Power Monday #70 Why Affirmations Don't Always Work

Published: Mar 9, 2015 · Modified: Jul 23, 2017 by Rebecca Pytell · This post may contain affiliate links.

After reading these two posts on Mind Body Green and having to do a 21 day affirmation project for one of my classes this semester, I've had affirmations on my mind a lot recently. Now first of all, I'm not one for all those motivational quotes and inspiration images you see all over Pinterest and Instagram. Quite frankly, I hate them most of the time.

So when I was forced to do a project with creating an affirmation and saying it everyday for 21 days, I didn't like it. I think that fact that we crafted our own affirmations instead of using some cheesy "over said" one you might find online, it was a bit better, but still not for me. I thought after 3 weeks I might find it more pleasant, but still not for me.

Why Affirmations Don't Always Work | Strength and Sunshine @RebeccaGF666 #powermonday #motivation #affirmations

The problem I find and which is touched upon in those articles from Mind Body Green, is that simply saying something isn't going to change a thing. You can't expect to say something a have it magically happen or even change your mindset. Just like you can't say you're going to run a marathon tomorrow with no prior training and survive. It's just not realistic.

Affirmations are supposed to be used to create a positive change in mindset and affirm, "declare", something. It's a declaration or supportive statement. But that's all it is support. It's really just strung together words that have no meaning if you don't take action on them (and fully believe them!). It's the passive "Have a good day!" from the cashier after you check-out at the grocery. That's great that you should have a good day, it may even put a smile on your face, but if you don't actually do anything to MAKE it a great day, it's not just going to happen.

Too many people think that by adopting a daily affirmation practice, they will automatically find all the answers to happiness, peace, and success. Some may find that having a personal affirmation does help them set the tone for the day, but other's, (like me) don't find them helpful and know that they are not a magic elixir.

To truly achieve the happiness, peace, and success we all strive for and the positive mindset we want to cultivate everyday, we need to do more. We need to take ACTION. Not just AFFIRMATION. However, to get yourself to take action, that does start with getting your mindset in the right place. You can do that by saying an affirmation, motto, hat have you, or by making goals, beginning the day with mediation, unplugging, going for a walk, etc. Just something to set your day, you week, with a simple "noise-free" tone and attitude.

Once you have yourself thinking clearly, you can now take action to make your "affirmation" a reality. If you still want to say an affirmation each day, after you say it, take one step or action toward bettering yourself. Whether it be having a healthy breakfast to promote your goal of eating healthier, a workout to build some strength, writing to that publisher about that book deal you want, even writing a page of that novel, painting your nails to give you a boost of confidence, whatever! Just take one small action and make that "good day" a reality and not just a stung together phrase of inactive words.

Over time, each day, you will be creating the happiness, peace, and success you want actively. You're turning your affirmation into an action that will produce results. If you want to not only believe your affirmation will be a real manifestation, then you need to take action. The only way you will be "confident", "healthy", "successful", "not let stress consume you", "be present and mindful in your day", you need to take real actions in doing so and not just say it.

So in a way, affirmations have potential, you just have to make them a reality and physically work toward making them happen. It's not enough to look in the mirror and speak you success or happiness. I wish you should simply say "I have peace and I am a being of kindness, beauty, and confidence," and have it become a reality. But with everything in life, it's going to take work, hard work, each and every day.

So, do I like affirmations? Do they always work? No, but they can if they are acted upon. That's why I like activity, I hate idle behavior. I'm sick of saying something, hearing something, and having it not happen....when it 100% could! Next time you say your affirmation or you even think about starting an affirmation practice, keep this in mind: every small ACTION creates a CHAIN REACTION to making your affirmation a reality.

Power Monday | Strength and Sunshine @RebeccaGF666 #PowerMonday

So tell me:

+ Do you have a daily affirmation practice?

+ If so, do you find them effective? Do you combine them with taking real action?

