Staying consistent with your self-image…
How do you picture yourself???
Just an ordinary person finding his way in this world… a really smart man that can take on any challenge… a gentleman that is respected… a cool or funny guy that people love… a leader or a preacher who is taken seriously… a hero that people go crazy about… Mr. Nice guy… the talented creative… the nerd… the genius… All or several of the above and then some???
I am sure I missed a majority of the impressions that one can have of oneself… but the point is…
How sure are you of who you really are? And how well does that line up with who you really want to be??
It is extremely important that these two line up….
What is more important is that your behavior, your demeanor, your work ethic, your value system, your words, your actions and your deeds be consistent with that self image that you have…. for unless you line these up, you are more than likely leaving the alignment of who you are and who you want to be to chance… And that is an expensive gamble!!!
It helps to close your eyes each morning to reflect on this very important question… “Is my person consistent with my being”….
It is important to take a moment before saying or doing or even thinking anything… to ponder upon… “Is what I about to do consistent with who I want to be”….
When that consistency is attained… then will your self-image be truly preserved!!!
