Unlock Your Future Success: How to Align Your Self-Image with Your Goals Today

Ever feel like you’re doing all the right things but still not seeing the results you want? It might not be your strategy that’s holding you back—it’s your self-image. Just like a thermostat controls the temperature in your house, your self-image sets the limit on your success. If it’s out of sync with your goals, you're spinning your wheels without moving forward. But here’s the exciting part: you don’t have to wait to reach your goals to feel successful. You can start living as your future self right now, and it might just change everything.

During our Propeller Experience Mastermind session yesterday, participants had a significant "aha" moment: Your self-image directly determines the results you see in your career, relationships, and fulfillment. Many of us unknowingly operate from a self-image that doesn’t align with the future we want. It’s like trying to change the temperature in your house while the thermostat is stuck at 26 degrees and all the windows are wide open. We’re doing all the things, but we’re not shifting the internal settings that control the outcomes.

Understanding the Self-Image Problem

Think of it this way: You can tick all the boxes as an entrepreneur, but if your belief thermostat is set to “corporate employee,” you’ll struggle to feel capable of success. Or maybe you're applying for jobs and networking, but if your belief thermostat is set to “career break,” those callbacks just don’t come. This invisible force—your self-image—often holds you back from reaching the next level.

How Do You Know If You’re on Autopilot?

We discussed how many of us don’t realize when we’re running on autopilot. Here are some signs your self-image might be out of sync with your goals:

• Spinning Your Wheels: You’re working hard but feel like you're pushing against an invisible ceiling.
• Disconnected from Success: Your goals seem distant and unattainable, like a future version of yourself that you can’t quite reach.
• Waiting for Happiness: If you often think, "I'll be happy when..." or "I'll feel successful once I've achieved...," you’re waiting for external achievements to validate your internal worth.

Their Biggest Takeaway!

You’re Already Her! One empowering realization was that many of us are already living parts of our future selves—we just don’t always recognize it. We catch glimpses but struggle to fully embody her consistently. Like Pokeroo!

Reconnecting with Your Future Self

It’s easy to lose touch with your future self amid life's distractions. Here are some ways to reconnect:

• Journal: Write about her. What are her habits, mindset, and daily choices?
• Vision Board: Create visual reminders of who she is, what she does, and what makes her happy.
• Post-it Notes: Place reminders around your space—questions like “Who am I being today?” or “What would she do?” keep you aligned with your future self.

Be Her Now

Newsflash....You don’t have to wait until you've reached your goals to feel like she does—happy, proud, fulfilled, joyful. You can start now.

• Feel As She Feels: Visualize her, journal about her, or turn to your vision board and step into her shoes. How does she feel in that moment? Feel those emotions now.
• Embody Her Mindset: Consider what choices she would make and how she would handle situations. Would she choose abundance or scarcity? A glass half full or half empty?
• Take Small Actions: You might not be able to live her full reality right now, but you can start small. Can you adopt her morning routine? Can you turn off your phone after 8 p.m.? Where can you begin to live as she lives so you can start feeling as she feels?

Align Your Subconscious with Success

We explored how visualization and breathwork can align your subconscious mind with your goals, helping you collapse time and step into your future self now.
