Words of inspiration

You can use many of these as affirmations. Print them out and stick them where you will see them often (over your mirror, cooker, front door, bedside lamp). One per page in big font will be more memorable. 

I believe in my dreams

If one advances confidently in the direction of their dreams and endeavors to lead a life which they have imagined they will meet with a success unexpected in common hours - Henry David Thoreau

I am becoming the person I want to be

I define my own success

A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. (Albert Einstein)

People with Goals achieve them

The problem is never how to get new, innovative thoughts into your
mind, but how to get old ones out."  - Dee Hock

I accept and am at peace with myself

Life itself when understood and utilised for what it is, is sweet (Tao te Ching)

Words are sacred. They deserve respect. If you get the right ones,
in the right order, you can nudge the world a little.  - Tom Stoppard, British playwright

I follow my higher wisdom and purpose in life

Knowing other people is intelligence, Knowing yourself is wisdom. Overcoming others takes strength, overcoming yourself takes greatness. (Lao Tzu - Tao te Ching)

I accept every aspect of myself

I set myself big goals in order to use more of my potential

Tao does not do but nothing is not done

I focus on and live in the present moment

What I like about experience is that it is such an honest thing. You may take any number of wrong turnings; but keep your eyes open and you will not be allowed to go very far before the warning signs appear. You may have deceived yourself, but experience is not trying to deceive you. The universe rings true wherever you fairly test it. (Lewis CS - Surprised by Joy)

I use the best of my past to shape my future

I can do anything I really want to

I enjoy learning new ways to develop and grow

I recognise that my life has a unique purpose

Any fact facing us is not as important as our attitude toward it,
for that determines our success or failure.  - Norman Vincent Peale

I spend my time wisely

I make full use of my potential by drawing on al my knowledge and experience

I take response-ability for my life - I choose my life and my response to it

Self esteem comes from living consciously, self acceptance, self responsibility, self assertiveness, living purposefully and personal integrity (Nathaniel Branden - Six Pillars of self esteem)

I make time to be just me

I continually refine my weltanschauung (the truth within me)

I am my own best friend

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world, the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself; therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man. (George Bernard Shaw)

I focus on what is good and right in my life

I know there is always a solution and I trust myself to find it

Once I am committed to my goal, the solutions to my problems leap out at me all the time

I regard life's challenges as manageable tasks on my journey towards fulfillment 

I am full of health and well being

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, "who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?" Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. we are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. (Marianne Williamson - Return to Love)

I trust myself

It is easy for me to improve my performance. I simply improve my self talk

I look for messages from life and listen to them

I release the past, forgive myself and live in the present, looking forward to the future

When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I
would not have a single bit of talent left and could say, "I used
everything you gave me."   - Erma Bombeck

I aim not to be perfect but to be perfectly myself (Gill Edwards - Pure Bliss)

I take time to enjoy the good things each day

You can't be afraid of what people will say.  You have to be brave
and take risks.  - Charles M. Shulz

I enjoy the simple joy of everyday life

The Tao that can be expressed is not the Tao of the absolute (Tao te Ching)

I enjoy adventure: I just enlarge my comfort zone through imagery and visualisation

I believe in limitless prosperity

At the centre of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and what you want (Lao Tzu)

What I conceive and believe, I achieve

I see the big picture and purpose in life

The exploration of the highest reaches of human nature and of its ultimate possibilities... has involved for me the continuous destruction of cherished axioms, the perpetual coping with seeming paradoxes, contradictions and vagueness, and the occasional collapse around my ears of long-established, firmly believed in, and seemingly unassailable laws of psychology. (Abraham Maslow - Toward a psychology of being)

I give myself time for me

There never was in the world two opinions alike, no more than two
hairs or two grains; the most universal quality is diversity. - Michel de Montaigne  (1533 - 1592)
 
Now that I exercise 3 times a week and eat at least 40% fruit and veg in my diet, I can wear my favourite clothes, have sexy shape, can walk up mountains, and feel energised, light and satisfied

I have a positive expectancy of achieving my goals and take every setback as purely temporary

I know that all is one

I love myself and am the centre of my own life, then I have something to give others

The Tao is empty and yet useful; somehow it never fills up. So profound! It resembles the source of all things. (Tao te Ching)

I invent my own future

I focus on what really matters

I know I am wonderful and have lots of talents and abilities. The things I do are very valuable in the world, and people willingly pay me to do them with them and for them

When presented with a problem, situation or issue I have loads of ideas on how to understand or resolve it. I don’t give advice and help plan and create the achievement of goals

Money is energy which I invest wisely to create my wonderful life

I am good at everything I do

If it’s going to be, it’s up to me

I walk my own path to the beat of the drum I hear

Saying is one thing, doing another.  - Michel de Montaigne  (1533 - 1592)

I am free and powerful no matter what my circumstances

I am fit and full of energy

Success means a balanced lifestyle
