18 SELF IMAGE MASTERY ACTION GUIDE
UNTIL YOU MAKE THE UNCONSCIOUS CONSCIOUS, IT WILL RULE YOUR LIFE AND YOU WILL CALL IT FATE
From our experiences, we begin to understand our world and we begin to understand other people and most importantly of all, we think we begin to understand ourselves. This understanding of ourselves takes the form of an inner picture or an inner image of what we believe our self to be.
Once these ideas are internalized, as far as we are concerned, they are true. And because we consider them a reflection of reality, there is no point in challenging their validity. After all, what sense does it make to pretend something is other than it is?
These beliefs then drive our behavior, our thinking, our feeling, as well as our perceptions of future experiences and past experiences. Everything that we do is consistent with these beliefs. We act like the sort of person that we believe our self to be. How can we do anything else?
People who believe they are failures, see themselves as failures, they think, feel and act like failures, and it is no surprise that their results then reflect that. Even if they experience some unexpected luck, they find some way to sabotage their own success and snatch failure from the jaws of victory.
People who see themselves as victims find plenty of opportunity every day to be wronged. If they walk around expecting to be offended, guess what they find?
Your self image is not just the foundation from which your personality emerges, but through your thoughts, feelings and actions, also your circumstances.
