20 positive affirmations to help you have more time

I don’t have time. If only I had more time. There aren’t enough hours in a day. Three common sayings about time that we’ve probably all said and heard many times before.

If you’re one of the countless people who want more time, are you saying positive affirmations about time? Affirmations are positive sayings that help us get rid of negative beliefs and replace them with positive ones. They also reinforce positive beliefs that we already have.

“As we think, so we become”, said Buddha. There is much truth in this. If we believe we don’t have enough time, then we won’t. Believe we have enough time, and we are on our way to having all the time we need.

Is just thinking we have enough time sufficient to have enough time? Possibly, but to change time from being our enemy to being our friend, it’s better to combine positive thoughts and beliefs with positive behavior, than think positive affirmations alone.

What practical things can we combine with our affirmations to have more time? Key ways include getting more organized, dealing better with distractions, giving jobs to others and doing tasks more efficiently.

Below are my favorite positive affirmations for gaining more time in our lives. Choose the ones that suit you, think them often throughout the day every day, and observe the changes that can happen in your life. Be patient; it might take days, weeks or months to see results, but positive affirmations are worth thinking.

Many affirmations listed below are very similar to others. Some might not be appropriate for you now, but they might be later on. For example, you might find saying “Time is becoming my friend” feels comfortable now, and later “Time is my friend” suits you better.
