Daily Affirmations: Your Hour-by-Hour Positivity Plan

by: Melissa Carver, Ph.D.

An affirmation is a statement of assurance that helps reprogram old thought processes to create new patterns. Affirmations are especially helpful when you have a goal in mind or when if feels like certain things in your life need work. But that’s not the only time you should pull them out.

Daily, even hourly, affirmations stabilize the thoughts of the now, keeping a steady flow of good intentions—and those intentions are what create outcomes. Hourly affirmation statements slowly become the quiet thoughts of your mind with little effort. Below is an hour-by-hour schedule of affirmations that will help keep you in a positive mindset. If the times don’t match your exact routine, use these ideas to create your own daily affirmation schedule.

Since it takes 21 days to create a habit, try these hourly affirmations for three full weeks. Take notes about your feelings, outcomes, and thoughts as this new way of thinking becomes part of your daily routine.

You do not need to believe these statements to speak them or think them. If you don’t yet believe that you are peaceful, that’s OK. “Fake it ‘til you make it.” That is what reprogramming is all about. Affirm it until you believe it. When you believe it, the world and universe will follow your lead.
