Let’s begin to know yourself, since the essential formula for achievement
is self analysis:

Tell me your biological or inherited traits

and your environment or acquired traits.
1.1 You as You

Be your own bestfriend and believe

yourself, so you can become the person
you want to be.

unique in your own way. Only you can
control your destiny and make a difference
in your life.

Being aware of and remaining constantly on guard against the
Filipino tendency toward negativism, you can eventually propel
yourself into positivism.

Use your “Lakas at Tibay ng

Loob” (strength and courage) to
move away from the fatalistic
“Gulong ng Palad” (wheel of
fortune) and “Bahala na” (come
what may) attitude.
1.2 You as a Filipino
Begin by getting involved with your own life. Makialam ka sa
buhay mo! Begin without expecting instant miracles and
remembering that you’ve only got real friend and one worst
enemy – and that is YOUR SELF.

Believe in your abilities and work

unyielding to reach your objective.
1.3 You and your Faith
Filipino worship is directed towards God as a father-figure who
takes care of all.

“Bahala na ang Diyos” – signifies that Divine Providence is

responsible for our destinies. Thus, whenever problem

all the misfortunes.

 The Levels of Self Talk
Self-talk is a way to override our past negative programming by erasing or replacing it w
ith conscious, positive new directions. It is a practical way to live with active intent rathe
r than by passive acceptance.

Level 1
Self Talk

Level 1: The Level of Negative Acceptance (“I Can’t…)

L1
The Level of Negative acceptance is the lowest, least beneficial level and the most harmful
level of self-talk. It is a self-talk by which you say something bad or negative about yourself,
and you accept it. It is characterized by words, “I can’t…” or “If only I could…”. It is our
of telling ourselves to hesitate, question our capabilities, and accept less than we know we
could have done.

Level 1 Level 2

Level 2: The Level of Recognition and Need to Change (“I need to… I should…”)

L2
This level is beguiling. On the surface it looks as though it should work for us. But instead,
it works against us. In this level we are stating to our selves and to others our recognition of
our need to change. It is characterized by words such as “I need to… I ought to… I
would…”. It works against us because it creates a problem that has no solution.

Level 3: The Level of Decision to Change (“I never… I no longer…”)

L3
This level is the first level of self-talk that works for you instead of against you. In this level
you recognize the need to change, but you also make the decision to do something about it
– and you state the decision in the “present tense” – as though the change is taking place.
It is characterized by the words “I never… I no longer…”

Level 4: The Level of the Better You (“I am…”)

L4
This is the most effective kind of self-talk we can ever use. This has been used the least
and is needed most. It is at this level that you are painting a completed new picture or your
self, the way you really wanted to be, handling it to your subconscious, and saying, “This
is me I want you to create!”

Level 5: The Level of Universal Affirmation (“It is…”)

L5
This level of self-talk has been spoken for thousands of years. It is as old as the ancient
religions which inspired it. It is the self-talk of “Oneness” with God. This level speaks of a
unity of spirit, a divine and timeless cosmic affinity which transcends all worldly things and
gives meaning to our being. This is the self talk for seekers, still living among mankind, but
anxious to find greater reward. It sounds like: “I am one of the universe and it is one
with me. I am fit, within it, and exist as a shinning spark in a firmament of divine
goodness.”
