The power of positive thinking is no longer pseudo-science. People are using self-talk and affirmations to manifest fundamental changes in their lives. If you want to rid yourself of negative thinking, be happier or motivate yourself, give the morning affirmations below a try.

Your positive morning affirmations could be the difference between achieving your life’s vision and a life of regret.

Frequently Asked Questions About Daily Affirmations

Do Positive Affirmations Really Work?

Scientific studies show that self-talk and affirmations really can affect the brain. But psychologists warn that you can’t affirm anything you like and make it so.

You need to make your affirmations believable. Natalie Dattilo, a clinical psychologist at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, recommends “starting with statements that reflect what you want to believe.”

Another consensus among psychologists is that a regular, particularly daily, habit of affirming yourself gives the best results. Although using affirmations before a stressful situation is also a well know procedure.

First-person or Second-person?

Studies show using the second person “you are strong” rather than the first person “I am strong” is more effective, especially when you are listening to a recording of your affirmations. However, when saying them to yourself, it’s most common to use the first person “I am.”

However, once you have some experience with self-affirmations, try mixing it up, use the second person for a week and see if it makes any difference.

How Long Till Positive Morning Affirmations Work?

Your affirmations won’t make your dreams come true overnight. Morning affirmations can be inspirational from the first time you say them out loud, but more often, it takes a little while. But by repeating your affirmations daily, you should notice your mindset starts to change after a month.

Suppose you continue past habits of negative self-talk or allow yourself to wallow in negativity. In that case, you’ll be fighting against the power of the affirmations, and your positive change may take longer than necessary.

If, after a month, the affirmation hasn’t been constructive or had any positive results, try another one.

How to Start Doing Morning Affirmations

Start every day with your positive morning affirmations, and you’ll immediately see a difference in how you feel.

When you first perform affirmations, it might feel awkward talking out loud to yourself. Positive thoughts (not aloud) can also be motivational and help change your life, but to reprogram your negative thoughts or make lasting positive changes, nothing beats audible positive self-talk.

So whisper at first if you have to, you’ll slowly build up the confidence with your self-esteem, and soon you’ll be affirming positively who you are.

Create an affirmations list and organize it with Obsidian.

Here’s how to get started:

  1. Chose 1-3 affirmations from your list
  2. Find a quiet, comfortable spot
  3. Take a few deep breaths
  4. Out loud, say the first affirmation slowly and confidently ten times
  5. Repeat for the next affirmation.
