It is always good and beneficial to repeat a positive affirmation at least three times per day, but many people still do not understand what's the meaning of positive affirmation. Affirmation mainly refers to first and foremost something that must be spoken with strength, confidence and determination. Affirmation can be positive, or negative.
Maria Duval gives some examples of positive affirmations:
Every day and in every way, I am becoming more and more positive.
Whatever happens today, I will face it with courage and I will expect a positive outcome.
I respect the person I am. I am capable of creating and resolving problems. I excel.
These are, of course, some positive affirmations.
Maria Duval says negative programming works just as well. But you wouldn't want to be negative, would you? Who would want to seek failure or accumulate problems?
You can certainly use the above examples from Maria Duval as your personal affirmation. However, it is better you can customise your own to your own situation and what you want out of life. It is better to select affirmations about positive thinking, self esteem and success. As you can see, affirmations are like programming your mental computer to change a particular habit you have so as to self improve your life.
Everytime you use a positive affirmation, repeat it at least 3 times a day continuously for 1 week. Do it relaxedly but seriously. As time goes by, you find that your mind has been programmed. From now on, your thoughts will be more positive, and life somehow transformed.
Maria Duval says positive affirmation process works because of a very basic Universal Law, which is "Energy Follows Thoughts", meaning, positive energy will flow in the direction of your attention.

Maria Duval - How to markedly improve your happiness, finances and luck
The amazing power of self-conditioning
Researchers have shown that we love in an energy aura that fills through the space. This is the source of all life and can be found within every atom - the building block - of the matter. The name given by the scientists to this energy is not important. What matters is that it works as an intelligence field. This is the nearest thing we have to a conception of the Creator. It is this intelligence that makes the world turn, and it is also this intelligence that lies behind our own functioning, us, the human race.
Maria Duval says this intelligence bonds with our personal intelligence to give us our instinct, ideas, intuition and inspirations. Those of us who are in greater harmony, with a universal vision, attract this intelligence field more strongly than those whose thought is more limited. This could imply that those who dare to think and dream find it easier to achieve happiness in life. Why, asks Maria Duval.
This is because they realise that the source of life does not lie in the material world we live in, but it is instead a gift bestowed by the Creator - a spiritual source. You can bring yourself to be in harmony with this intelligence field to benefit from it, is through "self conditioning", which us about changing from negative to positive attitude. To do this, relax your body and mind, AND, suggest t yourself and condition yourself to be positive and creative in both in your attitude and mood and in your behaviour.
Read the following worlds, then close your eyes and repeat them:
"Every day, in every way, I am becoming more and more POSITIVE."
Now breath in deeply and close your eyes and repeat it three times. You have just completed an important phase in re-programming your mind to be positive.
Maria Duval adds that it is an proven fact that your thoughts help to create the reality. Another fact: your thought comes from a well programmed computer, which is synonymously to the functioning of our complex brain. When you relax your body and mind, you switch on the computer that is your brain, and when you instruct it, you are programming your "computer". To completely master this seemingly normal process, you need to relax even more and give it even more specific messages.
Finally, Maria Duval states both right and left brains need to work harmoniously that when you relax and allow your mind to drift. This is when your "computer" is now activated.
