How To Use Affirmations?
Always phrase affirmations in the most positive way you can. Affirm what you do want, not what you don’t want. Don’t say, “I no longer oversleep in the morning” but rather, “I now wake up on time and full of energy in the morning.” This ensures that you are creating the most positive possible mental image.
At certain times you may find it helpful to phrase affirmations negatively, especially when you are working on clearing out specific emotional blocks or bad habits, such as, “I don’t need to get tense in order to get things accomplished.” If so, you should always follow this type of affirmation with a positive one, which describes that which you desire to create, such-as, “I now stay deeply relaxed and centered, and everything is accomplished easily and effortlessly.”
In general, the shorter and simpler the affirmation, the more effective. An affirmation should be a clear statement that conveys a strong feeling; the more feeling it conveys, the stronger impression it makes on your mind. Affirmations that are long, wordy and theoretical lose their emotional impact and become a “head trip”.

I am a firm believer in affirmations. I have affirmations that I repeat every morning and they start my day off right. They also give me so many ideas I barely can keep up.
I read ‘Success Through A Positive Mental Attitude’ by Napoleon Hill and W. Clement Stone to inspire me. My book is about to fall apart I have read it so much.
If you make it a habit to do your affirmations and read some everyday from a positive thinking book you will continue to improve yourself and your finances.
Have a great day and ‘think and grow rich’.
