Your subconscious thoughts determine almost everything in your mind. In order to build a positive mind, you need positive statements. You can create positive subconscious thoughts by consistently repeating positive statements. These statements are positive affirmations.

Positive affirmations will reinforce the new positive image you hold for yourself, once they are instated. Positive thinking will replace negative thinking on a conscious and subconscious level. You will then have access to all of the positive energy you have within and create a new positive reality.

When using positive affirmations, it\’s important to let yourself really feel them. You need to fully experience the emotions of each one. You must believe that each affirmation is true. This will help your positive changes happen more quickly.

The first 30 days are usually the make or break when it comes to positive affirmations. It takes about 21 days to make a change in your mental image, for some it may be longer. I suggest 30 to be safe. Writing them down until you know them by heart is a good way to start. If you are using them as frequently as you should, it will not take long.

These simple statements can be used anywhere in your home, car, work, etc. You can use them in the morning which getting ready, brushing your teeth or hair, showering, before you go to sleep or before a meal. Get creative, but remember, the affirmations should be at the same time everyday. This will help create a trigger for you. For example, every time you brush your teeth, after the first 21 days, it will just come automatically to you.

To help further change your thought pattern more quickly, you can eject all negative thoughts you experience every day as you become more aware of them. Your positive affirmations can do much good if it\’s continually battling negative thoughts and emotions. When you notice a negative thought, just make a decision that next time you will try to be more positive.

Most of humanity have overly negative minds, that was how we were raised. As you become conscious of your thought patterns, notice when your thoughts are negative and eject them. Usually, it takes times to notice these thoughts because we are caught up in the moment and acting unconsciously, but with practice, you can catch these negative as they are happening. And before long, you will become conscious of them before they even begin.
