AFFIRMATIONS TO OVERCOME SELF DOUBT

I am developing into a more daring and courageous person each day.

I am ready and prepared for anything that life throws my way.

It’s ok to have doubt sometimes. It does not define who I am.

I am always striving to be the best version of myself.

I am a powerful being that can do anything I put my mind to.

I choose not to believe the self deprecating thoughts about myself.

I am not a slave to my thoughts or emotions.

I set my own course through the ocean of life.

Standing in the inspiring vision of my future,
I boldly take every step –

Self affirmation can help stop the viscous circle of self destruction. It takes practice and determination. It does not occur overnight, or even in a week. Self affirmation does work, however, if you are diligent!

Self affirmation is you telling yourself positive things about yourself, making sure that you impart the same caring for yourself that you would provide for another.

Repeat affirmations to yourself each and every day, and each and every time your “dragon” attacks you with a negative thought. If you make this a constant habit, you will not only be able to battle the “dragon”…you will begin living the words you are telling yourself and truly believing in yourself!

Here’s a few examples of daily affirmations that you can start with.

bullet 
I love unconditionally, as well as myself. (This one especially good for those “bad hair” days, or when our dragon is tearing us down for our appearance.)

bullet 
I look for the unique gifts in people, as well as myself. (This one is good for those “should haves” and “should not haves”)

bullet 
I am worthy of respect, as well as from myself. (We would never say the same things to others that we “tell” ourselves, it’s time to break this cycle!)

bullet 
I am kind to people, as well as myself. (This goes hand in hand with the respect issue)

bullet 
I am forgiving, as well as to myself. (How often do we relentlessly beat ourselves up for a mistake?)

bullet 
I appreciate what I DO have, so I don’t need to waste time being upset over what I don’t have. (Practice writing down at least 5 things you are grateful for. 5 too many? Make it 3)

When you practice affirmations daily, you will be able to add more of your own, ones that fit your personality and situation better.

When the “dragon” rears it’s ugly head upon you, remember to go back to the first affirmation…I love unconditionally, as well as myself. Repeat this over and over, the “dragon” will not give up so easily…neither “should” you!!!

Life comes, Life Goes. this and all we know.

But do we see, why it goes.

Friends stay, Friends Leave.

Family is, Family was, is there ever a because?

Why must pass, what is, what was?

Pain it stings, Pain it Bites, Pain it takes away all Might!!

Such a hopeless, hopeless Fight.

What departs, what remains, What does constant effort gain?

What cause is worth more than Pain?

Nothing lasts, NO things Pass.
Nothing has such great Mass!

“”Do NOT FORGET this too SHALL PASS !! ……

Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom. It is the result of long and patient effort in self-control. Its presence is an indication of ripened experience, and of a more than ordinary knowledge of operations of thought.

A person becomes calm in the measure that one understands themselves as a thought evolved being, for such knowledge necessitates the understanding of others as the result of thought, and as one develops a right understanding, and sees more and more clearly the relations of things by the action of cause and effect, one ceases to fuss and fume and worry and grieve, and remains serene.

The calm person, having learned how to regulate themselves, knows how to adapt themselves to others; and they, in turn, glorify in their spiritual strength, and feel that they can learn of them, and rely upon them.

The more tranquil a person becomes, the greater is their success, their influence, their power for good.

Self-control is strength.

Calmness is power.

Say unto your heart;

“Peace, Be Still.”

Life is crazy and unfair
We cripe about it
Fight for it
It’s ours
Still we long to love it our way
Wasted years to find reasons to make
It more meaningful
Wasting more
Regretting
We haven’t proved it yet
For things we never chose
We were only meant to live
With a heart that’s pure
And a soul that’s true

FaithFul Mask :

Surrounded by unknowns 
They can not see my face 
Beneath my covers
I hide my inner secrets 
No one knows who I am
I do not wish to reveal it
The true self which lies with in
Cannot ever face the world
For I have so much to hide
And so little trust in you

I wish I could cry 
At least I would feel better 
I wish I could feel 
But I just don’t know what to feel any more 
I wish I I could think 
But my mind goes blank 

My stomach feels packed 
Hands go numb 
This feels wrong 
What have I become 
Songs can’t be sung….

Far from fine

You ask me what’s wrong,
But I can’t tell you
That doesn’t mean I’m fine,
It means I cannot find the words to tell you how I feel.

I said I was ok and you believed me
When really I wanted you to see through the lies,
How could you not see the pain I was in?

You think I’m fine because I’m not crying
But I’m so numb I cannot cry
It doesn’t mean that I’m ok.

I told you I feel like shit
You said I couldn’t know what shit felt like
I think you’re wrong.

You tell me I need to pull myself together
And to help myself
I think if it was that easy I would have already done it.
