While the exact origins of affirmations are somewhat unclear, it is believed that they first gained popularity in the early 20th century. Some believe that French author Emile Coué was the first to really champion their use, while others credit self-help guru Napoleon Hill. Regardless of who was the first to espouse their power, there is no denying that affirmations have helped countless people achieve their goals and improve their lives.

What are affirmations exactly? They are simply positive statements that we repeat to ourselves in order to program our minds for success. For example, if you are trying to lose weight, you might repeat the affirmation “I am healthy and slim” several times each day. By repeatedly telling yourself this, you are essentially training your brain to believe it, which will in turn help you to make healthier choices and reach your goals.
