50 Positive Affirmations For Self-Esteem

Quotes & Affirmations

What if I told you that you (yes, YOU!) hold the power to determine your worth in life? That’s A LOT of power. What often happens, though, is we tend to use this incredible power in a harmful way. We become our worst enemies and continue to undermine our value on the daily – whether it’s talking yourself out of taking that job promotion, or turning down a date with a great guy because you think you can’t be his type. Raise your hand if you’ve been there! I’m raising both of mine!

But, here’s the good news about all this – your power remains. It is yours. You have it forever. As strong as it is to harm you, it will remain equally as strong to heal you. And you hold all the power to make that shift. I don’t know about you, but that’s some pretty empowering stuff!


DISCLAIMER: You should not rely on this information as a substitute for, nor does it replace professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. If you have any concerns or questions about your health, you should always consult with a physician or other health-care professional.


Here’s the deal:

Your beliefs about yourself, and what you tell yourself, has an important connection to your self-esteem. If you are telling yourself that you are unworthy, it’s likely because you believe that you are. But guess what!? This crucial connection can also be used to nurture your self-esteem by merely working to change your inner dialogue and your beliefs about yourself. Affirmations can help you combat these negative beliefs. Which is why positive affirmations for self-esteem are so useful.

What’s an affirmation?

Simply put, to affirm means to state something as true. A positive affirmation is a statement used to challenge a negative and unhelpful thought. By repeating a positive affirmation, you begin to challenge your unhelpful subconscious thinking patterns and replace them with more realistic and helpful ones. They can be used to boost your self-esteem, help you achieve your goals, help you to push through fear, or to be more grateful or joyful. They are specific to your situation and aimed at improving something personal to you.

It’s important to note that this process takes time and only works if an individual is open and ready to make a positive change.

How to write an affirmation?

  • Start with I or My
  • Keep them in the present tense
  • Keep them short and easy to remember
  • Don’t include negative words like “don’t” , “won’t”, “can’t”
  • Make them specific to you

How often should you repeat a positive affirmation?

According to Leena S. Guptha, DO at psychologytoday.com, each affirmation should be repeated ten times daily. And, it’s best to do this when your subconscious mind is most relaxed and open to it – for instance, before falling asleep or during a meditative state. If this proves too difficult, try repeating your affirmations once or twice a day, with feeling. Looking at yourself in the mirror, as you do it, can also be helpful!
