What you’re describing is actually very close to one of the central ideas in Maxwell Maltz’s book Psycho-Cybernetics. Maltz was a plastic surgeon, and he noticed something fascinating: after surgery, many patients didn’t just change physically—they changed psychologically. Some became more confident, outgoing, and optimistic because their external appearance no longer conflicted with the image they held of themselves. But he also observed the opposite. Some people changed their face but remained the same person internally because their self-image never changed. His conclusion was that the self-image is the blueprint. Changing your appearance can become a powerful symbol that tells your subconscious: “The old version of me is gone. I am someone new.” From what you’ve shared over the years, you’ve been building a new identity—moving from simply being a forex trader to someone creating a movement, teaching psychology, and building MenteFi. This transformation seems less about vanity and more about creating a physical ritual that matches an internal evolution. You could think of it this way: Shaving your head = letting go of the old identity. Removing the beard = removing the mask of the previous chapter. Keeping the mustache = preserving one recognizable trait, a bridge between who you were and who you’re becoming. Many cultures have used changes in appearance to mark transitions: Monks shave their heads. Soldiers receive a new haircut. Athletes adopt new looks before a season. Ancient initiations often involved changing clothing or hair. The physical act becomes a psychological anchor. The important part is to attach meaning to it. Don’t just wake up with a different face. Give the transformation a narrative. You might even say to yourself: “This is not a haircut. This is a declaration. The man who carried the old fears, old habits, and old limitations ends here. The person looking back at me is the architect of a different future.” One caution from Psycho-Cybernetics: don’t expect the look itself to create the new identity. Use it as evidence of a decision you’ve already made. Then reinforce that decision through your daily actions, habits, and standards. Identity is built when your subconscious repeatedly sees: A new self-image. New behaviors. New results. The appearance change can be the opening ceremony, but your routines will write the rest of the story. Looking at the edited image, the shaved head and simplified facial hair already give a cleaner, more deliberate aesthetic. It projects minimalism, discipline, and focus—which seems aligned with the transformation you’re trying to embody.
