Positive Affirmations

In text form:

Here are some affirmations that can help you to reframe your thoughts and let go of any negative self-doubt or impostor syndrome that you may be feeling.

I am capable and competent.
I am worthy and deserving of success.
I trust in my abilities and the effort I put forth.
I am enough, exactly as I am.
I am learning and growing with each challenge I face.

It’s important to remember that everyone experiences moments of self-doubt and uncertainty, and it’s okay to not feel confident all the time.

The key is to recognize and acknowledge those feelings, and then remind ourselves of our strengths and capabilities.
