Success Reprogram Getting it Right I spoke to you last time of the following, Addictive Mind 2 “Your mind is like a small child growing up, learning how to protect feed and teach themselves throughout their young life. The younger you are at learning things the more likely it would be to entrench the teachings they have received. A child looks up to older people to be trained to relate to each other”.

Dis-Empowering Beliefs and Self Image Recently I have come to discover that a lot of the things I didn’t think I could accomplish in my life, were purely due to my belief system.  When you believe that you cannot achieve something, it really is only a thought, and not the truth.  These thoughts are dis-empowering beliefs, and they are attached to your self image. When you become aware that that is all they are, then you are on your... 

I believe developing your Self Esteem is an absolute crucial part of becoming successful in your own minds eye. It is something I have learned to develop over a consistent period of time and attribute Reprogramming the Mind for Success as a main contributor for recent successes.

Changing Our Self Image Where it all started for me was discovering the close correlation with the thoughts that we allow into our mind and our self image. Our self image is controlled by our conscious mind which... 

Self-Image Values Beliefs Self-Image A friend of mine posted a question online the other day What is your self-image. It made me think for a moment, but it didn’t take long for me to work out what it is. Self-image is one thing that most people don’t bother to think about. Most people think that who they are now are just a product of environmental influences and how you were brought up. To some extent it is true, however, not... 

Self Improvement I have been on a journey of self improvement of the mind since the end of my first marriage.  I truly wanted to know and understand the role that I played and why my values and beliefs were so different from my wife at the time. There is a lot that goes into getting relationships right but that was not my focus as it was to understand me better.  My thinking was that if I couldn’t get my understanding of self right how...
