Episode #100: Self Concept

August 5, 2021

Self concept – the way you see yourself – may not be something you think about consciously, but it is a key factor in your ability to internalise your success and create results every single day.

If you’re wondering why your imposter syndrome won’t go away, despite all you’ve achieved, the answer is an outdated self-concept. You’re progressing to a new level in your career with the old version of who you are.

The way to avoid this is to work on your self concept so that you become the new version of yourself ahead of time. It’s what I do each time I want to achieve big goals and the results have blown my mind.
