Affirmations to Embrace Imperfection

To make these positive statements a part of your life, you should look for a quiet and cozy place where you can think about how you act and feel about trying to be perfect all the time. You can say these positive statements to yourself while you’re doing things to relax, like taking deep breaths or meditating.

Imagine you’re doing your tasks calmly and being kind to yourself; this will make the statements even more powerful. Saying them over and over can change the way you think, moving from trying to be perfect to growing, being strong, and being kind to yourself.
