The power of affirmations when it comes to achieving success in life is truly unprecedented.
You might initially think that they are “just words”, but those same words are able to carry some immense power that can truly change your life.
By repeating certain affirmations to yourself you can significantly change how you view the world, and how you interact with it.
This is because our thoughts create our reality, so by changing what we think about something, we can change our behaviors towards it.
This is why affirmations have risen to such meteoric popularity in recent years, and why they are viewed as being so powerful.
There are affirmations to improve all sorts of things, such as mood, or to help counter negative emotions such as anger.
But are there any that can help to foster a sense of growth and personal development? Yes, there are! Let’s look at some of the best!
I Am Calm
Sometimes the most effective change comes about as a result of facing immense adversity, and this affirmation is a perfect reflection of this fact.
This affirmation reminds us that, though how we interact with the world can sometimes be influenced by things outside of our control, we can still change how we react to those things in small ways.
This affirmation makes for a great hit of self-esteem when facing a difficult challenge, which allows you to persevere, and thus develop as a person and experience new things.
Fear Is Preventing Me From Growing. So I Let Go Of It
Fear is commonly cited as one of the biggest roadblocks to personal potential. Fear can cause us to give up on long-held dreams, or force us to be complacent with our lives.
Simply reciting this affirmation to yourself will remind you that you have the choice to ignore fearful and negative thoughts, and that those same thoughts cannot control your destiny, and what you do with your life.
This affirmation is wonderful for helping you overcome fears that may be holding you back from reaching your full potential.

I Won’t Lose Sleep Over What I Can’t Control
Whenever we seek growth or personal development, we very often find ourselves losing sleep thinking about the thousands of things we wish we could control or the thousands of things we wish we could have done differently.
This can actually be detrimental to personal growth, and so this affirmation makes it easier to relinquish worry over things you cannot control, and leave them up to fate while you focus on the things you can control.
This affirmation is the perfect solution if you need to put things into perspective to regain a sense of control over yourself.
There’s No True Reward Without Some Risk
Many of us can tend to view life as a series of ups and downs, wherein the done periods are a result of some failure on our behalf. This affirmation reminds us of the balance inherent in all of our days.
In order for your good days to feel truly good, you need to have experienced some bad days.
This affirmation also reminds us that when things may seem at their lowest, we may just be on the cusp of great things and that it is just a matter of persevering until the very end!
Small Changes Will Add Up Over Time. Keep It Up!
Changing and growing as a person can be something of a process, and thus it can take some time before significant change makes itself apparent.
The key here is to keep going because even small changes add up over time. The more you work towards your goals, the sooner they will come to fruition.
This affirmation reminds us that even on days when it feels like we have barely made any progress, we have still at least made some progress and that the end goal is ever closer with each step, no matter how small each step may actually be.
It’ll Work Out In Good Time
Sometimes we just need to put a little bit of faith into the universe to trust that it will help us to achieve our goals of growth and that everything will work out eventually, provided we continue to work onward to see the end result.
This affirmation can be wonderful for letting go of worries about things that you cannot change, which can vastly improve your quality of life, and thus improve your ability to chase your goals.
My Mindset Frames My Reality
How we choose to perceive the world can directly impact exactly how we interact with it.
Thus, if we choose to believe that we are making progress each and every day, we are far more likely to put in the requisite steps to achieve that goal.
This is a self-fulfilling prophecy, which helps to make this easily one of the strongest affirmations on this list. It will help you to feel ready to take on absolutely every challenge life may present to you.
I Am Full Of Gratitude
When aiming for a goal of personal growth, it can very often be easy to fall into the trap of believing that, because we have yet to reach our ultimate goal, we have thus made no progress.
This affirmation serves as a perfect way to remind yourself of the significant effort you have already put into the growth process, and the considerable growth you have already experienced so far.
This helps you to put everything into perspective and helps you to feel far more motivated.
