What is an affirmation?

• An affirmation is something encouraging that we can tell ourselves (and others). 
• The title of the NOLA Reader book, I Am Every Good Thing, is an example of an affirmation. There are many other affirmations throughout the book, such as “I am a leader,” and “I’m a difference maker."
• Think about who you are. What makes you you? What do you notice about yourself that makes you feel great?
