Affirmation #9: I find a way every day.

“I’ll never make it through this,” can make me feel so sad. I take a deep breath and say these feel-good words to counteract and prevent that negativity. I made it through every day of my life. Why shouldn’t I make it through one more challenge?  Since I started saying this affirmation, I feel more confident in my ability to navigate life’s challenges. I realize that I will survive, and I choose to tell myself that I will not only survive but prosper.

I find a way every day.

I find a way every day.

I find a way every day.

Affirmation #8: I trust myself to do well

“You can’t get anything right,” can completely undermine my self-confidence. I take a deep breath and say these feel-good words to bring back the energy that I need to make it through the day, or sometimes just make it through the hour. I know that I make mistakes, but I ferret out and find my mistakes. I do well because I make mistakes and I correct them as I go along. These feel-good words give me the confidence to start a project and continue. It makes me realize the value of interim results.  That’s a lot for one affirmation to do, isn’t it?

I trust myself to do well.

I trust myself to do well.

I trust myself to do well.

Affirmation #6: I can start over and do better.

Inoculates and counteracts the negativity of, “I keep messing up,” and similar thoughts. There have been many times when I messed up while I was programming a software project or writing a book. There were even times when I thought it was perfect, but I had to start over because of a software glitch or because I accidentally threw something away.

The funny thing was that when I rewrote the story or program, I almost always wound up with better results. Repeating these feel-good words is much more powerful to me than saying, “I don’t mess up.”  Why should I lie to myself? I do mess up. This affirmation makes me recognize that mistakes are a natural part of life and that I can take advantage of them.

I can start over and do better.

I can start over and do better.

I can start over and do better.

Counteracts and inoculates against, “I can’t do anything right, “because it tells me that I do good things, and it tells me that I think about them.  It makes me realize I don’t have to just think about the things that I do wrong. Somehow, it is so much easier for me to think about all of the things that I do wrong. It’s empowering for me to give myself permission to think about all of the things that I do. I help people, animals, and plants. Why shouldn’t I think about these things? They have value!
