Quote:

Steven Covey, in his runaway best seller, "Seven Habits of the Most Effective People, suggested that we can use our right brain power of visualization to write an affirmation that will help us become more congruent with our deeper values in our daily life.

According to Covey, a good affirmation has five basic ingredients:

It's personal,
It's positive,
It's present tense,
It's visual, and
It's emotional.

He provides an example of an affirmation.
