Recreating yourself and becoming the 2.0 version of yourself comes down to 3 things. The first thing is believe. You need to believe it's possible to become this person. Your self-image governs your entire reality. If you don't see yourself as a world-class speaker, you're gonna deny opportunities and self-sabotage yourself when things come into your world that allow you to become that person. But if you can upgrade your identity and believe that you can be this person, you can visualize what it's like to be that person, how they think, how they act, how they feel, how they behave, you will begin to actually become that person. The second thing is behave. Once you can visualize that 2.0 version of yourself, how they think, how they act, how they feel, you begin to behave in that manner. Before your external world reflects anything, you decide you want to be a world-class speaker, you start doing that. You start acting like that person. You start posting on social media like that person. You start behaving like that person, right? So you gotta walk in faith in this stage. You're not faking it, you're faithing it. The last part is that you become. You become this person after you've been behaving like this person for, you know, a certain period of time, you're thinking like them, you're acting like them, you're posting on social media like them, you're interacting with other people like this world-class speaker or whatever you want to be. People begin to see you as that person. And then one day you just become that person. But in your head, you've been this person for the past weeks, months, years, whatever it is, right? So it's normal to you, but finally your external world catches up and you become that person. Let me know in the comments which 2.0 version of yourself you're creating.
