16 Career Affirmations That ACTUALLY Work
Hi, special snowflakes. How's work going? Not that great? Let us help.
Growing up in the era of "You can do anything you want if you set your mind to it!" has its perks, of course–but that "If you can dream it, you can achieve it!" attitude is not without its downsides. For example, if your career isn't going the way you'd like it to, or you didn't land your dream job, then something must be wrong with you, right?
It's so easy to get wrapped up in a failure mindset when it feels like you're falling short of your dreams–and guess what? That failure mindset is exactly what's keeping you stuck. Luckily, there's a fairly easy way to change your attitude and change your life: affirmations.
Affirmations are defined as "the practice of positive thinking and self-empowerment—fostering a belief that "a positive mental attitude supported by affirmations will achieve success in anything." While that may sound a little crazy–Repeating some pretty words can change my life?–the craziest thing is that affirmations actually work.
Take these 16 career affirmations. Pick your favorites and repeat them to yourself every morning for a month. We're willing to bet you'll notice a big change by month's end–just trust us.
