Believing in your own success is essential when trying to achieve personal growth. Our beliefs about ourselves can greatly affect how we perform throughout school, work and our day to day lives. Living a more positive, happy life can be as simple as what we tell ourselves. Let’s get you started with these five positive affirmations you should be telling yourself on the daily:

5 phrases

My dreams are coming true
The more often you say this to yourself, the quicker you are to actually believe it. You’d be surprised to see that you will start acting accordingly. Little by little, day by day, you are taking all the necessary steps needed to achieve your goals. Keep going, because before you know it you will have achieved all your dreams.

I am one of a kind
Comparing oneself to another can lead to a cycle of jealousy and disappointment, which is totally unnecessary and uncalled for. Look, everyone is going through some kind of turmoil at any given moment of their life. They could also be experiencing a lot of happiness and joy, but we never know the complete story. So why compare? No one is better or worse than you. The next time you catch yourself comparing again, remember that there is no one else like you, and that’s your superpower.

I am human
Don’t be too hard on yourself. It’s OK to mess up sometimes. It’s OK to make mistakes and it’s OK to not be OK. We as humans tend to be our own worst critics. Whenever you make a minor mistake, you beat up on yourself, but the truth of the matter is that things don’t always work out or go according to plan. Just remember to learn from your mistakes and try to make them better the next time.

I am worthy
You are deserving of all the positive things that are going to happen in your life. You are a kind, loving person and treat others with great respect, so why accept anything less from someone else? There is absolutely no reason for you to accept less than what you’re comfortable with. Don’t ever settle for a life that isn’t what you want it to be. Start making the changes that need to happen, one day at a time.

I trust myself
You are an intellectual individual. You know yourself better than anyone else does and therefore know what is right for you. Don’t let anyone talk you out of something you don’t really want. Learn to trust your inner voice by reciting this phrase on a daily basis. You will start to feel empowered in no time. The more empowered you become, the more powerful you will feel. So, stick to your gut, it will not lead you astray.
