So what are daily affirmations and why should you care?

Put simply: Daily affirmations are simple, positive statements declaring specific goals in their completed states. It’s a way of tricking your brain into thinking that you’re already as successful as you want to be.

The repetition of these words create neural connections in the brain. When your brain THINKS you’re successful, you start to ACT in accordance with this successful mindset. This boosts your confidence, meaning that you’re more likely to BECOME successful in reality.

They take goal setting to a whole new level and, can really open your mind to what’s possible in a whole new and different way.

Affirmations help you to make the inner changes that support the achievement of your goals .

By creating the right affirmations and repeating your affirmations each day you provide a stronger intensity to your focus and which in time creates iron clad self belief.

Top Affirmation Synonyms

There are many synonyms for affirmations that can help you grasp the concept better, and they help to describe the spectrum that is affirmations more effectively. These include:

Assertion

A statement that you strongly believe is true. a positive statement or declaration, often without support or reason. To assert is to state with force. So if someone makes an assertion, they’re not just testing out a concept — they really mean it.

An assertion is an affirmation synonym that can also be used without words. When your cat urinates in multiple places up and down your property , he’s making an assertion of his dominance (also called “marking”) over his “territory.”

Asseveration:

The act of asserting, or that which is asserted; Is a positive declaration or averment like an affirmation its a statement of intent a declaration of one’s position statement asserted; position advanced.

When you recognise the truth or authority of something this us an assertion. The solemn or emphatic declaration or statement of something.

Avouchment:

a statement asserting the existence or the truth of something. You are vouching for the realness of something.

Avowal

An open statement in which you vouch or confess something that you are convinced of. It could even be something you support or have an intention to do. A statement of intent like this repeated enough would become one’s belief.

Claim

Ones again just like an assertion, one is stating that something is the case without any tangible proof.

When you ask for something that your convinced you have the right to. I could quite easily begin to claim I’m wealthy without evidence.

However in the context of this article if I were to continue to claim I am wealthy, my belief would make it so.

Declaration

A formal statement or the act of making an official statement about something. More often than not the declaration can be in writing.

A written statement is another way of declaring something. That’s why scripting or written affirmations have proven to be so powerful.

Insistence

To demand or command something, whilst refusing to accept the opposite. Insistence is defined as being resolute or firm.

An example of insistence is continually affirming I will not eat junk food. This persistence affirming will eventually effect a change in a person’s behavior.

These affirmation synonyms should give you a wider understanding of affirmations, and how when applied can be life enhancing.

How often should you say your affirmations?

Affirmations can be life changing.

One question a lot of people ask me is: How often should I say my affirmations? Actually there’s no hard and fast rule, but at least three times a day is recommended.

This is often enough to get the messages through to your subconscious mind. Certainly, you can always recite them whenever you have a spare moment and don’t have to concentrate on anything else.

That’s why a mantra makes sense because it’s easy to remember – otherwise, you can always carry notes or have it as a screen saver on your smartphone.

Always Say It In The Present Tense.

Reciting positive, believable affirmations every day not only cements them into your subconscious mind so that they become a part of your psyche, but it also brings another, interesting phenomenon into play your subconscious mind.

Much has been written about this phenomenon and how powerful it can be. But did you know that affirmations is one of the most effective ways of Impressing the subconscious.

This is why you should always recite a positive affirmation, and why you should always keep it in the present tense –

Be sure to avoid using negative language – even in a positive context. Something like: “I’m worthy of a better job than this one.” will be much more effective than “I’m not going to put up with this job for much longer.”

We’ve covered quite a lot in this article. We’ve ve talked about what daily affirmations are, we covered affirmation synonyms to give you a clearer understanding affirmations.

Correctly using Affirmations will make your life a better one. However reading one single blog will certainly not make you adept at applying them.

Michael Sutherland

Michael Sutherland is the founder of TrueCosmic and a devoted student and practitioner of Neville Goddard teachings. His path to this work was not academic — it was forged in crisis. Raised as a devout Jehovah Witness and Baptist, Michael walked away from the church at eighteen and spent the next 25 years in what scripture calls the far country — the prodigal son, wandering. He built a life by the world rules, searching without knowing what he was searching for. When the biggest crisis of his life arrived, he turned back — not to the church, but to scripture itself. Through Neville Goddard teachings he found what the church had never shown him: that the God of scripture is not an external being to be feared and appeased. God is your own awareness. Your own consciousness. Your own imagination. The I AM within. What he discovered was not a set of Neville Goddard principles — these are cosmic laws, written about not only in the Bible but across every ancient spiritual tradition the world over. The same truth, expressed in different language, in every age. The law of consciousness operates whether we are aware of it or not. We are manifesting constantly — the wanted and the unwanted alike. Understanding how this law works allows us to work with it consciously and intentionally, directing it toward the experiences we actually desire rather than the ones our unexamined assumptions are silently producing. In 2017, guided by two mentors — Dr Bruno R Cignacco and Roupa Jetto, a hypnotherapist and Buddhist practitioner — Michael had his first transcendent experience during deep meditation. In 2018 came something he could never have sought or engineered: what is described across traditions as a Kundalini awakening. A sound like rushing wind in both ears. An electrical current rising from the base of the spine, so intense it seemed impossible to survive. Every experience that followed — out of body states, movement along the spinal cord, sensations inside the skull — was documented in scripture, passage by passage, hidden in plain sight. This is not something that can be earned or manufactured. It is grace. According to scripture, it is every soul birthright — every one of us will experience this unfolding, in this lifetime or another. Michael does not share this to define himself above anyone else. He shares it because it confirmed, beyond any doubt, that what Neville Goddard taught is true — and because that confirmation is the foundation on which TrueCosmic was built. TrueCosmic today is home to the most comprehensive Neville Goddard library available online — 292 lectures — alongside an academy of courses, masterclasses and workshops, and 13 specialist coaches serving students across every continent. At its heart is a global community of over 92,000 members, all discovering what happens when you begin to work consciously with the law that was always operating anyway. The invitation is simple: become aware of the law. Understand how it works. And begin, deliberately, to use it.
