Self-Image is the Key

Self-Image is the Key

“The ‘self-image’ is the key to human personality and human

behavior. Change the self image and you change the

personality and the behavior.”

Maxwell Maltz 1899 - 1975, American Cosmetic Surgeon

 and Author of Psycho Cybernetics

As I see it . . . . . . .

Self-image is the key

Self-image is the key to your personality and your behavior.

Your self-image will be reflected in the way you treat people . . . . and will become a reflection of your relationships . . . . and how people treat you.

Your self-image is deeply rooted in your thinking and will result in being a positive thinker . . . . or mired in negative thinking mindset.

Self-image is the key . . . . to your attitude. With a positive self-image your attitude will be a positive and you will see the opportunities and the possibilities in your life.

With a positive self-image you will put yourself into the position to make the most of your resources and to maximize your talent and potential.

Self-image is the key . . . . and that key unlocks your future.

Character Matters

Motivational Power Quote

Character Matters

“Character matters; leadership descends from character.”

Rush Limbaugh, Author, Radio Talk Show Host

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

Character matters

John F. Kennedy, Ronald Regan, Steve Jobs, and Bill Gates have character.

Having character is not about being liked . . . . character is about doing the right thing because it’s the right thing to do. Character is also about being consistent in your actions . . . . not in being popular.

People with character lead from the front . . . . and will make the tough decisions because they have to be made and their decision making is consistent . . . . and will not change with the direction of the wind.

Great leaders have it and it comes to the surface through their behavior. There are also leaders who try to fake it . . . . and it only a matter of time until they are found out for who they really are.

A person of character stands out in every walk of life or business endeavor. They have the ability to turn a bad situation into a success and to sustain a personal relationship or a business.

Character matters . . . . let it be your calling card.

Life is a Series of Patterns

Motivational Power Quote

Life is a Series of Patterns

“Your self-image is your pattern!

Every thought has an activity visualized.

Every activity belongs to a pattern you identify with

your patterns of thoughts.

Your patterns leads your life.”

J.G. Gallimore, author

As I see it . . . . . . .

Life is a series of patterns

Our patterns become our habits. Most of the things that we do everyday are formed in our subconscious mind and are repetitively done without giving them much thought.

In most cases we never think about our patterns and habits unless something triggers us to evaluate a behavior or a result that products a less then desirable results.

Our patterns can be relationship and career builders or they become obstacles to our success.

Look at your patterns that are contributing to your success and built off of them to keep you moving in the right direction.

Evaluate the patterns that are slowing your forward progress or holding you back. The moment that you can identify those patterns you have taken the first step to eliminating then.

The best way to eliminate an unproductive pattern is to replace that pattern with a new proactive pattern. Replacing the pattern will take about 30 days of effort to see a change in the pattern.

Life is a series of patterns some good and some not so good, replace the unproductive patterns and your days will become more productive.

Our Character Is a Result of Our Habits

Motivational Power Quote

Our Character Is a Result of Our Habits

“Our character is basically a composite of our habits.

because they are consistent, often unconscious patterns,

they constantly, daily, express our character.”

Stephen R. Covey, author

As I see it. . . . . . . .


Our character is a result of our habits


Whatever we consistently do, will become a habit and our habits become the foundation of our character.


Our character is formed in our habits and we demonstrate our character through our daily actions.


To form a strong character we have to develop the habits of the type people that we want to be like. Our character becomes ingrained into our personally and becomes a way of life. We will routinely demonstrate our character in behavior without a conscious thought because they have been ingrained into our sub-conscious mind.


A person lives their character as part of their moral fiber and their character becomes their calling card. A person can’t fake character, a person will either have it or they won’t.


Our character is a result of our habits and habits will be formed by our choices.

Motivational Power Quote

Our Emotions

“Our emotions are powerful motivators,

and more than almost anything else

in our lives they will drive our behavior.

Sometimes our greatest challenge

is to get inside our own heads

to understand what makes us tick.

Why do we feel and behave the way we do.”

Mac Anderson, founder of the Simple Truth & Successories

As I see it. . . . . . . .


Our emotions


Our emotions are embedded in our thoughts and will determine our behavior and our course of action. Emotions are a sense or feeling drives us in our decision making.


Once we understand what makes us act the way we do, we start to understand the forces of our emotions.


If we can control our emotions we can control our destiny.
