February 2025
The “IndieWeb Carnival” prompt for this month is “Affirmations”.
What is an affirmation?
“Affirmations” are sayings or slogans I say to myself which represent ideas or feelings I want to reinforce in myself.
Examples:
“I listen to my inner voice and let it guide me in my life.”
“I am gentle with myself.”
You are invited to create a post on affirmations on your own website. Text or multimedia. Prose or poetry. Factual or fictional. Lengthy or brief.
NOTE: “Affirmations” may mean something different to you. That’s cool, write whatever the provocation of “affirmations” brings out of you.

About IndieWeb Carnival
Each month, the carnival has a different host. At the beginning of the month, the host comes up with the topic, and posts it both on their website and here. Then, other people post their submissions and alert the host about them. At the end of the month, the host collects all the received submissions and posts an overview of it. (source)

Affirmations are short, repeatable statements to help you think more positively about your life and purpose in this world. I don’t practice them in this sense, however I do have a number of rituals which help me understand my structure, purpose and identity since stopping work in 2019, aged 51. This was probably the single […]

I don’t really do affirmations, in the way I’ve seen them online or hanging on people’s walls. A calendar or a bot telling me to repeat that “I’m strong and capable” or whatever — that just feels insincere to me; and not helpful at all. It feels empty. Affirmations have to come from me. If I do “affirmations” then they come in the form of arguing with myself.
