Let's master our inner voice

A lagoa Freitas, Rio de Janeiro

Let’s see this video one more time:

What is happening:

People are in a situation where they have to describe their face having no outside input at all when they do so.

 They only use their perceptions, their personal beliefs linked with their physical appearance.

We have the forensic artist. 

He is drawing two sketches. 

One from the description of the person makes of themselves and another one from a person who met the person just before for the first time: no belief, no a priori is linked to the physical appearance of the person for them.

Then, the person can see the two representations of themselves.

We can see the reactions of surprise, sometimes very emotional when facing their portrait.

On most of the sketches we see the painted portrait after the stranger description being much more beautiful, friendly than the one made after the self-description.

That leads me to the point I wanted to develop here:

Most of us have become experts at putting ourselves down. Judging us extremely negatively and being unable to even use positive words to describe our face ….. 

you have understood that it is all about our whole self, not our face or body.

Why is that ?

We build our beliefs on the feelings we create when going through an exterior situation: an event, a word, a music, a film … anything that touches one and/or more of our 5 senses.

The more those exterior informations are linked with a person that we feel is important to us, the more we will be affected by it.

We fuse feeling  /  situation and create a belief.

We build those judgments on ourselves deep into our culture, our education and frozen them with a negative emotion.

Then we have our inner voice that keep repeating those beliefs again and again …

Easier to build a belief than to re assess it . . . though it can be done.

It is a way to rediscover one’s self in the most positive and realistic way.

Recognising oneself does not mean thinking we are above the others. 

Those beliefs are so often wrongly linked.

No we are not neither above nor under. At another place and that is fine.

Recognising oneself means recognizing the others.

One lady says:

“The way we see ourselves impacts on everything in our life. It couldn’t be more critical to our happiness.”

Yes

And

“yes, I am more beautiful than I say”

Yes we are

Do ask someone today to describe your face. Enjoy it !

Have a beautiful day !
