When you are having a bad day you can say to yourself: “No one can steal my joy. It is mine to give, to share, and to enjoy.”

Some people use affirmations only when they’re under stress. One thing to keep in mind when you use affirmations is that the more you use them, or reaffirm them, the more power that they have.
