Sometimes we need a little nudge to focus and get shit done. Affirmations are a great way to align with ‘action-taking’ energy and help shifts your mindset to think and, most importantly, feel positive about the tasks at hand. Affirmations encourage self-motivation which is much more effective than relying on an outside source to push you to get things done. Only YOU can genuinely motivate yourself to accomplish your goals and improve your mindset. In this post, discover 25 affirmations for positive productivity to help you achieve your goals and manifest your dreams!

What are Affirmations?

Simply, affirmations are phrases you say out loud or think to yourself. In detail, affirmation defined means the act of affirming. Hence, when you say or think a phrase repeatedly, you are affirming that it is true. These phrases can be positive or negative. Obviously, negative affirmations make you feel bad whereas positive affirmations make you feel amazing. For example, repeating “I am dumb” will make you feel sad whereas repeating “I am smart” will make you feel happy. To make it more specific to this topic, repeating “I am not good at anything and I am a failure” makes you feel sad, stressed, and anxious; however, repeating “I am learning how to be better and because of that, success follows me” will make you feel happy, powerful, and inspired!

Why and How do Affirmations Work?

We are about to get really scientific in this explanation of why and how affirmations work so put your thinking cap on! First and foremost, you must understand the bundle of neurons in your brain that carries important subconscious thoughts to your conscious mind. These neurons are your Reticular Activating System (RAS). This system filters out unnecessary information so that only the essentials make it to your conscious mind. Basically, your RAS delivers subconscious thoughts to your conscious mind. Therefore, the repetition of positive affirmations will train your RAS to filter through positivity as essential information.

Not only does the Reticular Activating System (RAS) filter essential information, but it also seeks proof to validate that information. In other words, when you repeat a phrase, your RAS seeks out supporting evidence to connect to the original thought. For example, if you’re repeating “There are no obstacles that I can not overcome.”, your RAS will recognize proof to validate that statement such as solving a problem rather than putting it off or letting the problem win. Your mind will begin to highlight positive situations while dimming negative ones and because your mind will be so focused on the positive, MORE positivity will come – LIKE ATTRACTS LIKE!
