The Image You Hold Of Yourself Controls What You Attempt | Earl Nightingale

Someone offers you a door, and before they finish the sentence you hear yourself say, 'Oh, I'm not really the type.' Where did that sentence come from?

This 1-hour Earl Nightingale-inspired commentary explains how the image you hold of yourself quietly controls what you attempt, and how to widen it with evidence instead of empty affirmations. Through invented examples of an accountant who declined a presentation, a mother who thought she was not a numbers person, a welder who never applied to lead a crew, a nurse who wanted to teach, and a young man introduced by a single word, you will learn the thermostat model of self-image, three kinds of ceiling, an attempt ledger, a ladder of small stretches, and a fourteen-day method. Closes with a calm rehearsal and honest cautions. Topics: attitude, self-image, confidence, goals, personal responsibility, worthy ideal, personal growth, disciplined thought.
