Mirroring is a pretty straight forward concept that will change your life. It is an integral part of the self-development and growth process. Everything in our lives right now is a reflection of our thoughts, inner and otherwise. Our thoughts are very powerful, so powerful that our entire lives have been created around them. Wild, right?
Mirroring is best explained this way:
What you see in someone else is a direct reflection of what you see in yourself. This is pretty awesome when you can think back to times where you complimented someone because you can think ‘Hm, wow I guess I think that about myself’.
Have you ever been irritated by someone so badly for “no reason”? Or better yet you know the reason and it irks you to know end? Well that’s because those are negative qualities you possess. Yeah, I don’t like to believe it either, but it’s true.
On the flip-side all those great people you admire and successful people you try to emulate, their qualities are a reflection of your qualities. You are that awesome, my friend.
Why mirroring will change your life:
Ever heard that saying by Wayne Dyer, ‘When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change’? The more you catch yourself being annoyed by someone else, the more self-aware you become and the more you’re likely to replace negative traits with positive ones.
When you mirror, you will consciously seek out successful people whose habits you want to pick up. You’ll become less like the people that annoy you and more like the people you admire.
It’s unlikely you’ll like every person you meet, and now you can at least try to figure out why. You can’t change other people, but you can change yourself and sometimes that’s all we need.
