There is nothing worse than working at a place you don’t feel your best. When your job consumes all your energy, it can start to affect all areas of your life. Having a plan in place to keep your mental health in check is key. Affirmations can help you with your mindset but making sure you are seeking the resources you need will make the situation better.
Consider reaching out to your human resource team or considering having a meeting with your manager. If it’s far beyond fixing, try starting therapy if that’s available. A therapist can help you focus on your confidence and guide you to find a new job that makes sense for you.
WHAT’S AN AFFIRMATION?
A positive statement is used to help you overcome negative thoughts and ideas. The message is usually written in the first person and can be long or short sentences. The purpose of affirmations is to develop a habit of positive thinking and self-empowerment.
WHY ARE AFFIRMATIONS IMPORTANT?
Affirmations can help you change your mindset on a difficult idea or situation. They can increase self-esteem, gratitude, and help you overcome loss for example. With all the distractions of the world, affirmations help you remind yourself daily of what is your priority in your personal healing journey.
HOW CAN I USE AFFIRMATIONS?
Affirmations can be used in various ways but the important part is to continuously do them. It’s like working out! One workout will make you feel good but it won’t change your body. You can practice affirmations by reading them out loud, writing them down, or simply having them saved as your lock screen. Interacting with affirmations daily on the topic you choose will improve your life for the better. My recommendation is to get creative with where you feel you will best use them. An example would be to write an affirmation down on a sticky note and hang it on your mirror. Say it every day for a week and then create a new one the following week. It’s all about you.
