Self-Esteem, Self-Confidence, Self-Loathing! And the Real You.
Consider all that's been said and written about developing "self-confidence"; all you've heard about self-improvement; all the stuff churned out by the personal development industry, the self-growth industry.
And consider what modern psychology and neuroscience knows about the so-called Conceptual Self... the person you think you are, the person that... isn't really there.
You don't need to develop anything, you don't need to improve yourself, you certainly don't any personal growth. You're perfect as you are - it's just that the person who isn't there, the Conceptual You, would have you think otherwise.
The prattling nonsensical noise in your own head is drowning out who you really are. Worse, it actually, daily, makes you think you're something less... a something in need of self-improvement.
Wake up - smell the coffee - experience the present moment. In the present moment the real you will present herself or himself to you... and it will be an eye-opener.
