The Ideal Self...

“The ideal self is the image we hold of the very best we are capable of, our highest strengths realised and active.” - Martin Seligman

I think we all have that picture in our minds, of the person we know we can be. Some days that person is like a twin, and other days like some long-lost relative, but that person is always there, showing us what could be.

I wonder what would happen if we decided to do one thing today to take us closer to that ideal self ?

And I also wonder whether, if we did one thing every day, it would stop being our ‘ideal self’, and would simply become our self…
