Core Value: See the Beauty (Affirmation Challenge)
One of the core values of the Brit Schmit brand is “SEE THE BEAUTY”. We believe in seeing the beauty
· In yourself
· In others
· In the world around you
And by “beauty”, I don’t just mean physical beauty. I am talking about the value and the worth we place on something.
How we see the world depends so much on how we see ourselves first. So often, if I’m about to do something bigger than I have ever done, for example, before I presented my business pitch on stage to a panel of judges and the public for the Sheridan Startup Challenge, there are moments when I feel overwhelmed, or the task feels daunting.
But when I remind myself of who I am or who I am striving to be, and naming those things either in my journal or in my mind, like
“I have something valuable to share” or
“I have done the work. I know my business.” Or
“I am able to effectively communicate my intentions.”
Affirming myself in this way allows me to see myself in a confident, positive light, and makes the task seem less daunting and helps me feel more capable of tackling it.
AFFIRMATION CHALLENGE: Write down 3-5 affirmations for yourself (though if you’re feeling stuck, just start with one). These can be things you need to remind yourself of, or things you want to happen, but write them as if they have already happened. For example)
“I have exceptionally good relationships with my kids.”
“I have completed my first 5K.”
“I see myself as more than a body.”
“My home is a safe place, a place to be surrounded by beauty, a place to gather.”
“I nailed that webinar. I was clear, concise, and persuasive.”
Don’t be afraid to DREAM BIG either. Two of my affirmations right now are…
“I own a billion dollar company that glorifies God and has a global impact.”
And
“I help women in the sex industry.”
I don’t know when or how these will happen, but I am setting my mind on them.
Write your affirmations in a journal or in a notebook, or somewhere EVERY DAY, for 30 days, and see what happens. I am going on three months of writing mine and they have empowered me and helped me show up more confidently as the wife, mom, and business owner I want to be.
