So many people I admire swear by affirmations. I personally don't know if they work or not, but I'd like to add them to my morning routine.

My problem is that everything I google about it is a eHow, Wikihow, or Yahoo! Answers article about how to make affirmations. Even searching the topic on this site returns mostly discussions about whether they work or not.

{ One of the few good links I've found: http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-wise-open-mind/201108/5-steps-make-affirmations-work-you }

  • Does anyone do affirmations? How did you make your first ones and how have they changed at different stages in your life?

What this thread is not:

There are plenty of threads on this board arguing whether or not affirmations work, so that discussion has been had. I'm committed to adding these to my morning routine to experiment and see if they work for me; it's just some dumb thing I want to do for a minute before my shower. What I'm looking for is how to start.

Thanks kittens.
