Journal Prompt + Affirmation Exercise:📝✨

•On the left side of a page, write all the things you’re currently struggling with or doubting

(e.g. “I am not doing well in school,” “I feel stuck,”) 😭    

•On the right side, flip each one into a positive affirmation as though it is already true

(e.g. “I am getting all A’s,” “I am growing and making progress,”)🥰

•After you finish, tear out or cut out the positive side, tape or place it on your mirror (or somewhere visible)🪞   

•Read it daily, ideally first thing in the morning and/or before bed💤

•Over time, let it rewire your self-narrative and reinforce the positive beliefs💖
