Once we understand how to change our self-concept,

we can change everything about our lives too.

Hello my loves, welcome back to my channel.

If you're new, I'm Leroy Alexandra.

Welcome to the bee community.

On this channel, we talk about the law of attraction,

spirituality, personal development, and so much more.

And today my loves, I want to talk about something

that I have talked about in the past for sure under different names.

Originally, this is a Neville Goddard principle.

I've talked about this concept before

but I want to make a dedicated video to it

because self-concept is a lifelong journey and the reason why it's

so important is

because it truly determines how everything else in our lives is going to look the way

that we hold ourselves in what regard

and what esteem we see ourselves in is going to affect every other level

and stage of our lives and this is something

that I have to always go back to because I've noticed that when there's a particular challenge that comes up for me,

what really helps me in overcoming it is to return to my self-concept and to my understanding of myself,

how I see myself and how capable I find myself of overcoming whatever challenge it is.

And in the days where I feel like I can't overcome things,

it really comes down to my self-concept being off

and my belief about myself as a person who can't handle a lot of stress or a person who can't overcome things.

And I have to return to that and I have to come back to my true belief of myself,

which is I know that whatever I'm presented with is something

that is specifically prescribed for me to be able to go through.

In the same way that for you,

whatever you are dealt with,

whatever hands, whatever cards you are dealt,

is specifically prescribed for you because you are able to uniquely overcome it.

So that's what I want to talk about today in regards to self-concept

and also social media and what creating our self-concept through too much stimulation is doing to us

and what we should do instead.

But before we get into today's video,

a quick word from our sponsor.

So if you haven't yet heard of Hungry Root,

Hungry Root is a grocery service that delivers you groceries right to your door.

When I started using Hungry Root,

I actually had to take a short fun quiz before I signed up.

It asked me about my habits,

my dietary needs, my goals.

Hungry Root then sent me personalized weekly groceries filled with healthy and fresh foods.

Hungry Root, I really wish you would stop sending me this delicious almond chickpea cookie dough because I can't stop.

What babe?

You put that in the cart.

I put this in the cart?

Yes, you put three in the cart.

I made this decision.

Yeah.

Hungry Root, thank you for allowing me to choose this incredible cookie dough in my cart.

I make really good decisions.

That's why I get Hungry Root.

Now that I've gotten a few orders with Hungry Root,

I have a few favorites like the chip pea cookie dough

and I'm mixing and matching the things that I get every week to make new meals.

This week I'm making a paneer curry which I'm very excited about.

Vegetable curry.

I have all the veggies,

I have the sauce, I have the paneer and I'm gonna add tofu in it that I already have in the fridge.

I'm also going to make some garlic,

lemon, fingerling potatoes in the oven.

My favorite part about Hungry Root though is that I get to discover new brands and new foods.

I haven't had this chocolate before, now I have.

It's the best one there is.

I'm going to order it with every delivery.

They also provide you with recipes that come in your box.

You can mix and match with what you already have in your fridge to create something new,

which is what I like to do.

Because Hungry Root is sponsoring this video,

the first hundred people to use my code or 40,

will get 40% off your first grocery order at HungryRoot.com.

There's over 2,000 fast and easy recipes that you can make,

and you're gonna contribute to less food waste and get to spend more time just enjoying your food.

Thank you, Hungry Root, for sponsoring today's video.

So what is self-concept?

In essence, self-concept is how we see ourselves.

It's also our understanding of the world and how the world sees and accepts us.

It's our mental image of ourselves,

and that creates our identity,

or at least what we believe our identity to be.

And the reason why this is so important is because whatever beliefs you hold about yourself

are going to be projected onto the blank screen of reality and creating what you see in your external reality.

So whatever you believe about yourself internally will be reflected and will show up in your life externally.

So if you see yourself as somebody who is lovable,

you will experience a lot of lovable experiences in your life, right?

People will treat you as if you are worthy of love.

If you see yourself as unworthy or undeserving of being loved,

you will experience that as well.

Now, as adults, as autonomous beings,

this is truly under our control,

especially once we get this specific information.

Well, when we were children,

this was not under our control.

