How often do you say things out loud to other people that you would never even consider saying to yourself?
If you want to improve your relationships, you should start practicing positive affirmations.
Positive affirmations are statements that you repeat to yourself over and over again.
They can be anything from simple phrases like “I am beautiful” or “I love myself” to more complex ones like “I am worthy of happiness” or “My life has a purpose.”
These thoughts can become powerful self-fulfilling prophecies.
When you practice positive affirmations, you’re telling yourself that you deserve good things.
This helps you believe that you already have them, and you’ll eventually get them. As a result, you’ll begin to attract more of the same into your life.
Take a look at our favorite affirmations for friendships below!

How To Successfully Use Affirmations For Friends
It is important to remember that affirmations are most successful when they are combined with positive actions.
For the best results, we recommend choosing a handful of affirmations that resonate with you and your aims.
Then, make sure to say them to yourself every day (we like doing so in the morning). You shouldn’t be shy when you say them to yourself.
It is important that you try to believe the words you are saying. Be sure to project the affirmations with enthusiasm and excitement.
Alongside this practice, we have found that making a small change every day (or week if that’s too much) works best.
For instance, if you feel as though you are struggling to nurture your friendships, you could reach out to one in particular and aim to make plans with them.
Or, if you want to meet new friends, you could reach out to colleagues that you feel you may get along with.
Begin a conversation with a friendly neighbor or stranger that you sit next to on the train, or even take up a new hobby that would force you to introduce yourself to new people (e.g. join a book group).
Finally, it is necessary to note that, once you start to attract new friendships, you need to choose which ones to nurture.
Not everyone you meet is destined to be your best friend – so don’t force it! You will meet people that you resonate with, and when you do, make sure that you nurture those relationships!
