Positive Assertions To Make You A Better Person!

“Your beliefs become your thoughts, Your thoughts become your words, Your words become your actions, Your actions become your habits, Your habits become your values, Your values become your destiny.” ― Mahatma Gandhi
I so love this quote as it speaks to the heart and power of affirmations and truer words were never spoken. Gandhi was correct, as our every thought does have the power to influence our course of action and entire lifestyle. If you overthink like many of us do, your thoughts can hinder your personal development, and keep you from becoming the best version of yourself.
You probably think that this is just some wishful, unrealistic thinking. I felt so, too, before trying affirmations myself. And YESSSS, affirmations do work! On a personal note, I love affirmations because they are amazingly useful tools that I use to pour my soul into and share with the people I have been blessed to occupy space with. Interestingly, when you walk into my home office, it is not surprising to see a wall of sticky notes full of affirmations, motivational quotes, scriptures, etc.
You can use affirmations in almost any scenario where you’d like to see a positive change. For instance, you could want to improve your self-esteem and self-confidence levels, overcome a bad habit, control negative feelings and thoughts, overcome self-sabotaging, and more. When you use and repeat affirmations regularly, preferably daily, you start believing in them and make positive changes.
In a way, daily affirmations reprogram your thinking patterns and exercise your mind. Therefore, the key to make an affirmation work is to keep reciting it, especially as soon as you start encountering the negative thought or experience you want to overcome. When self-doubt allows those mind monsters to creep in, and you find yourself questioning and second-guessing not only your choices but who you are, here are 30 affirmations that I have come across and use in my daily life as a strong black woman that constantly reminds and challenges me of my accountability, self-worth, as well as fosters my continual growth as a woman. And YES, this is for ALL WOMEN!! Not only should you use these on yourself but to affirm others as well.
HDC Tip: Before you start your affirmations, be clear with yourself about what you’re working on changing and what exactly you want out of the affirmations.
