☀️ Morning Words
How to write your own morning affirmation
A morning affirmation is one short, kind sentence you say to yourself every morning, before you look at your phone. Your own words will work best. Here's how to write yours.
How to make yours
- 1Keep it short: one sentence you can say in one breath.
- 2Make it believable. "I can make it through today" sinks in more easily than "Today will be perfect."
- 3Make it about you. Your words, your day.
- 4Say it before grabbing any electronic devices. Out loud, in a whisper, or in your head. All fine.
- 5Same words every morning. Give it a week, it grows on you.
Some examples to start from
"Today, I only need to take care of today."
"Small is still forward."
"I will say good morning expecting nothing back, and that will be enough."
That's the whole practice. One breath, one sentence, then the day.
