Ut enim ad minima veniam, quis nostrum

We have three personalities within ourselves.

Our ideal self, our ought self and our actual Self

𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 – is who we aspire to be.

𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 – is who ‘others’ expect us to be.

𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 – is who we are now.

One of the causes of low self-esteem is the gap in our personalities. The further our actual self is from our ideal self, lower is our self-esteem. Low self-esteem can contribute to decreased confidence, energy levels, enthusiasm and can affect our performance.

Self-leadership is bridging the gap between your ideal self and actual self. And even before you can start to bridge the gap you must first meet or know your ideal self?

It can be done in three steps:

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 𝟏: Bridge the gap between your ideal self and actual self.

How do you do that? By keeping the promises you make to yourself?

How do you keep the promises you make to yourself? Make realistic and achievable promises/goals? Grow them step by step. Knowing your own strengths and weaknesses. Making use of your strengths and accepting weaknesses and working with them.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 𝟐: Align your ought self with your ideal self. How do you do that? By asking powerful questions and being honest with yourself when you reply to those questions. Questions like – Is this what I really want to do? Is this my idea or it has been planted in my head? Is this really true? And embracing all the answers.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 𝟑: Continue the journey of merging and aligning. It's fulfilling, empowering and enlightening.

What does your ideal-self look like?

What is stopping you from being your ideal-self?

How is your life going to change if you were your ideal-self?
