Why Saying Daily Positive Affirmations May Not Be Working For You

Apart from incorrectly constructing positive affirmations there is another reason why positive affirmations don't work or don't seem as if they're working.

Let's look at the latter case first. Business Optimization Strategist, Stephen Pierce said:

"Just because it ain't working doesn't mean it doesn't work."

Let me give you an example. Imagine going to a restaurant with your family and enjoying a sumptuous meal. In fact, you enjoyed the meal so much you get the recipe and plan to recreate the recipe for your family. You and your family are so excited your mouths water in anticipation.

But when you finish preparing the dish you're actually very disappointed and, though they try to hide it, the disappointment shows on your family's faces as well. Someone your version of this dish doesn't quite look like what you had at the restaurant and it doesn't taste nearly as good. Yet you followed the recipe step-by-step. What could have gone wrong?

Well, several things. It could be that the restaurant chef uses a secret ingredient that isn't revealed in the recipe. It could be that the chef has their own unique way of combining and cooking the ingredients. Whatever, it is they do something, and it may be quite subtle, that has a profound effect on the outcome of this particular recipe.

So, if you are confident that your affirmations have been properly constructed from a neural-linguistic point of view, there may be something else that you're omitting in your practice of daily positive affirmations.

For instance, when you say your affirmations, do you visualize what that affirmation really means? For instance, take the affirmation:

"I am financially independent."

What does that mean to you? If you were financially independent what kind of lifestyle would you be enjoying? Who would you be sharing your time with? Where would you be living? How would you spend your leisure time? What type of home would you be living in?

Well, do you ask yourself those types of questions and imagine what it would be like to be financially independent? Or, do you simply say the words to yourself with little or no emotion?

Here's the thing. Unless you put your heart and soul into your affirmations they will not work. You have to get emotionally involved.

Your affirmations represent something that you haven't yet acquired. Think of a series of vertical shelves. What you currently have in your life is within easy reach for you. What you're seeking is on a higher shelf. So you're either going to have to stretch yourself or stand on something which will elevate you in order to reach what you're aiming for.

Now let's look at the issue that your positive affirmations just don't seem to be working. All too often we give up on something just before we reach the point of breakthrough. And yet, some our darkest moments obscure some of our most glorious opportunities and eventual achievements - if we just have the courage to hold on until dawn break.

Nelson Mandela had a dream to see the end of apartheid in South Africa but, when he was imprisoned, for a long time he thought his dream was over. But then one day he experienced a shift in his perception and he thought to himself that maybe this was how things appeared as his dream was unfolding.

With this new insight he began seeing things differently and one day his voice of intuition said he should start writing letters about his experiences and the rest, as they say, is history.

Practicing daily positive affirmations does work and can work for you. But only if you believe they work and only if you out the effort in to make them work.

Learn How to Enhance Your Self-Esteem and Super-charge Your Self-Confidence

The extent of your self-esteem and self-confidence will either make or break you and Oprah Winfrey asked an interesting question regarding self-esteem.

"Are we all born with innate self-esteem that erodes over time or is self-esteem something we were supposed to pick up along the way?"

I believe that we are born with innate self-esteem but our environment affects whether we build our self-esteem or tear it down.

The trouble is that you are not even aware of the many of the factors and incidents that influence, shape and build or destroy your self-esteem and self-confidence as many occur during childhood. And a lot of damage can occur during this period and this damage can persist through to adulthood when you may become more analytical of your behaviour and more critical of your results.

You may find that despite your best efforts your results do not meet your expectations. And, superficially, there can be several practical reasons for this but when you delve deep enough you'll generally find that, somewhere along the line there are issues regarding your self-esteem and self-confidence.

When you address these issues you naturally become more and when you become more you're able to do more because you have greater belief in your abilities and you therefore achieve more. Increasing your self-esteem and self-confidence puts you in a more expansive state.

So while a degree of self-esteem may be encoded into your being from birth, as with everything, if you don't work to enhance your self-esteem it will erode over time. The most successful individuals will all tell you that they have worked on improving their self-esteem and when they did their life and their results improved dramatically.

So here are three simple ways to enhance your self-esteem and super-charge your self-confidence:

1. Change Your Physiology
Or more simply put – change your physical state. Some people practice being as small as possible. You get the feeling sometimes that if they could make themselves invisible they would. It's like when you watch a performance by a dance company. You often find that your eyes are riveted on a particular dancer because they have that something extra, that special presence that has nothing whatsoever to do with their dance technique.

So stand taller, hold your head up high, expand your shoulders, breath more fully and walk with a spring in your stride. You'll immediately start to feel better about yourself because by changing your physical state you'll positively alter your biochemical state as well.

2. Change Your Self-Talk
Business Optimization Expert, Stephen Pierce said that the foundation to all success is a combination of your self-talk, self-esteem and self-image. It's one thing for a person to speak to you in a derogatory manner. It's quite another when that person is you as Rob Bremer said:

"If you had a friend who talked to you like you sometimes talk to yourself, would you continue to hang around with that person?"

