Over the years I’ve seen people with self-respect and confidence and I’ve seen those without.

 It makes
me sad to see them without respect for themselves and just in a state of misery. Thinking positive is not
easy! Nothing in this life will be easy; we will cry, laugh, scream and be silent. For numbers 1 and 8 I
choose the answer “strongly agree” because I am satisfied with myself the fact that I am still alive and
doing well means that I have still a purpose in life and I always believe that God made me in his image so
I am very satisfied with myself. But in number 8 I feel that I have no respect for myself because even
though I didn’t want to do it I will still do what others say because I want them to be like me.

For number 2,3,4,6,7, and 10 I chose the answer “agree” because sometimes when life is hard and it was
making me think more negatively that I am no good at all as a human and I feel useless if I can’t help
others. What I really like about myself is that I have good qualities to be proud of, I also can do things
others can do and my mom always tells me that I am a worthy person if I think that I am in the right then
I will fight for it.
For numbers 5 and 9, I chose the answer “disagree” because I really have nothing to be proud of, I am
still young and doesn’t know what life truly is, but I will never feel a failure because once I believed that I
am a failure everything will go wrong because of that negative sentence.

There’s nothing better than maturing and knowing that I am enough. All that I have is what God gave me
nothing more and nothing less. I believe that a person’s character is reflected by his or her own self
esteem. I believe that by thinking positively and having high self-esteem I can have happier, better
outlook on life.
