As a social leader, you regularly face challenge and uncertainty. The grind can be draining. So, it’s important to counteract it with a daily dose of confident self-talk. A power affirmation is a great way to start your day. It fills you with positive energy and reminds you of your value. Try my morning power affirmation routine and take on the world!

Face the Mirror

This power affirmation is a conversation with yourself. So, it’s best to do it in front of a mirror. Make eye contact. You can do it before you put on your makeup or while you brush your teeth. It’s pretty fun to point at yourself with your toothbrush for emphasis.

Strike a Power Pose

Research shows that a power pose can make you feel more confident and ready. So, put on your best power pose in front of that mirror! Choose your favorite. Mine is the classic Wonder Woman pose – feet apart, fists on hips.

Say Your Affirmation Phrases

Once you are in front of the mirror in your power pose, you are ready to speak. In a clear voice (doesn’t have to be loud), say things that make you feel empowered and full of energy. Here are my power affirmation phrases:

“I believe”

“I can change the world”

“I add value everywhere I go”

“I am strong”

“I rise”

“I help others rise”

“Yes, I can”

“Yes, I will”

“This is going to be a great day”

I feel energized just writing that!! If you prefer, you can come up with your own phrases. Just make them snappy and full of meaning.

After this power affirmation, you are ready to tackle your day. Try it for a week and let me know how it goes. For even greater effect, combine it with my empowering bedtime routine. Use your power affirmation routine whenever you need a boost. It works before big meetings or when you are feeling down.
