We all tend to think too little of ourselves, and so we fail to achieve more than a fraction of our true potential.
***
The self-image is the key to human personality. Change the self-image and you change the personality and the behaviour.
***
We always act in accordance with our self-image, and our feelings and behaviour are always consistent with this inner picture of ourselves. This is the blue print from which our subconscious mind works.
***
Be entirely positive. List only your good points. Write down the things that you can do. The things that you are better than others. The things you are proud of.
***
Constantly work at the idea of a new positive attitude.
***
Be sure, therefore, to picture strongly to yourself the kind of person you wish to be.
***
Mentally see yourself acting with courage and determination in the given situation. Do this repeatedly and you will soon form a habit of acting courageously.
***
Try to picture yourself as an outgoing, friendly person when others love to be with you.
***
It is the little things you do each day - the way you react to what is happening, how you develop good feeling for others, what you are constantly thinking about yourself, and how this expresses itself through you day-by-day - that gradually builds up your self-image.
