How to Create Your Future Self: A 5-Step Self-Image Script | Economy Creators Workshop

WHO ARE YOU inside the economy you're building?
We spend so much time thinking about what we want to create—the business, the book, the income, the relationships, the opportunities, the lifestyle.
But there's another question we need to ask:
Who do I need to become to live that life?
In this special workshop edition of Economy Creators, host Mary Reiss Farias shares her October Economy Creators Workshop on Self-Image—one of the most foundational elements of intentionally building a YOU-Shaped Economy.
Mary spent 37 years immersed in gymnastics as an athlete, collegiate gymnast, coach, gym owner, and mother. For years, her identity was inseparable from the sport.
Then she made a profound shift.
She stopped seeing herself as someone who was successful in gymnastics and began seeing herself as someone who was successful. Period.
That shift opened an entirely new world of possibilities.
Because when we change how we see ourselves, we can begin changing what we believe is possible.
In this workshop, Mary walks you through five steps to creating your own Self-Image Script—a living document that helps you intentionally develop the thoughts, beliefs, feelings, and behaviors of the person you want to become.
THE FIVE STEPS
1. Define Your Goals and Desires
What do you truly want? Explore your desires across your entire economy—health, wealth, relationships, happiness, work, and the things that bring you alive.
2. Craft Your Scene
Visualize yourself already living your ideal life. Create a vivid, sensory-rich scene that represents your desires fulfilled.
3. Create Your Affirmations
Rather than borrowing someone else's affirmations, discover the characteristics of your ideal self and create personal “I AM” statements.
4. Describe Your Ideal Traits
Go deeper. What does being confident, calm, wise, joyful, or successful actually look like in your daily life? Describe how your ideal self thinks, believes, acts, and responds.
5. Embody Your Ideal Self
Combine your scene, affirmations, and descriptions into a script. Read it, refine it, record it in your own voice, listen to it, and begin practicing being that person every day.
YOUR SELF-IMAGE IS CENTRAL TO YOUR ECONOMY
Your YOU-Shaped Economy isn't simply about making money.
It's about intentionally creating a life around your interests, talents, experiences, relationships, desires, and the person you truly want to be.
And YOU are at the center of it.
Your self-image influences what you attempt, what you accept, how you respond, and what you believe you're capable of accomplishing.
This workshop is an invitation to stop defining yourself by who you've been—and begin intentionally creating who you're becoming.
Your future self is waiting. Let's begin building.