And the reason for that is because from the ages of 1 through 7,

sometimes even up to 12,

children primarily oscillate between the brainwave stages of alpha and theta,

sometimes coming into reality which is beta and in the alpha

and theta stages we are like sponges right

100

so how I like to explain it is the triangle of deception we are programmed we are indoctrinated

101

and we are domesticated by church,

102

state, friends, family, neighbors, classmates,

103

teachers, society, social media and all these different things

104

and we are taught to perceive the world in one way to perceive ourselves in a specific way.

105

So our self-concept is essentially created for us when we are children.

106

So if you've not done any work with your self-concept or with your beliefs about yourself,

107

then you are likely living out a personality and a paradigm that you never chose yourself.

108

So as an adult or as a young adult or a fully autonomous being at whatever age,

109

you can take your power into your own hands by recreating your own self-concept.

110

So this is a process of analyzing what it is that you believe yourself to be in all areas of your life.

111

Are you deserving of love?

112

Are you attractive?

113

Are you intelligent?

114

Are you creative?

115

Do you like certain types of people?

116

Do you not like certain types?

117

What are your likes and what are your dislikes?

118

For most of us until we start to really start to review ourselves We are not aware

119

that what we have become is an amalgamation of the voices

120

and the noise around us and having a really strong self-concept is knowing yourself

121

and Uncovering and exploring who you really are

122

Figuring out what it is that you like and what you don't like

123

and what you truly believe With everything unraveled right with all of societal expectations

124

culture everything that you've learned being unraveled right now in our modern times in 2023

125

when i'm recording this there is so much stimulation and

126

so much content that we are constantly consuming

127

and it's all about be this girl be this kind of

128

guy look like this think like this eat like this dress

129

like this be this person take these photos go to these places and then where

130

does your individuality and your unique expression where does that fall

131

because what happens is that we are constantly submerged

132

and basically attacked all day long by all this stimulation all these things

133

that are creating layers of on top of our already created personality

134

and self-concept so suddenly we're scrolling through instagram

135

and we're we're looking at somebody's stories or looking at somebody's feed or real or tick tock,

136

even if we're not conscious of it, we're constantly comparing ourselves.

137

Let's say that there's somebody who is conventionally attractive,

138

something that you would see in a magazine.

139

Not all of us can find ourselves represented in it still.

140

Right.

141

So you're looking at a conventionally beautiful person.

142

And even if you're not consciously aware of it,

143

you are comparing yourself moment by moment by moment.

144

And once you're done with this person,

145

you keep scrolling and you go to the next thing.

146

And this person is in Hawaii.

147

And that person is getting their million subscriber plaque on YouTube, right?

148

Or a million subscribers or followers on TikTok.

149

And even if you're not aware of it,

150

you're still comparing yourself to all these things.

151

This is gnawing away at your self-concept and it's wearing down your identity and your self-esteem.

152

So how do we reclaim our natural nature?

153

And the reason why I think we need to reclaim it is because we were perfectly created.

154

There was nothing wrong with us.

155

The way that the creator put us here on earth is exactly the blueprint

156

and the frame that we are supposed to carry through this life.

157

Whether it is keeping our cultural noses,

158

our strong bodies, our curly hair,

159

our red hair, our silky hair,

160

whatever skin color we have,

161

whatever it is, we have to reclaim the things that truly make us us.

162

and it's not necessarily these external characteristics because that's not what makes us us

163

but like who is underneath all the programming and all the the content

164

that we've consumed who are we really and remembering

165

that we are made these unique beautiful expressions of the divine in whatever bodies we were given

166

and the soul is what really matters our soul is what wants to be seen the comparison

167

or the constantly trying to emulate the things

168

that we see online is only hurting us

169

because truly the code to success to happiness to fulfillment to joy to transcendence

170

that exists in our unique self and so that exists

171

when you turn everything off

172

and you turn to yourself you start asking yourself well what

173

do i like what am i interested in what are my thoughts in my opinions,

174

not ones affected by everything else.

175

So we start to consume less content,

176

start to unravel everything that we are not so we can finally explore what we actually might be.

177

And don't get me wrong,

178

it's beautiful to be inspired by people.

179

I find a lot of inspiration from people online and in my external reality.

