Change the Way You feel about your Self.

[The American Dream]

 “The only disability in life is a bad attitude.”
 You can change the way you feel about yourself. These suggestions will help:
 1. Cast away your negative past. List your personal liabilities, past mistakes, failures, and embarrassments. Burn it. Watch it turned to ashes and say aloud, “That’s the last time I will let you get me down. I have more important things to do.” Your actions always reinforce your dominant thoughts. Learn from those past bloopers and get rid of them. Get them off your back. There are enough monkeys in this world waiting to jump on it for you.
 
2. Evaluate your attributes. List your personal assets, competencies, and achievements. A realistic résumé is a good start. Ask your friends for help. Read it aloud three times a day for three weeks, and then read it as soon as you get up each day thereafter. Your actions reinforce your dominant thoughts. If you have ever felt valuable, worthy, or good in the past, you can feel that way again. You spent many years allowing others to program you. Now it’s up to you.
 
 3. Seek out positive input. Read or listen to something motivational or inspirational everyday. Positive imagery requires positive examples. You also need other people’s experiences. Their research, techniques, and results can cut years off your learning curve and save you from painful trial and error.
 
 4. Write down specific goals. This triggers your inborn, automatic goal-seeking mechanism. Even while you sleep, your subconscious will help you overcome roadblocks, obstacles, and defeats. As you achieve your goals, the written proof supports you as a worthy, achieving person, and plants good self image seeds.
 
 5. Take responsibility for your emotional environment. It’s hard to soar like an eagle when you are surrounded by a bunch of turkeys. The law of emotional gravity is strong. You become like those with whom you associate.
 
 These beginning self-image building steps may seem simplistic, but they are based on sound research and results. They are the foundation for a strong—what I call internal—net worth.
When you believe in and support your strengths and values and accept responsibility for being a deserving, creating achiever, then and only then, will you have moved toward being a positive influence on other people.
