Affirmations to help you break a bad habit

Have you tried and tried to break a bad habit, and failed over and over again? Have you tried using Affirmations to help break a habit? Positive statements have been proven to work!

What defines a bad habit?

If we were to send out a survey now to ask people what they think the words bad habit mean, most would say that a bad habit is a negative action that people do over and over again, such as smoking, drinking, or eating too much. .

Did you know that habits are incredibly powerful tools for personal growth and success? Good clothes that is!

What habits do you have now and how do they affect your life? Your weight and your health are determined by your eating habits. Your relationships are determined by your social habits. Your success at work is determined by your work habits, etc.!

So how do we change them?

When it comes to breaking free from bad habits, many self-help books and coaches will tell you to become mindful the moment you start thinking about or craving the habit, and to make conscious decisions to just not do it! This may work for some people, but for most of us it is too difficult and doomed to failure. Why? Because it’s human nature to want to do something we’re not supposed to do!

Psychology!

First we have to get the psychology right in our head! We must want to change this habit and we must address why we want to free ourselves from it, that may sound stupid and obvious, but it is true, we must understand and talk to ourselves.

Write down all the benefits you are going to get by getting rid of this habit, we have to tell ourselves that we are not depriving ourselves but improving.

Statements.

When I talk to people about affirmations, I’m often asked “what if I don’t believe the words are true?” Good question, the subconscious mind doesn’t know what is true or not, it hears words and accepts them as such! So the more we say the words, the more the subconscious takes them into account, we “affirm” them as our truth!

Choose your words carefully, if you have difficulty saying them, you should change them, try to keep them short! Here are some ideas to help you create effective and life-changing affirmations:

1. Make the statements short but forceful”,I am now free from this habit of…”

2. Always make your affirmation in the present tense ( I am now, Nope I’m going to)

3. Always express them positively” I’m glad it’s not anymore…”

4. Write them down and read them often, read them out loud.

5. Do them every day, no matter how you feel, stick with it!

6″.I am so thankful that I am now free from this habit.“

Affirmations must be practiced daily for at least thirty days to embed them in your mind, do them morning and night, stick with them, it works! Learn to boost your affirmations, and be free in record time!
