I do not accept that Monday mornings have to be doom and gloom. I jump out of bed on a Monday morning ready to sock the rest of the week right in the face and a couple of good Monday morning affirmations do me more good than a strong cup of coffee.
Normally we talk about affirmations shaping our lives in the long term but setting yourself up for success at the start of the week can have a huge impact right away. On the other hand, heading into the week with the wrong mindset can set you back. Don’t fall into the same trap as most people. Monday can be the best day of your week and it all starts with how you frame your mind.
Don’t forget, if you’re new to affirmations (or you’ve not seen the life-altering results yet) you can use our free step-by-step affirmation workbook to avoid the common mistakes and make sure you’re getting the most out of your affirmation practice.
Don’t be passive with your week. Tell the universe this Monday is going to be yours.

Do Morning Affirmations Work?
Affirmations have loads of backing in both scientific studies and spiritual work. From hard-tested data to anecdotal evidence and if you’ve seen my own story you’ll know why I’m so excited by their power however, like anything, Monday morning affirmations are a tool. You get out of them what you put in.
Most people don’t see results with affirmations. They either don’t understand how or why affirmations work, they expect their lives to instantly transform moments after uttering the words or they fall into one of the other (common) traps (which is exactly why we put together the workbook to follow along).
You have to keep faith in and be patient with yourself. If you’ve held a negative belief around Mondays for many years, developing a positive mindset will be a work in progress. Don’t just say the words with empty meaninglessness. You must infest yourself on an emotional, psychological and spiritual level.
Don’t merely say the words, but believe them, visualize them and feel them down to the core of your heart and soul. Some may not jive well with you and how you feel about things. This is absolutely fine. Perhaps these Monday affirmations will spark your creativity to come up with your own.
Why Monday Affirmations Are So Powerful
Affirmations can be powerful in any aspect of your life but there’s certainly something to be said for using them on a Monday morning.
Negative affirmations can be more powerful than positive ones (sadly) and the daily grind of life puts a lot of us into this mindset of Monday morning sucks and that’s starting our week off on the back foot. However small a change your early manifestations might make, even a slight impact this early in the week can set you up for strong success.
And I do mean in any aspect of your life. Not just your professional or academic life, start your Monday morning right and see what I mean for yourself.
Bonus: Affirmation Cards
If you find an affirmation that speaks to you, save the image and use it as a background or, better yet, print it out and use it as part of a manifestation box. You might also wish to share the card with someone who might need to hear the message.