    Nicely said. I have waffled on the whole positive affirmation thing. I started out thinking they were silly. Then I took a course in college where the prof thought they were amazing and *totally* believed in them and thought they were a huge way of life and could help people achieve anything they wanted if they had faith in what they believed (and even convinced me to read "You Can Heal Your Life" - good read actually). I got so into it that I had an affirmation for moving to California. I thought about it every day for several months and it did happen. I didn't take any real action to make this happen as it is quite difficult for Canadians to move to the US and my husband totally chalks it up to luck and timing. I'm still not sure what to believe, I'm not like that about them anymore though. I agree more with your line of thinking now. I think that good things can happen if we want them and are willing to put a lot of work to it. In general, I just try to think positively about things and life in general =)

    I don't usually do affirmations, but I did have certain statements I'd keep reminding myself of (*cough* "Fake it til you make it!"/"Just keep on truckin', Farrah!" *cough*) throughout my psych rotation (hah)! I think having reminders are great, but like you said, they accomplish nothing unless you actually act on em'!

    Words are powerful. One thing that is important to take into consideration is that we're all wired and motivated differently. Take the example of the "love languages". Some people need words of affirmation in order to feel loved. Others are more moved by acts of service or gifts instead. What makes each of us FEEL love is different. Similarly, what gets each of us into a positive and productive mindset is different. No, I don't think words are as powerful in the absence of action. But I do believe that words, repeated and focused on, become self-fulfilling because words can shape thoughts and thoughts can shape feelings and feelings greatly impact your behavior and actions. This is why leaders are more often than not great speakers, but the greatest leaders are both speakers and DOERS.

    I agree that they are just words but I do 100% believe that words have power beyond our understanding. For example if someone tells themselve every day that they're fat, they'll just stay fat because that's what is engrained in the brain. But if someone says I love to exercise every day, studies have show that people will begin to move more (not right away but over a short period of time). Affirmations are set to change the brain's thinking. Have the brain thinking positive and we're more likely to be positive which leads to positive steps forward. I agree, I hate seeing them in instagram feeds and I think they are more of a personal journey, but I am all for them. Great thought provoking post!!! Lovei t.

      I do think they can inspire change if you truly form them to your individual self AND believe them. But then it takes action for them to actually work (you won't get in shape if you just look at yourself in the mirror telling yourself you are!)

    Every morning when I meditate I tell myself to keep positive vibes/thoughts. It won't actually happen unless I take action to be positive and keep it throughout the day. I also agree that affirmations won't change you - YOU have to make it happen!

    Loved reading this post- so true! I like to repeat affirmations/words of encouragement in my head, but of course I pair these positive thoughts with actions that help me live a happier and more mindful life. I don't have a daily practice, I just try to be consistent with my actions and thoughts- if that makes sense! Happy Monday!

    Hi Rebecca,
    Very well said. Affirmations are all well and good but I feel there over rated and give some people a false sense of security. Thinks happen in life that we cannot control and although working at what we want is extremely important - sometimes are just not suppose to be.

    Well said Rebecca! I've yet to hear a really successful person say that he/she got to where they are because they kept telling themselves that they could do it. Believing in yourself is definitely a necessary component to making things happen, but hard work is the key ingredient.

    I've always had similar trouble with affirmations, I generally find them useless unless there's also specific action taken with them. Reminds me of a cognitive behavioral approach in psychology, which is also considered very effective, so you're definitely onto something here! I'm also one of those people though who doesn't like "cheese" because I find it phony, and often people like to talk a whole lot without doing much to back it up. Okay, now I'm off on a rant, oops!

    I agree mostly. I have a rotating set of "affirmations", mostly using them to re-focus myself on what I want to achieve. For me they are a means to an end, part of the strategy, not the sole vehicle. As such, I certainly agree that saying "I will be X" doesn't lead anywhere if you don't change your routines. However I find they strengthen your resolve for staying on course, helping to overcome negative thinking patterns that otherwise could run the show.

    I've never really believed much in affirmations...I'm a doer, not just a sit there and thinker. But they will keep whatever that goal is at the forefront of your mind, and make sure you don't forget to be working towards it. I like the chain reaction concept! Everything in life is really a chain reaction if you think about it, some just bigger than others 🙂

    I don't have any daily affirmations, BUT I do agree that in order for that to actually work, you have to take action. Being in the right mindset is key for me though- I do have to prepare myself in advance mentally before I can do a lot of things that I do. I don't have anything specific for daily affirmations- it really depends on the day around here, but I do have mini goals I keep in my mind that I am looking to accomplish. I don't specifically focus on them everyday but I know they're there and am constantly making progress to reach those goals 🙂

You're right though. What good is it to dwell on words if you don't do anything about it. Practice makes perfect, right? 😉

What is good for me one day may be terrible advice for me the next! I like your idea of action rather than affirmation 😀
