Affirmations are very uncomfortable to say, let alone believe. At first. When you are doing them, you are actually rewiring your brain, and it feels down-right wrong. Your thinking over all these years has worn a groove in your psyche, in the way you look at yourself. You have to "reformat" things. It doesn't take as long as you might think, but it does take determination and effort on your part - you can't give up when it feels silly, or stupid, or like lies. Just keep doing it.
Look up ways to write your own affirmations, or read some on the internet. You have to do these many times throughout the day. The more you practice, the less time it will take (just like learning any new skill, like riding a bike).
I'm trying to remember, but didn't friends here try to get you started a while back?