180

But I have to do what makes me feel right internally.

181

And this is not exclusive to social media.

182

I share this story a lot.

183

I had a best friend my whole I trusted her opinion

184

so much over my own opinion that I would not date certain people

185

if I found them attractive but she didn't because I didn't trust myself and because I didn't trust myself

186

My dating life looks way different than it should have

187

because maybe I would have made better decisions Maybe I would have made better choices

188

if I had listened to myself and not allowed somebody else's validation to take over my own

189

So I had a weak self-concept and that can play out in many different areas of our life.

190

You might be dating and things aren't working out and you're dating different people but the same thing keeps happening.

191

Almost as if you haven't learned your lesson so you keep experiencing this cycle again and again.

192

Well that might mean that you need to take a look at your self-concept.

193

How do you see yourself?

194

What do you find yourself worthy of?

195

What we'll often find is without putting any blame or shame on ourselves,

196

it's that we are emitting some sort of frequency that is beginning these cyclical situations, right?

197

And we have to change what we believe about ourselves.

198

So we consume less, we get to know ourselves more,

199

we consider what beliefs we hold about ourselves,

200

and this is the most important thing.

201

Whatever you say, I am to,

202

whatever comes after I am for you,

203

is how you reveal your self-concept and what you believe about yourself.

204

And you're going to say this out loud through your conversations with others,

205

you're texting your friends and you're like, oh, I'm so stupid.

206

That is your self-concept.

207

And it's so much easier and so much more comfortable for the world

208

if you do believe yourself be stupid and ugly and poor.

209

It makes people uncomfortable if you believe yourself to be beautiful and worthwhile and wealthy and healthy and capable.

210

It makes people uncomfortable at first

211

and then you become a permission slip for everybody else just like how you've been inspired by others.

212

You begin to inspire everybody else to also allow themselves to be,

213

to have a stronger self-concept.

214

And once you return to your I am's and realize what it is you're declaring to the quantum realm?

215

What are you saying to the to the universe that you are?

216

What are you telling the creator?

217

This is what I am.

218

This is what I expect.

219

And if those things are negative,

220

you're going to see a negative external reality.

221

And if those things are positive,

222

you're going to see your life change.

223

And that lucky girl syndrome that everybody talks about,

224

that's going to come to you if you have a strong self-concept.

225

A really good example of this in my own life that I've shared before,

226

I think, is that I had a self-concept for many,

227

many years that I was an outcast.

228

I was weird.

229

I was different.

230

And because of that, I'm not going to find somebody who is going to fit me.

231

I'm not going to find somebody who gets me.

232

It's too hard.

233

Or maybe people don't, you know,

234

people in my community in real life,

235

maybe they don't want to be around me because I'm weird.

236

I'm the weird girl.

237

And then I realized that that self-concept is something that I inherited,

238

that I grew up with because it's something that I heard when I was a little kid.

239

Because I was a little bit of a weird little kid.

240

I would talk to the wind and the fairies and all that.

241

But I know that I'm not alone in that.

242

And, you know, sometimes the kids who do that end up being the coolest kids.

243

And so I carried for years a self-concept of being weird

244

and being afraid that I was making people uncomfortable by my weirdness until one day I looked around and I was like,

245

wait, I created this incredible life for myself.

246

I have a community of

247

600,000 people around the world and my thoughts are helping people and who I am Authentically is helping people.

248

This isn't weird.

249

I'm unique I'm different and thank God for that because

250

if I was normal if I kept trying to stay normal like I did

251

when I was a teenager I tried to stay in line with what was the status quo

252

And perhaps I wouldn't be as effective at what I'm doing

253

and that goes back to that secret code Once you accept yourself and once you trust yourself,

254

you're going to be a force to be reckoned with.

255

So that's my little spiel about self-concept.

256

I hope it was enlightening for you.

257

I hope that it touched a place that needed to be touched

258

and I hope that you change your self-concept of being one of the weird kids like me

259

and to being one of the taste makers.

260

The weirdest people are the ones who start the most interesting trends and who shift the paradigm.

261

Tell me what your old self concept was,

262

where it came from, and what the new one is.

263

I want to know.
