 Use the following affirmations to build belief in yourself and your abilities. At first they may sound strange for you to read them aloud, but, as you repeat them each day, you'll begin to believe the best in yourself and you'll begin to feel a desire to live up to the pledges you make.
* I have value as a human being created in the image of God. I am lovable and loved.
* Today, I will hold myself and all other people in high esteem and treat each person I meet with dignity and respect.
* I can cope with whatever life sends my way this day, and in all my tomorrows. I receive this day as a wonderful gift. I will be alert to all the exciting possibilities it brings.
* Today, I will exercise self-control and invest my energies and talents only in those things that deserve my best efforts.
* I refuse to be bound by self-imposed limits, or limits imposed on me by others. I will become all I can be.
* I will act as if the best things I believe about myself are true. I will feed positive thoughts into my mind to replace any negative thoughts that would hold me back.
* I will seek out positive people and read everything written by and about positive people.
* I will seek out positive action to prepare myself to be the best that I can become.
* Today, I will not be defeated by my mistakes and failures, but will learn from them, take them in stride, and move on.
* I will graciously accept constructive feedback offered by people who want to be genuinely helpful and will ignore all petty criticism.
Remember: When you maximize your potential, everyone wins. When you don't, we all lose.
