Exercise #4
Daily Affirmations
Instructions:
1– Write an “I am” Statement:
Begin this exercise by writing an “I am” statement. Select a series of positive characteristics or qualities you wish to adopt. Note: Remember, your list is not supposed to be exclusively an inventory of your current qualities but those you wish to adopt.
2– Specify who wrote you the letter:
The affirmation would be more effective if it is written from the viewpoint of a second party as if he/she were writing a letter to you (preferably someone you respect and look up to). Be sure to write the affirmation in the present tense.
3- Write the affirmation and read it daily: Read your affirmations daily.
Note: As you initially read the affirmation, you may not feel any immediate change. This occurs because your subconscious is programmed to initially reject change. Persist and in a short time you will view and feel the miraculous powers of autosuggestion.
Example:
Write the “I am” statement: I am: Smart, intelligent, focused, likable, ambitious, optimistic, fun to be with, caring, kind, organized...
Specify who wrote you the letter: This note was written to me by: My Mom or (any prominent figure you respect)
Write the affirmation using the “I am list” and read it daily:
(Your Name), I am writing you to share with you my opinion about you and your qualities. (Your Name) I have always respected you so much. You are kind, caring, and full of affection.
You are happy, smile often, and are fun to be with. You are organized, charismatic, and always full of energy. You are ambitious, optimistic, and enthusiastic and everyone who meets you falls in love with your qualities.
You have been an inspiration for many. I can see that people love and enjoy being around you. I believe it is your kind demeanor and caring personality that attracts others to you. One can see how much you enjoy other people. (Your name), you were born to bless the lives of others. You are unique and the world will never see another one like you again.
