Building self assurance starts with positive self talks. We often underestimate the power of self affirmation, but it’s a fundamental tool for cultivating confidence, resilience and overall well being. It’s a way of acknowledging and enforcing the positiveness of oneself, abilities and worth. Sometimes all we need is self motivation, the belief that you’re the best version of yourself and that your flaws and mistakes make you a unique person. Self affirmation boosts one’s self confidence and self esteem, it improves our mental health and well being and can also support personal growth and development. Self affirmation could be in various ways, it’s could be in the form of meditation, or affirmation cards with inspiring quotes by the side of your bed and you wake up to say them everyday, it’s could be in form of mirror talk, where you repeat affirmations in front of a mirror, and could also be in virtualization, where you imagine oneself achieving goals and overcoming challenges. This is the form of self affirmation I do so much and I believe would help In boasting one’s confidence. Simple self affirmations like:
I am beautiful
I am amazing
I am capable and competent
I am worthy of love, respect and happiness
I trust myself to overcome this challenge as usual
I am who I really think I am
I can handle whatever comes my way
I am grateful for all the good things in my life
I love and accept myself exactly as I am
I am strong and resilient
I am optimistic about my future
Self affirmations like this can help boast your self esteem and confidence and I think should be part of what you do everyday. Also, remember self affirmation is a personal and individual practice, the key is to find what works for you and make it a consistent part of your daily routine. How often do you say self affirmations?
