PROLOGUE

Self-Image is our self-limiting portable box.

Our world and everything in it reflects our mental attitude toward ourselves.

It's the ultimate internal regulator: whenever the temperature rises above comfort level, it will take us back to base like a thermostat. Self-image is determined by the paradigms that run our life and mind unconsciously.

Unless we resolve our deep-rooted issues, address our core needs and then up-level our self-image, we will reach the temperature we are comfortable in sooner or later. Then Self-sabotage comes in.

And there we start again.

And sometimes, we cross the line and our moral compass to meet our needs.
