Positive Affirmations & Positive Sayings

"What we say to ourselves has a tremendous impact on our lives."

Most people don't recognize that our self-talk determines how we live our life. Communication expert Bill Lampton says that if you go into an interview thinking self-defeating, negative thoughts, you will start believing the thoughts and will act accordingly, lowering your chances of getting hired.

On the other hand, immersing your mind in positive thoughts will translate into a more radiant outlook and confidence in yourself that just might land you the job. So, start thinking positive thoughts and see how it affects you today.

There are times when I feel insecure. However, it is at these times that I remain focused on things that I am passionate about.

I commit my energy to a purpose much bigger than myself. My passion becomes the focal point and it inspires me. It builds my confidence in knowing that I can be a valuable contribution.

My self-worth depends on how I channel my time, thoughts, and energy. My attitude flourishes when I am engaged in something meaningful that I enjoy.

I am convinced that everyone should have a passion because it is the one thing that can heighten the self-esteem. It makes me feel needed, appreciated and important. My life is full of great purpose!

There is no feeling like being noticed for doing something I really love. It ignites the passion within me. I love the emotions that it brings to my heart.

The insecurity goes away in a flash and I am in a different zone; thinking not of myself, but for the higher good of all. It puts so many insignificant things in perspective and teaches me one of life’s lessons of taking the eye off myself and putting it on something meaningful.

I strive to find the higher ground and I am successful as long as I keep my passion alive. I have the courage to change the spotlight from myself and that is when I get my relief.

Self-Reflection Questions:

1. How can I increase my confidence?
2. How else can I channel my energy?
3. What do I do to increase my self esteem?

I know that I was created for a specific purpose and I am responsible for making it into a reality. This makes me so passionate and confident about my goals and I trust in my ability to get them done.

My passion and purpose are my driving force to follow the path that is ahead of me. I am a trailblazer and no one can stop me unless I choose to stop myself.

There is no time to entertain delay. I have to forge forward in order to complete the goals and assignments that I have chosen.

I know I can do this because I am equipped for success. Plus, I surround myself with like-minded positive influences who give me encouragement to persist. I know there will be challenges, but my passion propels me past them, and I am determined to see it through to the very end.

I am on a mission to make a difference because, after I am gone, the goals that I accomplish will affect generations to come.

I am truly dedicated because I know with great certainty, that I can - and will - make a difference in the lives of those around me. The sky is the limit of what I can do and my aim is to conquer any challenge that may appear, and forge on, stronger than ever.

Self-Reflection Questions:

1. What can I do to make things better?
2. How can I get other people to help?
3. How can I manage my time more?

Because I am in control my fears are quelled.

Today I am in control of my emotions and my life and I need not worry about what tomorrow may bring because I am fully capable of anything thrown my way. This gives me confidence to try new things and experience new places. If I am in a situation that does not feel comfortable to me I can choose to leave because I am in control.

I have often felt afraid when I was uncertain about things around me and in my life. Not knowing what to expect would frighten me and I often missed out on things I would otherwise enjoy.

When I feel prepared for a situation, I do not feel afraid. Although my fears may not go away all together, I feel more secure when I know that I am in control.

I may not be able to control other people in my life, but I am always in control of myself. I am in control of whom I choose to be with, where I choose to go and when I choose to return.

I will no longer miss out on experiences due to uncertainty or fear because I know that I am in control of myself and my immediate environment. I am in control of all my emotions and no one can make me feel uncomfortable without my permission. I am no longer controlled by fear. Knowing that I am in control allows me to experience my life in a confident manner.

If I begin to feel uncertain or afraid today, I will take a deep breath and tell myself that I am in control and I can tame my fears. No one can make me feel fear unless I allow it. And no one else can ease my fears but me because I am in control.

Self-Reflection Questions:

1. What makes me feel the most fearful?
2. What can I do to acknowledge my control in a situation that causes me fear?
3. How am I in control of my life today?
