How Affirmations Strengthen Our Mind Muscle Our minds tends to notice and amplify what we consistently think about. The specific wording in the affirmations in this book are created to evoke emotions. When spoken with intention, these affirmations generate feelings of confidence, commitment, belief in oneself, inner strength and determination. When your emotional state is elevated, you act with more energy, resilience, and power. When the mind is used in this intentional and directed way through repeating the affirmations in this book, your attention is kept on opportunities, behaviours, and actions that move you closer to your goals. Affirmations are also a powerful way to combat our limiting beliefs. Many of these limitations originally came from unconscious beliefs picked up from childhood, culture, or past experiences. Affirmations will help replace our limiting beliefs and disempowering thoughts from “I can’t do this” to empowering thoughts such as: “I am capable and resourceful” . Over time, repetition builds new neural pathways, making positive beliefs the default. Essentially affirmations will create an inner dialogue that counters doubt and fear and in challenging moments act as your “mental amor,” helping you stay committed to your vision. When used daily and repeated often, the affirmations contained in this book will bring forth your goals through the power of manifestation. Manifestation works on the principle that thoughts and emotions influence actions, and actions shape reality. Affirmations keep you mentally, emotionally, and energetically aligned with your desired outcomes, which helps attract the right circumstances and fuels the persistence needed to achieve them.
