of it. Below are four strategies for coping with your worry that science supports.

1.   Meditate

Specifically, mindfulness meditation has been shown to help lessen worry and the effects of it. In mindfulness meditation, you acknowledge when the mind wanders, label and accept what your mind wanders to, and then move back to focusing on your breath. This will allow you to recognize your worry and acknowledge what is causing it, while not dwelling on it.

2.   Accept Uncertainty

Worrying about the unknown is something that can snowball. It is in your best interest to accept the fact that somethings in life will be up in the air. If you cannot accept the unknown, you can learn to reframe it. Instead of wondering if you will ever meet the love of your life, you can see being single as an opportunity to meet new people and have new experiences. The power of uncertainty resides in how you frame it.

3.   Leave Perfectionism

Perfectionism can be a major cause of worry for many individuals. The reverse is also true—worry can also feed perfectionism. Fear of making a mistake, for example, can easily lead to “awfulizing”—when one negative thought leads to another catastrophic one. For example, you may start out worrying that you might make a mistake at your new job because you’ve never completed some of the tasks you are required to do. That can quickly become worrying about how humiliating it would be to get fired for incompetence. By the time you are finished, you are stressing out about how you would pay your bills if you lost your job. In reality, you probably will make mistakes in a new job. But your employer anticipates that. Practice giving yourself a break and relaxing—no one is always perfect. Stressing about it will only make it more likely you will make mistakes.

4.   Give Worry a Name

Externalize your worry by giving it a name. If you identify your fear as “Claire,” you can then think of your worry as something outside of yourself. For example, Claire is worried about the snowstorm that is expected next week. You can tell Claire that you are prepared for the weather and have the situation under control. This will give you the power to tell Claire why you are done with her and then move away.

Finding ways to cope with your worry and lessen the burden it has on your life is a constant work in progress, one that will involve trying new strategies and learning more about yourself.
