How To Improve Your Personal Bio Easily

Your Self-Image is basically the perception you have of yourself - your identity, abilities, worth, etc.

It is your mental blueprint that determines:

* How you feel about yourself on a daily basis
* Who you think you are and your "role" in society
* The results you expect (and receive) in life
* How you react in certain situations
* Where your "comfort zone" is (for example: the
things you would and wouldn't do)

The self-image is one of the most powerful parts of our personality, yet we pay so little attention to it
mainly because we were never taught about it in school, at work or by our parents.

Now, you may not believe me, but your self-image regulates everything you think, everything you feel,
and everything you do...everyday ...AUTOMATICALLY. It'll prove for you.

Have you ever tried to set a goal that's larger than what you are currently used to, then quietly backed
down, returned to your comfort zone and fell into your old habits without realizing it?

That's because your self-image was REGULATING the amount of success you can achieve. You backed
down because deep down inside, it didn't feel like something "you" would do.

Let me give you another example...

If I asked you to go into a room full of strangers, and go up to every single one of them and introduce
yourself with a smile on your face, would you do it?

The reality is, unless you "thought of yourself" as a naturally outgoing and likable person, you
probably wouldn't do it. The thought of it might even make "you" nervous.

You might say something like, "Oh, that's not who I am." Or "I'm not that kind of person."

But, how do you KNOW who you really are?

Most people have just accepted the self-image they were "given" instead of designing and installing
the one they truly want. (You know this is the case when you keep trying to change but the change
never sticks.)

Now, even though you can't fight against your self-image, you CAN change it.

If you want to be the kind of person who gets the things you WANT in life, you have to see yourself
AS THAT PERSON.

Think of change as something that happens from the inside out. As you believe yourself to be this new person, your behaviour will naturally follow. And this is the secret to creating LONG TERM change.

The good news is that changing your self-image isn't difficult when you follow these 2 simple steps.

First, spend some time designing who you WANT to be. Forget your past and everything you believe
about yourself and allow your mind to wander and think about all the qualities you would like to have.

How you would like to think, act and feel about things (with an open, non-judgmental attitude.) Next,
once you have a clear, inspiring idea of who you want to be, INSTALL it into your mind.

There is a little more to this step, but basically you will want to imagine yourself as this new person.
Make it real by thinking of specific situations and see, hear, and feel yourself acting as this new person.

The more you do this, the more you become this new person, naturally. Maybe you want to be more
outgoing, slimmer, happier. Or maybe you would rather be financially free.

Whatever image you wish to have, it's possible if you just set your mind thinking along the above guidelines.
