250 The Impossible Self-Image

You cannot build a hill that has only one direction.

You may want it to go only ‘up’.

Fine, but it does go both ways.

To take away uphill / you automatically take away downhill __

You have no option. None.

OK, so?

Well, why do you try to build an Impossible Self-Image for yourself?

For example, how quickly and readily do you accept blame for your errors?

Now, how quickly and readily do you accept credit for things well done?

See, an Impossible Self-Image has only one side.

Oh, it works both ways.

If you easily accept credit, how easily do you accept blame.

Impossible Self-Images are not real.

Accepting both blame and credit contributes to a healthy, balanced Self-Image.
