Reciting some positive morning affirmations doesn’t just get your day off to a great start:
It’s also the best way to inspire and empower you to be the best possible version of yourself.
As bestselling author (and, might I add, fellow Canadian) Robin Sharma says, “What you focus on grows, what you think about expands, and what you dwell upon determines your destiny.”
By consistently taking the time to recite – or better yet, write down – some personally resonant and positive daily affirmations, you can reshape your mind and build the sort of confident, powerful and positive self-worth that leads to a beautiful life.
Below I’ve rounded up hundreds of positive morning affirmations that focus on those aspects of life where people tend to need a little extra help or motivation.
Choose the ones that most resonate with you, and use them to turn each day into a good day.
And remember: saying them out loud is fine, but morning affirmations work best when you write them down.
