With the challenges and obstacles that come in life, sometimes it becomes easy to forget who you are as a person, or maybe you come to a point in your life where you feel like you still are unaware of who you really are. The point is that the qualities that make you amazing can be overlooked on the tough days, leaving you to doubt yourself. You tend to forget the small, yet impactful, qualities that make you who you are – the way you make people laugh, lift them up, and spread some extra love. You do all this for others even though you may be struggling, too. For this alone, you should give yourself credit. It makes you such a beautiful human being. Here are some inspiring affirmations you may need to hear today.
Keep these Affirmations in Mind
Talk to your self like someone you love. Take it as a rule of thumb to always be kind to yourself and to always treat yourself the way you would treat someone you love. It is easy to find yourself in a spiral of being too critical and harsh on yourself, but you should never accept that reality for yourself just like how you would not for a loved one.
Saying how you feel will never ruin a real connection. If you find yourself suppressing parts of yourself or feelings that you feel from a person in fear of it damaging your connection with him or her, you may have to consider the possibility of it not being a genuine connection. After all, the connection is founded on a polished version of yourself that is not entirely genuine, and this in itself could only be a temporary situation that is bound to fall apart down the line.
Everything you are going through is preparing you for what you asked for. You may not understand the good in the situation right now, but it does not mean that it is not there. You never know how close you really are to getting to your goal. Trust in the process, try to make the best out of it, and enjoy the ride, even if it gets bumpy.
Many people pretend to have it all figured out but may have absolutely no idea what is going on in reality. This should remind you to never compare yourself and your journey to anyone else and their journey. Being lost for a certain time period is normal and okay but believe that you will eventually find your way to your calling in life.
You are so afraid of losing them while you are losing yourself like it is no big deal. No one in this world is worth losing yourself for. The right people who are meant to truly remain in your life are the ones who remind you who you are even when you are lost and support you through it all, never the opposite.
You are going to overcome the things that feel impossible to forget, and what is coming for you is far more beautiful than what is gone. Keep these phrases in mind, especially at times when you feel like the walls are closing in on you. Remember that tough times and sadness are never meant to last forever no matter how difficult and intense it could get. Remain hopeful.
Making yourself happy again will be one of your biggest comebacks. Forgive and let go, not for anyone but yourself. Holding grudges will only weigh you down, so instead work on your journey to happiness. This will be far more rewarding for yourself down the line than anything else.
Be here now. Stop measuring days by degree of productivity and start experiencing them by degree of presence. Looking towards the future is always commendable, but not at the cost of being present in the now. Try not to be so in your head that you cannot even enjoy where you are. Remember that in your past, you have always waited to get to where you are in the present, so be present and take everything in.
The Benefits of Affirmations
You should remember that there are people in your life who love you and will support you through everything. You should know that they will always be there for you and never leave you alone. Reach out to them in times when you need that extra love or when you need to hear more encouraging words of affirmation. After all, even research shows that hearing such affirmations can develop our mindset, improve our motivations, and increase our feelings of self-worth.
