Positive Affirmations

Posted by Dave Lorenzo - Business Coach

Make a list of positive affirmations. Think of all the things you’re good at, and write them down. For instance:

I am a great innovator.
I work well with people.
I am dependable.
I never give up.

You don’t have to be perfect in any of these areas to count it as a strength. Nobody’s perfect. The voice of your inner critic might speak out and negate any of these statements. That’s normal. Simply quiet that voice and continue exploring your winning facets.

We often spend so much time focused on our shortcomings that we forget about our strengths. To move up to the next level of success, we must be aware of our assets and use them to the greatest extent possible. Identifying them to yourself is the first step in using them to achieve your goals, building your personal brand and reputation, and letting the world know what’s so great about you. Once you know and believe that you are a great innovator, you can exercise the skill, become well known for it, and highlight it to others. Doing this on a regular basis attracts opportunity and builds success.
