Visionary Realism: Affirmations That Increase Self-Trust, Not Cognitive Dissonance
For affirmations to be truly effective, they must align with our internal reality and foster self-trust rather than create cognitive dissonance. Cognitive dissonance occurs when there is a conflict between our beliefs and our affirmations, leading to feelings of discomfort and doubt. This lesson focuses on crafting affirmations that increase self-trust by being realistic, achievable, and aligned with our true self.
Ungrounded affirmations can seem helpful in the short term, but in the long-term can be a form of spiritual bypassing and promote a habit of "reality distortion" that is not in integrity with a pursuit of truth and growth.
When affirmations are grounded in our current abilities and experiences, they reinforce our self-belief and encourage gradual growth. By acknowledging where we are and focusing on incremental improvements, we create a foundation of trust and authenticity.

This practice not only keeps your affirmations relevant but also reinforces your commitment to continuous improvement. By aligning your affirmations with your evolving self, you can maintain their impact and ensure they inspire you to reach new heights.
