What Are Affirmations?
Affirmations are positive statements or phrases (said out loud) that are repeated with the intention of promoting a positive mindset and influencing one’s thoughts and behaviours.
There is a science behind this as well! According to a study, “affirmations can decrease stress, increase well being, improve academic performance and make people more open to behavior change”
The idea is that by consistently repeating positive statements, individuals can reshape their thinking patterns, boost self-esteem, and cultivate a more optimistic outlook on life.
Here are 6 tips to help you get the most out of your affirmations:
1. Choose Positive & Personalised Affirmations

Select affirmations that are positive, uplifting, and resonate with your goals and values.

Make them specific and tailored to your individual aspirations and areas for personal growth.
2. Use Present Tense & Positive Language
-
Phrase your affirmations in the present tense, as if the desired outcomes are already happening.
-
Use positive language to frame your statements and focus on what you want to attract or achieve.
3. Be Consistent & Repeat Regularly
-
Repeat your affirmations consistently, ideally on a daily basis.
-
Incorporate them into your morning or bedtime routine to create a habit.
4. Combine Your Affirmations With Visualisation Techniques
-
Imagine yourself experiencing the positive outcomes described in your affirmations.
-
Visualising the success or positive change reinforces the belief in the affirmations.
-
Include statements of gratitude in your affirmations. Express appreciation for the positive aspects of your life.

Focusing on gratitude can amplify the positive effects of your affirmations.
6. Create Affirmation Cards Or Notes

Write your affirmations on cards or sticky notes and place them in visible places, such as your desk, bathroom mirror, or refrigerator.

Having visual reminders helps reinforce the positive messages throughout the day.
What Is Luck?
Luck is a concept that is often used to describe an unpredictable and seemingly random force that brings about positive or negative events in a person’s life.
It is often attributed to chance or fate and is considered outside of one’s control. The concept of luck is subjective and varies across cultures and individuals.
Traditions & Symbols Of ‘Luck’ Across Different Cultures
Cultural beliefs about luck vary widely around the world, and different societies have their own interpretations of what brings good or bad luck.
These beliefs often influence traditions, customs, and behaviours.
Here are some examples of luck in cultural beliefs:
Number 7 (Western Cultures): In many Western cultures, the number 7 is often considered lucky. This belief has historical and religious roots, such as the seven wonders of the world, seven days of the week, and the association with good fortune in various religious texts.
Number 8 (Chinese Culture): In Chinese culture, the number 8 is considered very lucky. It is associated with wealth and prosperity due to its pronunciation, which sounds similar to the word for wealth or prosperity in Mandarin.
Four-Leaf Clovers (Celtic Culture): In Celtic culture, finding a four-leaf clover is considered extremely lucky. Each leaf is believed to represent something: hope, faith, love and luck.
Horseshoes (Western Folklore): Hanging a horseshoe above a doorway is a symbol of good luck in Western folklore. The tradition is said to bring good fortune and protect the home from evil spirits.
Maneki-neko (Japanese Culture): The Maneki-neko, or “beckoning cat,” is a popular Japanese figurine believed to bring good luck and fortune to its owner, especially in business.
Elephants (Various Cultures): In various cultures, elephants are considered symbols of good luck, wisdom, and strength. The trunk-up position is often associated with good fortune.
Dream Catchers (Native American Culture): Dream catchers, originating from Native American cultures, are believed to filter out bad dreams and allow only good dreams to pass through, bringing luck and positive energy.
Red in Chinese Culture: Red is considered a colour that brings good luck and happiness in Chinese culture. Red envelopes, red clothing, and red decorations are commonly associated with celebrations and festivals.
Swastika (Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism): The swastika, an ancient symbol with positive connotations, is considered auspicious and a symbol of good luck in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. However, it was unfortunately co-opted by the Nazis and is now associated with hate in many Western cultures.
Eating Specific Foods (New Year’s Traditions): Many cultures have specific foods that are traditionally eaten during New Year’s celebrations to bring good luck. For example, in some cultures, eating round fruits symbolises prosperity and good fortune.

Select 3-5 affirmations and repeat them at least 3 times a day, in the morning after waking, once in the afternoon and in the night just before are great times, but there really is no one-size-fits-all approach, and the best time for you may depend on your individual preferences and schedule.
The key is to choose a time that allows you to be present and focused on the positive statements you are making.
Wishing you an abundance of good luck on your path!
