Self Image = Results

Ruth — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 10:45:37 +0000

Your self image is determining your results. Now maybe you’ve never seen your identity as directly linked to the results you’ve achieved or will go on to achieve. In essence we can’t outperform our sense of self. Well you can but only for a short while and then, like an elastic band, it snaps back to where it knows.

You’ve no doubt heard people say “act as if”, or ” you have to be it before you can receive it”. We see this commonly in the workplace when people are doing a role before they get the promotion.

Self esteem, self confidence, results, success, resilience, adaptability are all tied up to self image / identity.

Any time you say “i am…” you’re making a statement about your identity.

Now most of us talk a lot but don’t really pay 100% attention to what we’re saying. Your identity is unconsciously running you.

This autumn you can change all that. You could decide you’re going to understand the power of self image and identity, and work on making sure yours is working for you, not against you. Join me on my 8 week study group, we’re doing this by phone so it’s really easy to join in. You can get the full details here.
