Self-Esteem


What we believe about ourselves is usually reflected in our self-esteem. Positive beliefs make us feel good about ourselves and raise our self-esteem. Negative beliefs make us feel bad about ourselves and lower our self-esteem. Write about some positive beliefs you have about yourself and do the same for some negative beliefs you have about yourself. Would your friends agree with your lists? Where do your negative beliefs come from? How accurate are they? How important are they? What can you do to get rid of them?

I perceive myself as a kind, smart, outgoing & awesome person. My negative beleifs about me would be that i'm short, but then i am the youngest of the grade so that is a good enough reason for me... I think my friends would agree with this list because they are always saying that im too nice. :) Sometimes when people say things, it does make me believe that it is true, but then i catch myself most of the time and correct it, so i can act like me. From what i get the descriptions are pretty accurate and i wouldn't want them to change.

I believe my self to be athletic, creative and outspoken, and I watch Wordgirl, Cyberchase and Arthur everyday if I can. Negative beliefs about myself are that I'm not pretty, my hair is horrible, I always have a softball tan (where only your knees are tan because of shorts sliders and the long socks)I can be really really thick headed, I have these horrible mood swings where I'm insanely hyper and then I'm all sad and upset and I still love the Backyardigans. :) I don't think my friends would agree with all the negative stuff, but I think the positive stuff they'd agree with. I don't know where all the negative stuff came from. I guess I just feel like I don't live up to all the convaluted stick figure standards of modern society. I see myself that way, and that way only so I don't know how accurate they are. None of them are as important to me as my friends and my softball team and my swimming friends and my Senseis in karate. TO get rid of them I just tell myself that I'm me and I'm not going to change for anyone.

OK so here are my positive beleifs.....i think i am funny,athletic,pretty nice person,i smile alot, and a pretty dang good friend.
And now here come my lovely negative belifs
i think i dont wear the "right" clothes,say the right things all the time,not very bright all the time,and too skinny
And ussually i dont thik about my negative beleifs but this post really made me think that i carry these things along with me everywhere and its not good. I really would hope that my friends wouldnt agree with my negative list and maybe even my positive list and tell me what i am and how others see my because in the end who you are is how others see you and thats the truth. I think my negative beleifs come from my peers and teachers mostly because i can tell you that my family never judges excpet on occasion with grades. I really dont know how accurate my beleifs are but I hope someone can tell me and really i dont think my negative belifs should matter at all but they always find away to come back to me once i get rid of them;i dont know how to get rid of these beleifs soooo if you wanna help me out take your best shot!

for me i feel like im funny, semi atheltic,smart about somethings, pretty good at building and taking apart stuff..

the bad things about me is...im stubborn, easily anoyyed,i get mad about little things that shouldent matter, i sometimes lie...i dont do the same things other people do(bikeing) i was to lazy to play baseball or football or anything along those lines..people say im mean to certain people even though i try to be nice its just some people take jokes to far...i take jokes to far(if i ever hurt anyones feelings please just tell me..i dont try to be mean) im a obnoxious person sometimes..very messy

i guess these beliefs come from people telling me that sometimes jokingly sometimes not. i try to stay down to earth because i dont want to come off cocky to anyone im just a guy who sees life as your only going to live once so live it up...
i have tried to change lately and my friends have said that i have deffiantly changed for the better and im just trying to be me...no masks, no covering up, just being me

I think that i am nice, friendly,helpful, polite, reliable, happy, and a good person. my negative things are my hair is too thick, i hate my teeth, i want to be more confident in myself,i cry easily, i can be a drma queen at times, and i can say things without thinking first. i think that my friends would agree with the positves and probably not the negatives. but i dont know if they would just say that to make me feel better or they actually meaning it. so tell me what you think. I dont think that they dont really matter that much so i try to just forget about that but when people bring them up to my face, they come right back up and like i said, i cry. Like about my teeth. When i got made fun of in school about my teeth being like not all the same shape or something i came home crying to my mom begging her to let me get them reshaped. Of course shes not going to let me so im just trying to overcome it. And i dont really know how to get rid of them so like jess packard said, i need some advice.

ok. first off i just wannna say that i think this is the best blog yet because it really makes you think and i think i have discovered a lot more about me.

My positive beliefs:I am nice, have a great family, smart(at times), and funny(to people who know me)

heres where we get to the real list. my negatives: I am not pretty. I am not smart all the time,i get irritated fast, people say im bipolar and have ocd. I have no self esteem. I am not athletic. i am scared of everything including people, life but mostly myself. I hate my hair. i hate my teeth. i have no life. i hardly have any friends (maybe im not friendly enough) i could loose a couple pounds.. i put myslef down constintly. I am scared to talk sometimes because of what might come out by accident, i am nervous all the time, and many more... that i cant name.

