Your Self Concept--change
your mind about who you will be, and you'll automatically attract a
whole new quality of life.
The whole pattern of your life,
realize it or not, is one of self discovery. You’ve been traveling the
yellow brick road of self discovery all you life and are still on it. Like
Dorothy, in the Wizard of Oz story, we all look for the way home. But since
we don’t know where home is, we create a warm, safe and comfortable
place—identity in which to hang out and call it home. A very large part of
that safe, comfortable space is our self concept.
Over the years, you’ve created
your self concept by choosing who you will be relative to everyone and
everything else in your life. When you stop to think about it, you’ve even
created a relationship—chosen who you will be relative to vanilla ice cream.
You either like it or you don’t, and you prefer vanilla ice cream over
chocolate, or vice versa.
The ice cream example may seem a
bit silly, but it is one of the ways you’ve chosen to identify yourself. And
I think, once you see that, you’ll realize that changing your self concept
is as simple as changing your mind about what belongs in your life and what
doesn’t.
The point I’m intending to make is that your reality and your self concept are created by using your “I
AM” power to choose who you will be relative to everyone and everything else
in your life. What you may not have realized is that, in your power to speak
the words “I am” followed by your chosen BEING statement you have the power
to create any reality you can dream up.
Once you’ve accepted and
internalized the reality of BEING an individualization of God, you’ll
realize that your “I am” statement has the power of the Universe behind it.
The most interesting thing about being that powerful is in how you’ve used
that power so far. If you’re average, you’ve used it with the intention of
creating safety, security and comfort, when what you really want in life can
be found only on the other side of safe.
What you really want from life
will be found only outside the cage of limitations you’ve built for yourself
with your awesome “I am” powers. I hope you can see from this that you can’t
really hang out in your box, playing it safe, and at the same time, be
traveling the yellow brick road of self discovery. It’s one or the other,
your choice!
Anyway, real security is peace in
your heart, and that comes only from letting go, not from hanging on. You
can’t find peace while fearing what’s outside that, playing-it-safe box.
I want you to see that your self
concept is a large part of your play-it-safe box and you’ll find your way
out of that box only when you’ve realized that you have the power to create
a bigger and better box by simply changing your mind about who you will be.
This is the process you’ll want to use for changing your self concept.
And on that day when you’ve found
your “I am” power and used it to manifest the reality of your dreams, you
will come to realize that you are finally on your true path, the yellow
brick road of self discovery and your journey home.
So, in that light, let’s look
again at your self concept, think about how you created it, and then you can
decide for yourself if you’re ready to create that dream reality with a new
BEING choice. The process is really simple; If you can imagine your life as
it would be, living in that dream reality and feel as you would if you were
already living it, you’ve already created it and it will manifest if you’ve
actually chosen to BE the one in that vision.
Believe me! Manifesting out of
the box results is nothing more complicated than making a new BEING
commitment. If you are truly ready to manifest a quality of life change come
