Higher-Self Confidence

One way to boost self confidence is to first select which self you are going to identify with.  There are many levels to who we are, but I am talking from my own personal experience about the basic difference between the higher-self and the personality-self.

Your higher-self is a powerful spiritual being outside of time and space that knows it is part of a larger reality and knows it is a part of God and thus a part of all things.  It does not see itself as separate from other beings because it knows that the source for all beings is the same essence.  Self confidence is not an issue for this level of you because once you know you are part of God what more do you need? 

Your personality-self is the person that your higher-self is being in physical reality.  It sees you as separate from everything else and that causes fear, anxiety and uncertainty.  This is the level of you that sometimes needs self confidence to get through a life challenge or accomplish some task.

Over lifetimes of incarnations your higher-self has been many personality-selves.  In this life I am Lisa, before this I was a WWII pilot and before that I was Anne from Alabama.  When I can transcend viewing life from the point of view of Lisa and go up to the level of the Being who is being Lisa, I can then tap into the feelings of unity at the level of my higher-self and infuse Lisa with the confidence that she too, through my higher-self, is a part of God and all things.  Then the fears and anxieties fall away for Lisa because I know I am held in my higher-self. 

This higher-self of you existed before you are born and will exist after you die.  It holds the secret to who you are being in this lifetime and what you are here to do and experience.  If you need help and want to boost your self confidence, who best to turn to than the higher-self of you which is connected to higher dimensions of reality and knows a lot better than your personality-self what you need and how to support you.  The personality-self gets bogged down in ego issues, fears and insecurities and needs to boost self confidence.  The higher-self is what you can tap into at any time and any place to re-shift your awareness and reconnect to the deeper essence of you that is a part of all things. Your personality-self is the one who needs the self confidence and it’s your higher-self that can give it to you.

You can try all sorts of practices to elevate your self confidence, but if you don’t make the connection to where the confidence really comes from you won’t be able to tap into the true source of your greatness and ultimately the true source of your confidence.  A shallow sense of self confidence comes through the personality-self and can take you only so far.  But abiding self confidence from really knowing you are a powerful spiritual being comes from your higher-self and is there for you anytime you need it.  So get to know your higher-self and self confidence will take care of itself.
