Analyzing Your Current Self-Image – Changing
Guy Van Looveren

“Talking to yourself like you love yourself can change your life.”

— Brené Brown

What is your current self-image?

Your self-image is the foundation of your life. A positive self-image means you:

  • Think well of yourself.
  • Feel good in your own skin.
  • Accept who you are.
  • Trust in your abilities.
  • Believe you are worthy of love, just as you are.

It also means you see your own value, both to yourself and to others. Importantly: you don’t need to be perfect. No one is — and imperfection is what makes you perfectly human.

But what if you don’t meet these criteria? Then a search begins — a search for who you really are.

Layers that hide your true self

Much of your self-image is shaped by outside influences: parents, teachers, society, culture, friends, religion. These influences form layers of limiting beliefs that cover your true self, like the layers of an onion.

Peeling back these layers is the way to uncover your core — your soul, your authentic essence. This is not a quick fix, but a patient process of self-awareness. Each time you shed a limiting belief, another layer appears. Yet with every step, you come closer to the truth: the real you was always there, hidden beneath.

Making the subconscious conscious

Science tells us that 95% of our behavior runs on subconscious programs. Some are self-made, but most are inherited. They operate like automatic software running in the background of your mind.

The path to transformation is simple:

  1. Recognize that your current self-image may be false or limiting.
  2. Observe the thoughts, feelings, and beliefs that weaken you.
  3. Peel away the layers that are not truly you.
  4. Rediscover your authentic core.
  5. Rebuild your self-image with constructive, positive beliefs.

When you make the subconscious conscious, you regain the power to choose who you want to be.

Rediscovering your true self

As you apply conscious awareness to your self-talk, emotions, and habits, your self-image begins to heal naturally. The false programs dissolve, and your true essence shines through.

The reward? An authentic life filled with confidence, clarity, and strength. When your self-image aligns with who you really are, you stop living by the expectations of others — and begin living from your own power.

“The most important relationship you can have is the one with yourself.”

— Audrey Hepburn

🔑 Rebuild your self-image from the inside out.

Your core has always been there — it’s just hidden under layers of limiting beliefs.
