Affirmations are positive statements that you repeat to internalize an idea, an attitude, or a mind-set. Frequently repeating positive statements is a very effective way to change the way you think. Repeating positive affirmations like, "Each and every day, in every way, I keep upgrading myself," enables those concepts to become an integral part of your subconscious mind.

  To use affirmations, think about how you would like to be. Then keep repeating positive messages about those positive traits. Little by little, this will upgrade any quality you wish  to improve.
