3. Define the habits of your ideal self. Consider everything you can possibly think of. Here are a few items to stimulate your thinking: ● How many times a day does he brush his teeth? Does he floss? When does he floss? ● What time does she|he go to bed and get up? Does she|he read in bed? What does she|he read? Does she|he have a daily reading habitat another time of day? ● What is his|her morning routine like? ● Does she|he work out? How long? How often? What type of workout does she|he do? What does she|he eat? How often? How much does she|he weigh? ● Does she|he journal? What does she|he journal about? ● What does she|he think about when she|he's waiting in traffic?

4. Fill in details of his|her traits. A person is more than just their habits. Let’s consider some more traits. ● What does she|he wear? What type of car does she|he drive? Hairstyle? ● Attitudes toward dating? Would she|he just approach an attractive stranger and strike up a conversation? Date just one person or several at a time? ● Is she|he bold? Cautious? Calculating? ● Giving? Selfish? Practical? ● Religious? Spiritual? ● What are his|her values and beliefs? ● What skills does she|he have? ● And everything else you can think of. Imagine you are creating a character for a movie. Be highly detailed.

5. Use the SWISH pattern. This is a powerful technique for encouraging yourself to behave like your ideal self. ● Have a clear visual image of your ideal self with all the habits, qualities, and characteristics you desire. The image should only contain your ideal self without a background or context. Just a blank screen with your ideal self standing in front of it and looking at you. ● Whenever you find yourself tempted to behave in a way that isn’t congruent with your ideal self, bring up that image and then behave appropriately instead. This technique is very helpful.

6. Get started. Take a look at all the habits and characteristics you listed. Pick a few of the easier ones and incorporate them into your life. Repeat this process until you’re living all of them.

7. Look for evidence.

Whenever you catch yourself acting like your ideal self, draw your attention to it. You can even say to yourself, “See, I am becoming my ideal self. I am the kind of person that only eats_________ .”
