Building SELF CONFIDENCE, DETERMINATION and SELF WORTH through I AM …statements

 I am" statements are powerful tools in establishing self-confidence, determination, and self-worth. They are affirmations that, when spoken or thought consistently, can change your mindset, attitude, behaviour, and overall perspective on life.

 

Here's a simple process to construct and use these affirmations:

 

Ø  Identify Your Beliefs

Start by making a list of your beliefs about yourself. Include both negatives and positives. The goal here is to understand what you think of yourself.

 

Ø  Negate the Negative Beliefs

For every negative belief, write a positive statement that directly contradicts it. For example, if you believe "I am not good at public speaking," turn it into, "I am improving every day at public speaking."

 

Ø  Make Statements Present and Positive

Write your affirmations in the present tense, as though they are currently true. This draws upon the principles of visualization, which suggests that picturing things as if they're already happening can prepare and motivate you to make them a reality. Ensure your statements are positive. Instead of saying "I am no longer scared of failure," say "I am capable and can handle any challenge that comes my way."

 

Ø  Make Statements Personal and Specific

Your affirmations should be about you and directly link to your own life. Specific statements mean they're directly applicable to your experiences, rather than generic or vague.

 

Ø  Prioritize Emotionally Heavy Statements

Affirmations that evoke strong emotional reactions are usually the most effective. They should make you feel powerful, capable, valuable, etc.

 

Ø  Constant Repetition

For lasting impact, you need to make repeating these positive affirmations a part of your daily routine. You could do this when you wake up in the morning, during your commute, during a break at work, before going to bed, or at any point where it feels right.

 

Ø  Visualize Success

As you say these affirmations, visualize them playing out successfully in your life. This brings a sense of reality to the statements and boosts their effectiveness.

 

Ø  Patience and Consistency

Changes won't happen overnight. Continue practicing your affirmations consistently over time. This allows them to become entrenched in your subconscious mind and, in turn, impact your behaviour.

 

Here are examples of "I am" statements that promote self-confidence, determination, and self-worth:

 

-        I am confident in my abilities and skills.

-        I am deserving of love, success, and happiness.

-        I am determined and nothing will stop me.

-        I am more than enough.

-        I am resilient and can handle life’s challenges with grace.

 

Remember, it's normal to sometimes feel resistance when repeating your "I am" affirmations, especially if you're just starting out or if they contradict long-held negative beliefs about yourself.

 

However, with time and consistency, these affirmations will slowly change your perspectives and improve your sense of self-confidence, determination, and worth.
