Short excerpt from a YouTube video by Vishen Lakhiani titled "Your self-talk matters. Here's why" (uploaded April 12, 2022). In this excerpt two speakers emphasize self-acceptance (loving previously rejected parts of self) as a path from misery to happiness, and the power of deliberate declarations—telling your mind what you want (e.g., "I want perfect health")—to shape wellbeing.

I think the more you accept and love and give kindness to the parts of yourself that you normally reject, the more they start to change into a feeling of transformation from misery to happiness.
So you always have a choice. Your mind talks to your body all the time. That's its job. And your job is to tell your mind what you want. I want perfect health. I don't do illness. I do wellness. Everything I do is perfect. So you have to realize what you are declaring. Realize that you will pay a price of who it is you truly are.
