Motivation takes many forms. For some, it is the end game—the promise of a goal yet to be achieved. For others, it is a collection of well-crafted rules and guidelines that narrow the path forward. No straying, no flailing. Eyes on the prize.

While some high-performers eschew the idea of affirmation as a motivation—claiming it creates a false, fluffy reality—it has clear purpose as an impetus for growth.

1. Bookend your day with self-affirmations—one in the morning and one at night.

This is an ideal way to bracket the work you’ve done in a spirit of positivity and forward momentum.

2. Whenever you accomplish something positive in your day, write it down. 

At the end of the day or week, review the list to remind yourself of how often you do good deeds—for yourself and others.

3. Don’t forget that YOU are as important as your peers and family.

These affirmations aren’t just about what you accomplish to help and support other people.

4. Remember: Little things are the big things. 

We may think that a pat on the back or a smile during a co-worker’s stressful morning is of no consequence.

5. Profess; don’t confess.

For many, the temptation to sidestep into confessional thinking is strong. But the object of self-affirmation is not to counterbalance good deeds and heartfelt intention with guilt.

6. For every good deed you affirm, think of another you can perform the following day. 

Ask yourself what skills you’re not using and what passions you’re not sharing
