Believing In Myself and Getting To Where I Want To Be

Dr. Zonnya

To begin creating and sustaining personal success, you must have a starting point.  From that starting point, you discover Wisdom, Inspiration, Success, Health and Happiness on the journey.

One of my favorite quotes is from Souls on Fire by Elie Wiesel:  But where was I to start?  The world’s is so vast; I shall start with the country I know best, my own.  But my country is so large, I had better start with my town, but my town, too is large.  I had best start with my street.  NO:  My home.  NO:  My family.  NO: Never mind, I shall start with myself.

To discover and develop a “balanced self-love,” a “balanced self-confidence,” a “balanced deserve level” is the first step toward creating More, Better, Greater positive results in your life.

It has been said through the years that the initial years of our lives are where most of our programming is learned and follows us throughout our lives.  Much of our initial programming was negative; so that will affect the kinds of choices we make.  Until “one magic day” a light bulb comes on:  You have been listening to other people and their programming, you have been reading books by people who present a Positive approach to life, and you are beginning to observe others who have a different kind of life . . . then you begin to make major ‘mind-set shifts’ and results begin to change.

At first, reprogramming your mind-set may feel strange, even to the point of uncomfortable.  Please know that is OK, even normal.  Just continue to keep an open mind, ears, eyes, and heart and you will begin to discover the Greater you that is inside you.

The results in sharing these ideas with you is to give you simple, practical, adaptable, usable and workable systems on  “balanced self- love,” “balance self-confidence,” and  “balanced deserve-level.”

A SOS MOMENT   The mind is like a parachute, it has to be open to work.

I am often asked:  On what do you base your belief in self-love?  I firmly believe that self-love is based upon more than just philosophy or psychology.  While positive self-love can be viewed through the eyes of the thought and mind, I am also convinced it encompasses a “spiritual” dimension.

I purposely use the word “spiritual” as opposed to religion or denominationalism.  For me, the “spiritual,” is bigger than a religion.  It is empowering to have a ”faith” in a higher source than myself.  Faith in the Creator of the universe and faith in a positive Spirit that surrounds me with power gives me a sense of authority, a feeling of competency, and a presence of who I am.

A SOS MOMENT   Love they neighbor as thyself.

I believe this to be an internationally accepted way to think, live, and treat others.  Just for exactness . . . the word “as” means “equal to.” “Love thy neighbor ‘equal to’ thyself.”

Balanced self-love will be determined by what and how I see myself, which then will dramatically affect on what and how I see others.
