    Positive Affirmations

    Wait, what even is a positive affirmation?

    Basically they’re positive phrases that you repeat to yourself to describe how you want to be. They don’t necessarily have to be true right now, but the point is that through repetition, they will sink into your subconscious mind and you really will start to believe them! Then, they’ll actually become your reality!

    If you’ve never heard of positive affirmations before, this probably doesn’t make sense to you and/or it doesn’t seem legit. But just trust me on this. Especially if you’re already not feeling good enough, or wanting more out of life, or hating your financial position, etc. I mean, if you’re already there then you have nothing to lose, right?

    You might think this is silly but I can assure you.. if you let it, this exercise and practice will change your life. Over time, your affirmations will overwrite any limiting or negative beliefs you may have about yourself and replace them with positive thoughts and beliefs which instill confidence, belief, positivity, ambition and much more.

    PS – Don’t mind the 2 broken vanity mirror lights or my silly face (haha!!)

    Okay, let’s get started

    Step 1: Make a list of at least 10 positive affirmations and keep them by your bed. Read them every night before you go to bed and read them every morning when you wake up.

    Step 2: Copy your affirmations onto sticky notes and keep them in common areas that you will see all throughout the day. (Bathroom mirror, bedroom door, in your car, on your desk, in the kitchen, at work, etc.)

    Step 3: Recite your positive affirmations all throughout the day and read them every time you see them.

    But how though?

    There are a lot of different ways you can go about coming up with your positive affirmations.

    An easy start is to search for “positive affirmations” on Pinterest or Google.

    Mine are a combination of things I’ve searched for on Pinterest, some are negative thoughts that I used to have that I flipped into positive affirmations and some came from notes that I took during seminars and other people’s “rags to riches” success stories.

    About Bryiana

    Hi! I’m Bryiana Dyrdek – wife, mom, boss, best friend, mentor, model, wine lover, undiscovered Disney princess, President of Iconic Beauty and simultaneously the most BASIC and extra person you’ll probably ever come across.

    Even though I’m a mega introvert, I’ll take any excuse (or make up my own) to throw a party. I believe in raising the bar, changing lives and breaking the mold because I know I can.. I’ve done it before.

    I was once a princess who played dress up in my grandmother’s best dresses and favorite pearls, then became the little girl who glanced through magazines thinking to myself “that’s going to be me someday!” I plastered my walls with Iconic images of what I knew I was destined to become. I practiced my runway walk up and down the hallway with no shame in my game and every time I was told to smile for the camera at a family function, it instantly became a full-blown photoshoot.

    I didn’t know it then, but being an Ultimate (and obsessive) Dreamer at such a young age meant that I was manifesting who I have grown into. Now I’m a tenacious woman who will stop at nothing until all of my dreams come true.

    Oh! And I’m a sucker for a good underdog story. Maybe because I’m one too? But that’s a story for another time.

    I guess what I’m trying to say is, I’m on a journey to becoming the absolute best version of myself and I’m happy you’re along for the ride.

    But be careful.. I have a tendency to make the people around me believe that they are capable of making impossible things possible too. So, don’t keep reading if you’re completely uninterested in unleashing your inner Iconic Beauty. But if that piques your interest, pour yourself a glass of wine and enjoy the ride (from the passenger’s side because I do not condone drinking and driving)!

    The Real Me

    • Comments Off on The Real Me
    • by

    Occupation: President of Iconic Beauty

    Current City: Beverly Hills, CA

    Hobbies: Dating my husband, spending time with our kids, throwing little parties and drinking wine

    Strange hobby: Feeding my friends… and stalking strangers on social media lol.

    Three Words That Describe Me: Passionate, ambitious and benevolent

    Three Fun Facts:

    1. I’m a MEGA introvert.
    2. I met my husband on Twitter.
    3. In April of 2013, I quit all 3 of my jobs, packed up anything/everything that fit in my car and moved to LA. I didn’t know where I was going to live or work or anything. I had nothing figured out, all I knew was I had a dream bigger than the town I was living in and I needed more. I also knew that I have what it takes to figure it out. And guess what… I did.

    What was your first “I made it” moment?

    I’m blessed to have had a series of “I made it” moments and every single one always out does the previous. The very first “I made it” moment that I had in life was hearing that I was officially in remission from Severe Aplastic Anemia.

    What do you in your free time?

    What free time? lol. I’m a wife, a mom, a boss, a best friend and a mentor. I don’t have free time because I’m constantly filling all of my time with things that fuel me and give me energy.

    What is your favorite thing about yourself?

    My husband asked me that a couple years ago and back then, I couldn’t think of anything. I knew he was waiting for an answer though, so I told him that I’m a really good friend. (Which is true. So it was a good enough answer.) But after I thought about it more, I needed to learn how to love myself. So I’ve been working on it and now I can confidently say that I like a lot of things about myself, but my passion and compassion for life, for my dreams and for others is my favorite thing about myself. That magical combination makes me a really good friend, wife, mother and boss. I think that’s something to be proud of.

    What are you really good at?

    I’m really good at being a wife and a mom. I’m also fantastic at dreaming and planning.

    What are some things you need to practice more?

    Patience.

    What are some things you’d rather avoid?
    ANY form of negativity!

    What is something new you’d like to learn?

    Photography.

    What makes you, you?

    Everything about me makes me, me. I’m so different from anyone else I know. From being an Ultimate Dreamer and the original Iconic Beauty, to what my family has always referred to as a “Miracle Girl” – when I decide that I’m going to make something happen, I make it happen- no doubts and no complaining. I love hard and dream big. I’m passionate and compassionate. I love watching and helping others succeed. I’m a really good friend and an even better wife and mom. I don’t believe in “impossible” and I don’t believe in competition- I only strive to be better than I ever have been.

    Who/what inspires you? 

    Stories of other people making “impossible” things possible. My husband, our children, and the life we are building together also really, really inspires me.

    What makes you laugh/cry?

    I’m very emotional and sensitive. I laugh until I cry, and I cry until I finally laugh and sometimes it’s for no reason, and sometimes it’s because everything hits me all at once. Laughing and crying make me human; I do both often and I’m not sorry or ashamed.

    What keeps you going when you feel like giving up?

    Remember how far I’ve come and how much good is still to come if I just push a little harder, try a little harder and pray a little harder.

    If I were a recipe, I would be made up of…

    3 cups of sugar, spice and everything nice

    2 cups of love and benevolence

    1 cup of wishes and dreams

    3 tsp make believe and play pretend

    1 cup of imagination

    3 cups of strength, bravery, and intelligence

    3 cups of determination and passion

    and a pinch of naiveté

    What is your Top Priority? 

    My husband/our marriage, our children, myself and my work.
