Simple Steps To Improve Your Self-Image

Your self-image determines the level of success you experience in life, in much the same way as a thermostat controls the temperature in your house. It may vary from time to time but the thermostat will bring the temperature back to the level you have set.  

So if you want more success – you must improve your self-image.  

Here are 4 simple steps you can start right now that will have a dramatic effect in just a few weeks. 

1. Call to mind a person that you admire and respect. someone who clearly has a very positive self-image. It can be somebody you know personally, someone famous, or even a fictional character. 
2. Think about the qualities they exhibit that you admire. and write out a description of them in the present tense. 
3. Take that description, close your eyes and relax. Begin to imagine yourself as that person, imagine acting as if you literally have become that person. Embrace that self-image and begin to imprint it on your subconscious mind. 
4. Identify just one action step you can take immediately to start integrating the qualities of this person into your life. What can you do to embrace those qualities and this person’s positive self-image; think of how they would deal with situations; how they would carry themselves; how they would talk to people.  

In short, immerse yourself in the role, as a method actor like Marlon Brando or Daniel Day-Lewis would do.  

You will be surprised how quickly you and other people will start to notice a positive change.
