Our Favorite Affirmations
Affirmations are short, generally positive, statements or phrases that can help challenge negative or challenging thoughts. Affirmations work by leading to long-term changes in the way we think and feel, and so many people find them helpful.
While there may be many affirmations you can look up on the internet for several topics, writing your own affirmation for yourself, generally or for a specific challenge, can be powerful on its own.

I’m hard on myself so reminding myself somehow, however I can that I’m not going to change overnight and that things are okay and that even though my family is all messed up and I’m lonely and tired and also messed up it just seems important to remind myself so I can relax a bit. I’m almost always tense and stressing about something.

i don’t like these quotes, they have a element as if you have a chain on you and the only thing you can do is wait for the next night.
I like quotes that cracks those barriers, that give you discernment that in the mean time you can prep, plan, reproof, speculate and begin to attack it…
You cannot change your destination overnight, but you can change your direction overnight
- Jim rhon
The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.
- William Arthur
“If You Fail to Plan, You Are Planning to Fail” — Benjamin Franklin.
Jim was backed affirmations, only if they have action behind them, affirmations with out execution is the beginning of delusion.
Brian Tracey’s book called eat that frog, he narrows down the importance of time management, to get the harder things done that is of importance than the others, like his principles of eating a live frog, it’s not appealing to eat a live frog, the more you look at it the more likely you’re going to do it, he said to eat the frog as quick as possible and get it out of your way, just like your tasks and priorities, to do the hard ones first and get it over with. Or you’ll procrastinate and never get it done.
Procrastination is the thief of time, collar him.
Procrastination makes easy things hard, hard things harder.

You don’t need it all figured out. The more you think you do, the more you’ll procrastinate and fear moving forward. Have courage and start now, even if you start small.
~Thibaut
Action is the antidote to fear and anxiety.
Don’t put off what you can tomorrow if you can do it now.
Tomorrow may never come, this is true, we might get a year added, but we won’t get what we want out of that year. We can also get in that year done in a day, if we just do it. Some people work a whole year and get a average salary, while others can make the same amount of money in 1/10th the time, Jim calls this value. You dont get paid more than what you do, so do more, and you will be paid more. Do a career not a job. Have relationships no just coworkers. It’s not easy, but we can see millions of people have done it, so why can’t we?
Drop the excuse and the problem can be resolved.
Similar to confucius who says when the student is ready the master appears, when the student is truly ready the master disappears. That is understandable, since once you are taught by the master, when he leaves you have what is teaches and thence become the master, the ability to teach can be passed on.
In order to lead we must follow.
I've been strong in my hard times, I can be stronger and stronger again
@Aileen1114117
It's also OK to be weak in between.
Yo, that relateble and very right!
@Helgafy
It depends on what you mean by "weak" though.
If you mean weak as in can't do as many things as you used to before, that's right.
But if you mean weak as in generally weak, I'm pretty sure no one is weak in general because you will never what someone is going through or fighting through.
@SoulfullyAButterfly I can do anything I put my mind to! 💪❤️

Friend.
"Ask for what you want. Believe that you deserve it. And then allow Life to give it to you."
Well - I simply hate when people say "you deserve that". People say it when good things happen to them and when bad things happen. I really don't believe in the saying.
But - we have a Father in heaven - Jesus Christ. He says; "Ask and it shall be given to you." He also calls Himself "the Life" (as you wrote above). He will always answer our prayer and give us what we need.

I don't think it's about believing or not believing. It's what You make of it, and that's what you did. People come here with many diverse faiths and I'm hoping, like you did, each will incorporate it into something that works for them. Thanks for posting. Hope you have a great day. 😊
