Self Image for SUCCESS

MATT FURY Says
"Often the difference between a successful man and a failure is not one's better abilities or ideas, but the courage that one has to bet on his ideas, to take a calculated risk and to act. " "Mental pictures offer us an opportunity to "practice new traits and attitudes, which otherwise we could not do. This is possible because again - your nervous system cannot tell the difference between an actual experience and one that is vividly imagined. "
"If You can remember, worry, or tie your shoe, you can succeed. " This Creative Mechanism within you is impersonal. It will work automatically and impersonally to achieve goals of success and happiness, or unhappiness and failure, depending upon the goals which you yourself set for it. Present it with "success goals" and it functions as a "Success Mechanism." Present it with negative goals, and it operates just as impersonally, and just as faithfully as a "Failure Mechanism."
"Numerous experiments have shown that once the concept of self is changed, other things consistent with the new concept of self, are accomplished easily and without strain." The "self image" is the key to human personality and human behavior Change the self image and you change the personality and the behavior. The "self image" sets the boundaries of individual accomplishment. It defines what you can and cannot do. Expand the self image and you expand the "area" of the "possible."
If a person wants to improve himself, he said, "Let him summon those finer feelings of benevolence and usefulness, which are called up only now and then. Let him make this a regular exercise like swinging dumbbells. Let him gradually increase the time devoted to these psychical gymnastics, and at the end of a month he will find the change in himself surprising. The alteration will be apparent in his actions and thoughts. Morally speaking, the man will be a great improvement of his former self."
"Our self-image and our habits tend to go together. Change one and you will automatically change the other."
