How to Build Your Self Image

hello there and welcome I am going to explain an idea that every child should learn before they even go to school and yet most people go right through their life and never really understand it Dr Maxwell maltz around 1960 said it was the greatest psychological discovery of his generation it's on self-image you see you and I have an image of ourselves it's how we see yourself I know there's a reflection come back from the mirror I can see me that's a reflection of my physical being but that's not how I see me I see me

in my mind and it's based on information that I have on me now some people have a lot of false information so they've got a very false self-image around 1960 Dr Maxwell MZ wrote a book called psycho cybernetics cybernetics was a new idea cybernetics was something that was discovered around the second world war by a physicist and a and a mathematician Wier and rosenbluth they didn't even have a name for it and it was used for uh heat seeking missiles and they pointed out that cybernetics is a science of control and communication in the animal

and in some machines and what it does it measures deviation from a set goal sends information into a coordinating mechanism that'll correct the output and keep whatever it is moving towards the goal well do you know you have a cybernetic mechanism locked up in you now that may what I've just said may not make any sense to you at all but before you finish watching this video it's going to make a lot of sense now if you've heard me speaking at any any event or in any video or audio you've heard me talking about paradigms

paradigms are are nothing but a multitude of it ideas a multitude of habits that are fixed in the treasury of our subconscious paradigms are partly genetic and partly environmental in other words it's built the ideas are built right into the genes at birth that's why we look so much like our relatives so when we tie all these together it makes a very interesting story and I'm going to ask you to sit back take notes if you want but really pay attention if you have kids in school this is critical if you're in sales your sales

will Skyrocket relationships just anything that you're going to do is dependent on how you see you so let's think about it cybernetics and paradigms very very interesting subject cybernetics and paradigms are both control systems that operate essentially on the same principle both maintain a definite course of action and will not deviate from the course that has been established you must alter the Paradigm to achieve the result that you desire now think about that for a moment you'll see people stuck at a certain level go ask any sales manager to give you the names of their

salespeople and they can tell you what those salespeople are going to do next month and next year why because they're programmed they just come in about the same maybe up and down a little but they come in about the same how about athletes every coach will tell you exactly how they're going to play there's patterns they're called habitual patterns well that's a paradigm now this is a beautiful concept so let's understand it cybernetics and paradigms all right there's a thermostat now a thermostat in your home is a cybernetic instrument now I live in Toronto so

a good part of the year it gets pretty cold there um other parts of the year it gets pretty warm but in the winter you would have your thermostat set to control the room temperature at around 70 Dees now you could be sitting there reading a book or something and all of a sudden you feel a draft around your feet and and you're starting to feel a little cool and you think what's going on so you go and look at the thermometer and you notice that the temperature is not 70 it's dropped to 65 degre

you start to investigate you think what's wrong and you'll notice the front front doors open now it used to be when I was a little boy you'd go and check on the furnace because maybe the furnace had gone out and you'd have to shake all the ashes down and build another fire and get it going again not today today we've got cybernetic mechanisms hooked up to our heating system you see the thermostat measures the deviation from the set goal what was the set goal the set goal 70 but the temperature is at 65 things have

changed the thermostats sends a message to the furnace and automatically the fire is turned on the fans turned on and the temperature starts to rise and it gets up to 66 67 68 69 and it'll take it right back until it's back on course at 70 degrees and then the fire and the fan are turned off now think of that and it all happens automatically that's a cybernetic mechanism interesting isn't it do you know you've got a cybernetic mechanism in you let's look at it another way let's look up the sky here's a big plane

now the automatic pilot on a commercial plane is a cybernetic instrument that's exactly what it is and you see a flight pattern is programmed into the plane's computer system when the plane goes off course the cybernetic system measures the deviation from the C goal and it corrects the flight pattern the plane is brought back on course it's correct correct correct correct correct do you know a rocket going to the Moon is of course 97% of the time let's take a look at it from a different perspective there's a plane leaving Chicago and it's flying to

