Questions people ask
Do I have to believe an affirmation for it to work?
You need to half-believe it. Pick the lines that already feel partly true; those move fastest.
Morning or evening?
Morning sets the tone; evening settles it. Doing one is better than planning both.
How do I keep the habit?
Attach it to something you already do daily — coffee, the gym, the drive.
