Lead Grow Develop: Positive Affirmation Cards
Quick Affirmation Card Downloads:
You’ve packed away the holiday decorations, and January is half over, which means you may be about to give up those New Year’s resolutions. You aren’t alone — 30% of people setting New Year’s resolutions are likely to give up in the first two weeks of January. So rather than getting down on yourself, try adding these positive affirmations for women into your daily routine.
Positive affirmations are positive statements you repeat to yourself to cut off the negative self-talk that, over time, leads you to quit trying to make positive changes in your life. We often give up on our New Year’s resolutions because we don’t think we’ll be successful, and we believe it’s better to quit while we’re ahead rather than put in the effort and still fail.
For affirmations to work, you need to say them to yourself every day in a confident voice until they replace any negative self-talk habits you may have. Habit research shows that this can take at least 30 days of intentional, focused practice. Remember to say your affirmations by printing them off and leaving them where you are sure to see them every day, like on your bathroom mirror, the fridge, or your computer monitor.

Affirmations to Increase Body Positivity
Losing weight and getting more exercise are probably the two most common New Year’s resolutions every year, and while those are admirable goals, what about working on being more at home in our bodies?
If we are more positive about our bodies in their current state, there’s a good chance we’ll be more likely to stick with our weight loss and workout goals instead of giving up when we don’t see fast results.
Stick these body-positive affirmations on your bathroom mirror or on the treadmill to look at instead of distance, speed, or time displays.
