81 Positive Affirmations For Men

Over the years, you’ve come to appreciate the good you see in yourself.

But some days it’s harder to see the beauty through the fog of disappointment and self-doubt. 

That’s where positive affirmations for adults come in. 

Affirmations are positive statements you tell yourself every day to remind you of how far you’ve come, what you value most, and what you’re capable of achieving.

They can also help you create a mindset for future goals and success.

This post focuses on positive affirmations for men.

Because grown men also can forget that, being human, they’re just as likely to lose sight of what’s important. 

Give the world a chance, and it will beat you down with messages contrary to the ones on this list. 

Those negative messages can stick if you don't proactively work to change them.

You deserve better. And you’re not alone.
