Self Confidence, Self Esteem and Motivation
You can achieve your ultimate goal your personal best.  Regardless of background, education, financial position, etc.  every individual is subconsciously induced to move onward and upward, to be their best.

Three main factors are essential to your positive progress:

• Self-esteem
• Confidence
• Motivation

Maybe you are extremely critical of yourself, or be afraid to try anything new.  Maybe you minimize your successes with comments like, "I was just lucky" or "Anybody could have done that".   This kind of self depreciation is not accidental; nor does it materialize out of nowhere, suddenly as a symptom.  It reflects conditioning in the past.  Unfortunately, low self-esteem is most often programmed unintentionally by judgmental parents or role models. 

Depreciating labels and negative comments program young minds during their formative years.  Labels thought to be buried and forgotten still reside deep in the subconscious mind and contribute to the way you perceive yourself. The worst scars can be the invisible ones. You can learn or inherit the negative "thinking style" of your judgmental parent. It appears as a critical inner voice that produces fear to try anything new, fear of change, fear of failure or success, as well as a lack of self acceptance.

Napoleon Hill demonstrated six basic fears that diminish self confidence in his book,  "Law of Success".  Overcoming these fears will enable you to have self confidence:

• Fear of Poverty 
• Old Age
• Criticism
• The Loss of the Love of Someone
• Illness,  and
• Death

Hypnosis and Self-Esteem
The change to increased self-confidence is well accomplished through hypnosis and positive subconscious reprogramming.  Specifically, you need to:

• Rid yourself of past negative programming
• Improve your self-projection
• Increase your confidence and self-acceptance
• Change your perspective on your relationship to a given problem
• Pinpoint your goals
• Establish a sequence of goals
• Experience the sense of completion

Motivation
Once you've improved your self-esteem, you must improve your motivation. There are six main elements in the process of motivation.

Desire: To be motivated you must have an intense burning desire to get where or what you want. 

Decision: You must make a conscious decision on what to aim for. 

Determination: You need to be able to repeat the habits which are necessary to get there. 

Discipline: It is critical to pay the price even when it is not easy.
