What Are Affirmations & What Can You Do With Them?

Affirmations are short, optimistic statements that empower you and encourage you to achieve your goals. These statements rewire your brain to think positively. The brain is a powerful muscle friends. Did you know that your brain’s storage capacity is virtually unlimited and that your brain has enough juice to power a lightbulb? An actual lightbulb!

So, what do you do with affirmations? It’s simple really! You write them down on sticky notes, repeat them out loud, read them daily whether you are feeling low and even when you are feeling on top of the world. Using affirmations can feel awkward at first, but trust us! We swear that the uncomfortable feeling goes away once you start integrating affirmations into your daily routine. The benefits far outweigh any awkwardness you might feel. After all, these mantras can be powerful tools for both you and your business. 

Affirmations are a vital part of framing a successful mindset, setting achievable goals, and building your confidence as an entrepreneur. Affirmations are powerful in that you can customize them to fit whatever you want to accomplish. You can and should have affirmations as strong and unique as you are!

Whatever you want to accomplish in your journey, there are affirmations to validate your efforts and support your mindset.

Why Are Affirmations Important For Female Entrepreneurs?

Here’s the critical thing about affirmations, people tend to forget. For them to work, you have to be consistent. Effective affirmations should resonate with you or your goals, be grounded in reality, and contribute towards something positive. Affirmations with these criteria form sustainable, realistic statements that build your confidence. 

Affirmations won’t work if you are going after a goal that wasn’t made for you. If it goes against what you’re vision of yourself or your business. And it especially wont work if they are just plain unrealistic. Yes, I’d like to win the lottery too, but that’s probably not a realistic affirmation to say aloud every day. The point of an affirmation is to guide you, not control you!

Now lets break down two important areas of our lives and business where affirmations can be especially powerful for female entrepreneurs — because heck, this daily juggle is hard!

Mental Health Benefits

Positive affirmations have proven benefits on your mental health and outlook on life. Affirmations help reduce stress, boost problem-solving skills, and promote efficiency. Now you might be wondering, how can these simple sentences do all that? The magic is reframing your mindset. 

Compelling affirmations are structured to make it sound like you’ve already completed the task. Changing your mindset from “incomplete” to “completed”. This opens your perspective and makes it possible for you to try new things. Better yet, it builds the confidence that wasn’t there before to solve new problems. 

Self Confidence

As we all know, being a business owner can be filled with early mornings, late nights, and a lot of hard work that leaves you stretched thin. Affirmations are a great way to recognize that you are capable and can handle any situation thrown your way. Positive affirmations help boost your self-esteem in your business and other places of your life, too. 

Affirmations are an amazing esteem-building resource, especially for female entrepreneurs. Confidence in yourself translates to confidence in selling your ideas, offerings and overall business. Remember, if you want to reap the benefits of affirmations, it’s important to get yourself in the habit of repeating them! Make it part of your daily schedule to recite or read through your affirmations. Remember, affirmations are there to help and guide you in both good and bad times.

Outside of your business, affirmations are excellent tools to help you improve how you view yourself. We all too often compare ourselves to those around us. Learning to appreciate all the different parts of yourself is what self-love affirmations are all about. Speaking positive affirmations to yourself may feel silly at first, and you may not believe it (yet). But that’s the wonder of affirmations! The more you repeat it, the more truthful it becomes. The more you flip the script and train your brain to work for you, not against you! Positive affirmations grounded in reality improve your confidence and self-esteem better than any comparison.

Remember, showing up for yourself is just as important as showing up for your business!
