8 Empowering Affirmations for Writers to Combat Fear and Self-Doubt

When it comes to getting into a creative flow, the mental game is half the battle – especially if you’re someone who struggles with self-doubt, fear, and perfectionism.

Part of the problem is negative thought patterns that are activated as soon as you start a creative project, such as writing a book. One of the best (and simplest) ways to start re-programming those patterns is to flip the script with empowering affirmations that directly counteract any critical inner dialogue that pops up.

Try these eight affirmations for writers and creatives you can incorporate into your creative ritual to help you get into a high-vibe mindset before a writing session. They’ll help you stop procrastinating on writing, enjoy your writing sessions more, and actually finish writing your book.
