What is vanity?

Vanity is a false image we have about ourselves. Our failures and negative self-images, however, are not in the same category. Vanity is created when you think you are the most beautiful one and you start acting like that. You think you can do everything, and you hold that idea in your mind. A vanity is formed by three wrong images: you think you can DO anything, you HAVE everything, or you ARE everything.

If you think you are ugly and you are not, that is a post-hypnotic suggestion within your mind, and you act as if you were ugly. But it is not vanity. A vanity is something beyond what you are or have or can do.
