August Affirmations

Every month that passes with this year is filling me with more hope. More comfort. More of a sense of ease. More optimism. It appears we’re still in the thick of it. In some ways, reverting backwards on the road of progress, on the road back to “normal”; and somehow, that fact alone is proving so much. We’re getting through. We’re figuring it out. We’re adjusting into new types of joy, finding ways to enjoy ourselves anyway. We’re making magic happen with what this year has given us. That reminds me of a quote…

“Magic lies in challenging what seems impossible.” -Carol Moseley Braun

None of us imagined this pandemic stretching this far into time. None of us thought we could adjust and get used to what was never a part of our lives until now. We’re doing it, and most importantly, we’re doing it with more joy. 

Here are some affirmations to keep us in this state, or put you there, if you haven’t been yet. 

I create magic with my optimism. 

I find joy in every space I enter. 

I relish in the opportunity to learn from new circumstances. 

I find solutions where they don’t appear possible. 

I stand firm in my belief that all things are possible. 

I see magic in the ways that my life unfolds. 

None of this is a mistake. Continue to take what you’re handed and make it even better. You always have the ability to do that, to optimize whatever life gives you. That is your magic. Happy New Month.
