(1) I’m lovable and capable;
I’m lovable and capable!
REFRAIN To be the best me that I can be, I affirm myself each day!
(2) I believe in myself, and I am special:
I believe in myself, and I am special! REFRAIN
(3) I stay true to who I am;
I stay true to who I am! REFRAIN
(4) I learn from my mistakes;
I learn from my mistakes! REFRAIN
(5) I know that I am loved;
I know that I am loved! REFRAIN
(6) I can make wise decisions;
I can make wise decisions! REFRAIN
(7) I choose my friends wisely;
I choose my friends wisely! REFRAIN
(8) I handle problems calmly;
I handle problems calmly! REFRAIN
(9) I like myself and I'm unique;
I like myself and I'm unique! REFRAIN
(10) I get high on life and live drug-free;
I get high on life and live drug-free! REFRAIN
SPOKEN: "For the next 4 verses, choose your favorite affirmations, or make up your own positive messages to yourself!"
THEN REPEAT FIRST VERSE AND REFRAIN.
(1) I’m lovable and capable;
I’m lovable and capable!
REFRAIN To be the best me that I can be, I affirm myself each day!
