Do you know “affirmation”? In other words, it is a “profession to yourself”.
For example, if you tell yourself everyday that you are recovering from illness, your mind (subconscious) will change and you will actually get well.

It is just words, but more than words! Either good or bad, affirmation has great effects on our subconscious. Let’s take a look at 9 ways to become what you want to be, using affirmation in appropriate way.

9 ways to be what you want to be by affirmation 

1. Think about what you want to be, what you want to accomplish

The beginning, or a motivation, is important. It is “what do you make the profession for?

If you want to know more about affirmation, you already have something in your mind that you want to change. The first big step is to ascertain what it is.

2. Think about what is preventing you from it, what you are lacking

When you have ascertained what you want to be or what you want to accomplish, look at your present situation. What is preventing you from making your dream comes true? What do you lack to accomplish your goal?

You know the destination, but you have no ways to go, no tools to use, and big obstacle is on your way. Try to look at yourself objectively.

3. Make sentences for affirmation

If you understood the obstacles and what you lack, make sentences of profession to tell you that. It will become a great power by putting them into words.

Just thinking “if it was not here”, “this is what is preventing me from success” is not enough to move forward.

 4. Key of affirmation ①Use assertive, positive expressions

I have mentioned that words have strong effect, and it is the most important thing in affirmation. Your profession should use assertive and positive expressions and words to show your strong will.
Our subconscious is easily affected that it cannot have images of negative words. For example, if you say “I do NOT want to do XXXX…”, your mind won’t recognize a word “NOT”. As a result your subconscious only focuses on the word “XXXX”, which you most want to avoid.

5. Key of affirmation ②Write with words of result

You have a vision of what you want to be. If you say it out loud, you would say “I will be XX”, but this is not good.
“To be XX” means, for subconscious, you are not what you want to be at the moment, and you will lose a potential to move forward.

So when saying your goal out loud, say as though you already accomplished what you want to be.

6. Key of affirmation ③Write in the first-person

This is also very important. You have quarreled with your loving boyfriend, for instance. What you want the most is to make up with him, but you don’t want apologize. If he apologizes, you can accept it. So, you would make an affirmation “he will apologize me from the bottom of his heart”.

Unfortunately, this is not effective, because this affirmation doesn’t include your action. You need to write in the first-person (=you), like following.
“I can be up-front and face with him, and have a talk.” In this way, your subconscious starts to react and can lead you to the ideal action.

7. Make a profession of affirmation in the morning and the night

After making your affirmation words, tell it to yourself over and over. In the morning after you wake up and in the night before you go to bed, keep making a profession until you feel comfortable with it. Especially, an affirmation before you go to bed is effective.

Our brain is organized while we are sleeping, and necessary and unnecessary memories are sorted. So if you tell your brain the strong words of affirmation before it starts organizing, they will become important for your brain and subconscious.

 8. Write down in mobile phone or memos

Some of you might forget to keep your affirmation, so write and keep your phrases on idle display of mobile phone or in your note you see everyday.

Try to see them and put into your mind. To say and hear from ears, and see with eyes have different effects. The best thing is to do both!

9. Leave it on the power of universe

Once you have started affirmation, leave it on the power of universe. You should not be confused about when to accomplish your goal. You are doing what you should now, so just believe the power of something great and affirmation, and spend your days relaxed.

One day you will realize your change and surprise with the power of affirmation. It is good not to worry too much.

If you can change yourself with just a power of words, how easy it is! Everything depends on you, so please try affirmation from today! I hope you will have a brighter future.
