Use These 70 Positive Affirmations to Transform Your Mindset

Positive affirmations are those simple statements that can give you the perfect boost of confidence right when you need it. It’s always important to remind yourself of your own greatness and just how much you can achieve when you put your mind to it.

Sometimes we forget our own power. Positive affirmations like the ones I share below are here to help you remember!

When you’re having a bad day or when you’re a little too critical of yourself, use these positive self affirmations to set your internal voice right and go from critic to cheerleader. You deserve that type of energy, that positivity!

If you want more affirmations like these, I have a whole bunch on the blog. Enjoy my affirmations for being the main character in your life, releasing negative emotions and more.

Are affirmations even beneficial?

While there is mostly anecdotal evidence for the benefits of affirmations, you can still find some research papers that explore and prove their benefits.

This 2023 Turkish study suggested that positive self-affirmations helped to reduce anxiety and possible discomfort of surgery patients.

And, a much earlier study out of Carnegie Mellon University found self affirmations improved the problem solving performance of stressed out, underperforming participants. They actually performed on par with their non-stressed out peers.

So, affirmations can certainly help with a boost of confidence.