Paris now when the plane leaves the vicinity is just getting off the ground you see the wheels are sh down it's just getting up there the automatic pilot is flipped on the pilot could come back and have dinner with you now they don't leave the cockpit but they're not necessarily doing it it's all done automatically and you see when that plane's flying along it get hit by some turbulence gets knocked off course you know what happens the cybernetic mechanism Cuts in it's activated and it puts the plane back on course again it's all happens automatically

pilot doesn't even have to do anything but ultimately although it goes off course and gets knocked back on course it ends up in Paris now think about that for a moment here's you and you have locked into your subconscious mind a self-image and that self-image operates like a cybernetic mechanism okay your self-image is a cybernetic instrument now let's suppose your self-image is that you are overweight no you don't talk about it you don't want anybody else to talk about it but inside you feel you're overweight and you just get to a point you can't handle

anymore so you make a decision I'm going to go on a diet and you instantly move into action now what happens well you start to lose weight why you're starving yourself you don't e anything white you know and on and on we go no more chocolate why because they make you fat that's not what makes you fat it's the image that makes you fat if you had a skinny image you could eat all the chocolate in the world you just pass off what's not needed for the manifestation of the image through your eliminative system eliminative

system is one of the systems in your body now here's the point when a person who is overweight goes on a diet without changing or altering the self-image any weight loss is temporary that's why people gain and lose tons in a lifetime say they lose it you're automatically programmed to find whatever you lose the self-image being a cybernetic instrument measures the deviation from the said goal it immediately corrects the course the weight that was lost will be found you see you look at the scales you don't relate that's not really me that's not really me

so what happens the weight's put back on again isn't that interesting I know if you have a weight problem you're sin I never knew that well now you do know it but you see if you're going to change the weight you got to change the Paradigm that's what our company's all about we help people change paradigms we help them live in the body they want to live in I'm so happy and grateful now that I'm at my perfect weight I'm looking good I'm feeling great you can do that you can live the way you want

to live your God's highest form of creation where's another area that we could use well you can use it in any area let's take a u a child in school now this is all in Psycho cybernetics Dr Maxwell Mal's book and and here's something else what's the point of making heroic BS of amendment if the same old law rakers can to keep them I am going to take the weight off but you don't change the law breaker the Paradigm Emerson was right of what use to make heroic B of amendment if the same old law

breaker is going to keep them let's look at a student in school all right now there's the subconscious mind okay and the student the image child has an image you see the child's self-image is a cybernetic instrument that's exactly what it is and the child has an image of poor grades this is biographical by the way because that's the image I used to have and I got them sure did get them and you see when a person is receiving four grades in school it's it's an expression of a self-image it's the self-image they hold that

they're expressing the person believes they are not very bright they of course receive a report card that reflects the poor image that they've got and they take the report card home and there's trouble in River City I mean I lived with this all the time I was in school the child's grounded they're made to study now what the parent doesn't know and what the child doesn't know is really rather sad see the child cram cram cram and the marks go up but what the parent and the child do not understand the parent on is unaware

that the real problem has the child they have them give up recreational activities they make them study the grades improve but the Improvement is temporary why the child has never changed the self-image parent doesn't even understand self-image in most cases and certainly the child doesn't and so what happens well they got a good test when the report card comes out nothing's changed now why would people live that way they live that way because they don't know any different and that is rather sad see we should learn to live the way we really want to live

we've got to understand this concept of self-image of cybernetics of paradigms you know um Oscar wild said something really beautiful one time he said selfishness is not living as one wishes to live selfishness is asking others to live as one wishes to live you've got to develop the courage courage you've got to develop the awareness the wisdom to live the way you really want to live life is very short and it's over very fast and you can have do or be anything you want you're God's highest form of creation if you really want to check

in to programs that will change the course of your life forever understand this myself and my associates in our company spend all all their time studying this I have personally been studying it for over 50 years we have some of the best programs in the world some of them run for a week some run for a year some run for an hour every day but I'll tell you this they'll have you running in the direction that you want to go for the rest of your life leave us your information let us talk to you and

absolutely refuse to spend another day living the way someone else wants you to live so they're going to be happy with you see most people live the way they think other people think they should live at the very best that's got to be a bad trip this is your life make it a phenomenal experience this Bob Proctor thank you check us out at Proctor Gallagher institute.com for tips tools and resources
