"A strong positive Self-Image is the best possible preparation for success in life ."

I find it is the simplest truths that we overlook and this one is easily done. Especially in are fast paced world where we feel swept up of our feet all the time whether doing that homework project that is due in the next day or are working coming in tired.
Yet how many of us takes the time to look into the mirror and realise our true potential. This question can be answered in many ways but the majority I bet don’t do this. Although I am not perfect I still have many days and moments along my journey where I forget to look after myself to the length I should.
Prioritising something like a project or work over my own well-being. Well I have the argument to say that you can and in may cases have to make sacrifices to move forward, I do not believe in self-sacrificing your time and effort if your endeavours aren’t going to give you a long-term effort or reward.
How you see yourself is the most important thing of all when it comes to self-image and not letting other opinions cloud your identity.
For example, your job does not necessarily correlate to your identity, but merely your past decisions for accepting this job in the first place.
The challenge may be reclaiming your true self-image or trying too hard to preserve an old one; like a caterpillar at a certain stage in its life it renews itself by cocooning to be reborn again, and in many aspects of our life we must do the same to grow and develop. A Universal truth is that we are all unique and beautiful in our own way the challenge is in this life is to see it. 🙂