Now you can't get away from you and so to improve your self-esteem, it's imperative that you improve your self-talk. You know you feel better when someone speaks to you in a positive and encouraging manner and so do yourself a favour and speak to yourself in this manner whether or not things are going your way.

Stephen Pierce said in the early days of his own personal transformation he used to shout out "Cancel" whenever he found himself thinking a negative thought. You can adopt your own method of interrupting the pattern of your negative thinking.

3. Stare Fear in the Face
You can either live a life of fear where you're afraid to try anything new and afraid to go after your goals and dreams because you fear that you will not be successful. Or you can stare fear in the face and do the thing you think you cannot.

"You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face... You must do the thing you think you cannot do."
Eleanor Roosevelt

You can start out by doing small things and gradually work your way up to doing things which are more challenging. Or you can do something of greater magnitude. The thing is that each time you overcome your fear, when you face fear on another occasion it becomes easier to overcome because, within your memory bank you'll have lots of experiences to refer to.

And each time you do this you'll be giving your self-esteem a boost.

Goal Achievement Lessons from Olympian Michael Phelps

Video: Michael Phelps - 100m Butterfly Final - Beijing Olympics 2008

Michael Phelps is regarded as the greatest Olympian in history winning 8 Olympic Gold medals in the Beijing Olympics eclipsing the record set by Mark Spitz at the Munich Olympics of seven gold medals. So he's a great model to learn about goal achievement.

The goals you wish to achieve may or may not be as monumental as those set by Phelps, still, whatever your goals following these five tips will help to assure your success.

1. Write down your goals
You probably heard this countless times but do you do this? Do you write your goals down and review them on a regular basis. All great goal achievers write their goals down. They write them down in detail and they write down a synopsis of their goals as well - perhaps on a 3x5 index card or a special card created specifically for this purpose that they can regularly review.

For the Beijing Olympics, Michael Phelps wrote down his goals and then he worked backwards to set targets within those goals that he knew would give him the best chance of achieving his desired outcome. So he wrote down his target times as well as split times. Writing down his goals is a success habit that Michael Phelps cultivated from an early age. As a child he would write down his goals and stick them on the refrigerator and you're probably very familiar with just how often children like to visit the refrigerator.

Michael Phelps has typed his 2012 goals on his laptop. You can do this too and there are even special programs and or online communities that will help facilitate this. However, something almost magical happens when you physically write down your goals. Some individuals make it a habit of writing down their goals every day.

2. Be selective with who you share your goals
There are people who will support you and there will be people who, if they had their way, would dash your hopes and dreams to pieces. And it may simply be a matter of their insecurities or them not wanting to see you experience disappointment should your goal not materialize as you plan.

So share your goals with those who you know will support you and those who you know can help you to achieve your goals.

With respect to his goals for 2012 Michael Phelps said:

"There is only one person who can help me get there and that is my coach, Bob. Bob and I work together to achieve my goals and that is why him and I are the only two people who know what my goals are."

3. Visualise your goals
Visualisation is critical to the goal achievement process. You not only have to be able to visualise yourself completing your goal, you have to see beyond that point and multiple stages in between. For instance, when NASA wanted to send a man to the moon they realised that the successful completion of this particular goal was not simply getting a man a man to the moon but returning him safely back to Earth. And so, this is what they had to prepare for. If you don't project beyond the goal you're trying to achieve you may find that you come up short even if you achieve your main goal.

It has been shown that when athletes visualise themselves performing that their muscle fibres react as those they were physically performing. The beauty about visualisation is that it's something you can do almost anytime and anywhere, although first thing in the morning and last thing at night are two excellent times to visualise your goals. Phelps' visualises his races daily with such intensity he can see the bubbles in his wake.

4. Develop your mental strength
The bigger the goal you set yourself the more resistance you're going to experience. And so if you don't develop mental fortitude you will not last the course. Preparing for the Olympics is a four year ordeal during which much can happen to distract you and obstruct your progress and so you really do need single-mindedness of purpose.

"I think the biggest thing is that if I have something on my mind that I want to achieve, I don't give up and I won't stop until I realise it."

One way to develop your mental fortitude and 'sticktoittiveness' is to have a big reason why – something that will help to keep you motivated. For Phelps it's about raising the profile of swimming to the masses. He's passionate about encouraging young people to swim. Phelps' life story could have turned out rather differently. As a child he suffered with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). He was sent to swimming lessons as a positive outlet for his energy.

5. Be dedicated to the pursuit of your goals
It takes tremendous dedication to achieve your goals. You have to be prepared to make sacrifices and you have to be prepared to do things that others are not. Phelps trains twice a day for six hours a day, seven days a week. During his weekly training systems he swims the equivalent of 37-50 miles. He even trains on Christmas Day. Between 1998 and 2003, Phelps missed only three training sessions - two for a wisdom tooth operation and one because of a snowstorm.

Other outstanding athletes do similar things. For instance, great runners will train come rain or shine because they know that they cannot predict what the weather will be like when they have to compete. So they prepare themselves for as broad a range of circumstances as possible.

Likewise, whatever area you've set goals in, determine what you would have to do to give yourself that edge and then do it.
