In this short self‑help segment, Paridhi Dhingra explains why many people find affirmations ineffective. She argues that the core mistake is using affirmations as a tool to generate positive feelings, rather than speaking them after already feeling positive. According to Dhingra, the correct process is to first cultivate a genuine sense of happiness or positivity, then recite the affirmation, which then gains power and impact in the listener’s life. The advice is presented as a practical fix for those whose affirmations feel hollow or ineffective.

Here's why affirmations are working for everybody but not for you. The reason is you're using your affirmations to feel something. So a lot of people tell me, I'm speaking my affirmations, but I'm not feeling positive. That's the reason it's not working for you. You need to first feel positive, then say your affirmations. The difference is don't use your affirmations to feel happy. First create happiness, then say your affirmations, and then check how your affirmations become powerful in your life.
