How to Manifest Your Goals with Affirmations
FROM OLUDARA ADEEYO
Black women are powerful, brilliant, and brave, and it’s time to affirm these truths with positive and powerful affirmations that can be used to attract happiness and abundance.
Manifesting isn’t about using magic to get what you want; it’s about aligning yourself with the desires of your heart. While there are many key elements to manifesting your goals, affirmations are an essential part of that process. Remember, you must be intentional, ask your higher power directly for what you want, write down your goals, make moves toward those goals, be grateful, and release any limited thinking. Affirmations can help you do all that. Let’s break it down:
- Intentionally choose statements that speak directly to whatever you are trying to manifest—only you know what that is. Listen to your intuition, sis.
- Ask your God or the universe for what you want to achieve. You can do this by saying it out loud, writing it down, or any other way you prefer.
- Align your mind and heart with your future goal by repeating an affirmation to yourself until it sinks in and feels like the truth. Be sure to maintain an attitude of thankfulness for your present and future life: It will make a welcoming space for your desires to enter. By using a positive statement to begin changing your mindset, you are shifting your spirit energetically toward that goal.
- Use affirmations to overcome obstacles along the way. Affirmations promote shaking off any limited beliefs that could hinder you from achieving your goal, such as encouraging you to remain present while making steps toward your desired accomplishment.

I already have all the qualities to be successful.
That’s right: You already have all the qualities it takes to be successful. Now, the question is, do you believe this? Seriously. If you find yourself questioning your skills to accomplish great things, ask yourself where that thought is coming from and who told you that. Because, girl, you were born with the ability to smash all your goals. Tell impostor syndrome to shhh.
I am allowed to experience joy in the middle of pain.
