When you set and achieve goals to improve your self-image, to commit yourself to their attainment, and to take action to bring those goals into reality, you begin to develop a more positive self-image than you ever dreamed possible. A positive self-image, in turn, reinforces your courage and confidence. You’re then capable of undertaking even more lofty and challenging goals.

Developing a positive self-image is based on the principle that each of us is the product of what we think and what we believe about our abilities. The only practical world is the one within ourselves – the world in which we develop courage and self-confidence and a more positive self-image. It’s here that we motivate ourselves to transform goals into tangible realities.

The magnetic force of a positive self image is a leadership tool that will help you become all that you can be and also bring out the best in your team members. Your unique quality of self-confidence will generate many benefits, including the following:

• A contagious enthusiasm for life
• Genuine concern for others
• A positive personality that
people enjoy being around
• Enhanced people skills
• Clarity of purpose
• Firm commitment to worthwhile goals
• Increased productivity
• An aura of power and authority which enables you to inspire and lead others.

Developing your self-image can be the most rewarding adventure of your life. It’s the first step toward the achievement of goals that will benefit yourself, your team members, and your organization as well.
