• I am becoming the self-image I want to be, but in the meantime, I won’t exist.
• I must deny I am my old self-images, because they were inferior selves of mine.
• I must deny that I am attached to any self-image that will make me look inferior to others.
• I must never become my ideal self-image, else I will have to face the fact that it is dead making me dead.
• I must defend my attachment to my self-images, because the life of my ego and self are at risk when my self-images are at risk.
