How To Boost Your Self Esteem
Maintain a positive attitude: I represented this by the picture of the one smiley-face sticky note amongst the blue frown-face sticky notes. I thought this represented it well because the picture is saying that in a world of Debby-Downers you should still keep a smile on your face. Focus on your strengths: I believe any occupation is the best way to describe this trait. That is why I represented the idea with the scientist working on the rocket. In society we are suppose to specialize in certain areas for an occupation and we usually choose the ones we do best. I believe the scientist is sticking to his strengths by going into the field of science.
Form close relationships: I chose the picture of friends for this one. The closest relationships, outside of the family, are your best buds. That is why I chose the picture of the two friends. Nothing is closer than that type of relationship. Set goals for yourself: I chose the soccer ball to represent this aspect. In sports, goals are always an accomplishment. Whether it is making a three pointer or scoring a goal in a soccer game, there are always goals made. That is why I chose the soccer ball in the net to represent a goal that a soccer player would want to reach. Avoid risky behavior: When I first heard this, drug use came to mind. The most common example is smoking.
Avoid risky behavior is best represented by this because smoking is an extremely risky habit. You don’t want to become addicted or acquire a disease. So the no smoking sign shows how this risky behavior is being prevented. Ask for help: I believe as kids we always need help in school. The best way to do this is by raising your hand in class. That is why I represented asking for help with the student raising his had. Help others: I represented this by the mountain climbers where one is helping the other up the mountain. In the picture, the one climber is giving his hand to the other one to assist her. I thought this was a perfect way to represent helpfulness and helping others.
