MANTRAS & AFFIRMATIONS
Developing Your Own Mantra & Affirmations for Success in Life and Business
Do you ever wonder what it takes to achieve success in life and business? How can you transform your mindset, drive the right behavior, and reach your goals in just 12 months? The answer lies in developing your own mantra and affirmations. These powerful tools can guide and inspire you every step of the way, helping you stay focused, motivated, and aligned with your vision. I want to explore with you how you can create your personal mantra and affirmations, and what success in life and business might look like within the span of a year.
1. Understanding the Power of Mantras and Affirmations
Before we dive into the process of developing your own mantra and affirmations, let's first understand the power behind these practices. A mantra is a short, positive statement of what success looks like to you. It encapsulates your goals, values, and aspirations. Affirmations, on the other hand, are thoughts or phrases that are repeated to reinforce positive beliefs and manifest desired outcomes. Together, they form a potent combination that can reshape your mindset and drive the right behavior.
2. Crafting Your Personal Mantra
Your personal mantra is like a compass that guides you towards success. It should be concise, memorable, and reflective of your core values. Take a moment to reflect on your aspirations and distill them into a powerful phrase or sentence that resonates with your soul. Your mantra should uplift and inspire you, reminding you of what you want to achieve and who you want to become.
3. Setting Clear Goals and Intentions
To create meaningful affirmations, you need to set clear goals and intentions. Ask yourself: What do I want to achieve in the next 12 months? Be specific and write down your goals in detail. Whether it's excelling in your career, starting a business, improving your relationships, or enhancing your well-being, clarity is key. When you have a clear vision, you can create affirmations that directly support your goals.
4. Aligning Your Affirmations with Your Goals
Once you have defined your goals, it's time to craft affirmations that align with them. Each affirmation should reflect a positive belief or mindset that supports your desired outcomes. For example, if your goal is to launch a successful business, your affirmation could be "I am a confident and capable entrepreneur who attracts abundance and success."
5. Embracing the Present Tense
When formulating your affirmations, it's crucial to use the present tense. By stating your affirmations as if they are already true, you signal to your subconscious mind that these beliefs are your reality. For instance, instead of saying "I will be successful," say "I am successful." This subtle shift in language reinforces the idea that you are already embodying the qualities and achievements you desire.
6. Harnessing the Emotional Power of Affirmations
To truly unlock the power of affirmations, infuse them with emotion. As you repeat your affirmations, connect with the feelings they evoke. Visualize yourself living your desired reality and let the emotions of joy, gratitude, and excitement fill your being. Emotions add depth and intensity to your affirmations, amplifying their impact and sending a powerful message to the universe.
7. Practicing Consistency and Repetition
Consistency and repetition are key to embedding your mantra and affirmations into your subconscious mind. Set aside dedicated time each day to recite and reflect on your affirmations. Whether it's in the morning, during a meditation session, or before bed, find a routine that works for you. The more you repeat your affirmations, the more they will become ingrained in your thoughts, beliefs, and actions.
8. Strengthening Your Belief System
Belief in yourself and your affirmations is vital for success. Cultivate a strong belief system by surrounding yourself with supportive people, uplifting resources, and positive environments. Seek out mentors, read inspiring books, listen to motivational podcasts, and engage in personal development practices. The more you nourish your belief system, the more resilient and determined you become in achieving your goals.
9. Overcoming Self-Limiting Beliefs
Throughout your journey, you may encounter self-limiting beliefs that hinder your progress. These beliefs often stem from past experiences or societal conditioning. Recognize and challenge these beliefs by reframing them into positive and empowering statements. Replace thoughts like "I'm not good enough" with "I am constantly growing and learning, and I have unlimited potential." By transforming your self-limiting beliefs, you open yourself up to new possibilities and opportunities.
10. Using Visualization Techniques to Amplify Your Affirmations
Visualization is a powerful tool that can enhance the effectiveness of your affirmations. Take time each day to vividly imagine yourself living your desired reality. See yourself achieving your goals, experiencing success, and embodying the qualities you aspire to. Engage all your senses and immerse yourself in the visualization. The more real and detailed your mental images, the more you reinforce your affirmations and attract the corresponding experiences into your life.
11. Integrating Your Mantra and Affirmations into Daily Life
To make your mantra and affirmations an integral part of your life, find ways to incorporate them into your daily routines and activities. Write them down and place them where you can see them throughout the day, such as on sticky notes, your phone wallpaper, or a vision board. Repeat them silently or out loud during moments of reflection, exercise, or while engaging in tasks related to your goals. By consistently integrating your mantra and affirmations into your daily life, you reinforce their impact and stay aligned with your vision.
12. Measuring and Celebrating Your Progress
Regularly assess your progress and celebrate your achievements along the way. Set milestones and track your results to stay motivated and inspired. Celebrate both small victories and significant milestones, as each step forward brings you closer to your ultimate success. Recognize the growth and positive changes

Or something else perhaps??
What are the INPUTS in your life that you consciously or subconsciously may be letting condition your thinking??
And why does it matter??
Is it possible that the way we think – our attitudes and habits of thinking, drive the way we act??
And so then our INPUTS – the things we're constantly telling ourselves, or being told (whether we want it to be or not) become a really important foundation of the success that we're bound to #achieve.?
Yes, you'll be successful by default.? You're #successful right now.? Just maybe not at the things that you'd love to be successful at.?
I've been really successful at procrastination, yo-yo dieting, and spending money I didn't have in the past... but I didn't exactly enjoy that level of #success.?
How about you??
And what can we do about consciously guiding our inputs that are conducive to the success that we actually WANT to #achieve??
Aside from the things you can cut OUT, such as not watching the news to getting out of the scroll hole (which are all helpful for sure), at Circle Leadership we place a particular emphasis then on what is going IN.?

(IN – INputs, kinda makes sense).?
And we use and teach Daily Mantras at both a Personal and Company Level to ensure that we stay on the straight and narrow to the top of the mountain that we're building as we go.?
At Circle Leadership, our organizational mantra includes things like:?
Imagine what an organization could – or would – become if THIS was the constant messaging going in, rather than bitching and bickering at the water cooler about something Karen may or may not have said??