I think that my friends would agree with the positive things but not with the negative at all. and i dont know how to fix my "problems"

ok so here are my positives: im sweet,friendly,polite,honest,reliable, sometimes sensible,helpful,caring and loving

and then the negatives:i can be stubborn and bossy sometimes, im not pretty, i hate my big teeth, i could lose a few pounds or more....
my legs are to muscular, my hair doesnt part right, my nail polish can never manage to stay on more than 3 days without beginning to chip, my eyes are oddly shaped, my feet are two small and im just an all around small person and i don't have a life because it is all taken up by working at the farm. i practically live there.

I think my friends would agree with my list for positives because i show all of them constantly but my negatives i try to hide as much as i can.

I see my self as an athletic kid, im a good friend, i think i can be funny at sometimes, i think im a caring person. Im definetly immature, not all the time but i mean im a kid. And im not upset about it at all.

Now i think i can be real stupid at times. LIke i say some pretty stupid things at the wrong time.In better terms i dont think before i speak. Like there was a situation in Camp Ocky. and i really dont wanna say it but like i was like wow did i just say tht.
IM kinda in like a writers block. or a blog entry block? I cant think really of much elses to say.. srry

My positives- I like to think myself as a friendly person, helpful to people, smile a lot, funny, and a good friend(:
&My Negatives-
WELL, I'm not the pretty, I can take thinks really personally, over think a lot, I think when people give me a compliment that there just being sarcastic, I hate my hair, I always think people are talking about me, I put myself down a lot, LACK IN CONFIDENCE, not a lot of people like me (for a reason..that I have no idea what it is), something I think my friends just hang out with me because they pity me, and I tend to think that nothing can go right for me.
Wow...That's kind of sad...
I think my friends would agree with some of them on there and others...they would probably beat me. (:
The negative beliefs come from past situations I have been in. When other kids do things or say things it makes me think how long it will go on for and all these questions pop up in my head...and this is where the over thinking comes into play. Then, when it's in there...it just stays.
My self esteem gets higher whenever I have a good day. Like Last week, my was in such a good mood because nothing bad had happened, which made my self esteem higher. Also my friends make it higher as well, they make me feel like they WANT to be around me and not embarrassed which makes me feel good. However, when I was having that good week, the whole time I was thinking "Something bads gonna happen..Im Hayley..Its gotta be soon." Which does ruin it a little, but then...I remember my friends and I just can't help to smile(:

-Hayley

Also...Jules, Bridget, Autumn. You guys are sooo pretty, I envy you. haha. You DEFINITLY don't have to be worried about that area(:

I think my positives are making others laugh, trying to be nice to others at all times,happy,and polite.My negatives are my legs and arms, I have a low self esteem sometimes, and I don't know how to stick up for myself.I think my friends would agree with my postives, and the negative that I need to learn how to stick up for myself.I think everyone has negatives and there not going to go away like if you think you would be better off skinny and you lose weight your weight is the only thing that has changed not your happiness.I am happy being me!!

Some positives i see in myself is i'm humble, athletic, have a good sence of outdoors and nature, i can be smart if i want to be, i'm good at understanding how things work, i'm a nice friend.
Some negatives are i think im to hard on myself sometimes. For example-If im playing baseball and i strikeout or miss a groundball i'll let it sit on my shoulders sometimes and let it ruin the rest of my day, also to try not to be as mean to my bro, sometimes i'm lazy and never feel like doing anything.
I think my friends and family see almost exactly what i just explained up above. I really dont care how others see me because i think i'm perfect just the way i am.

My positives: im smart, im athletic, im a pretty good kid, im funny, and uhh i am good at listening to people's problems
My negatives: im abnoxious, im afraid of snake and spiders(if that even is a negative?), i watch wayyyy to much tv, im a weekling, and i can be rude at times

I would believe that my friends would agree with my positives and negatives. My negatives probably come from my friends and myself. i think that these negative beliefs are accurate, and they arent important to me because i dont really care about how people percieve me. And i dont think i need to get rid of them because they are what make me, me.

ook so positives: i think i can be funny at times, laugh alot, caring, athletic, and outgoing. Negatives: i can be annoying, dont think im that pretty, im really...loud. well not really in school but around my friends and at home i am. my teeth are like..fat. my nose is messed up. i dont even know what happened.. i think i might have broken it. I dont think that my friends would agree with my negatives, but hopefully they would agree with the positives. I dont think that negative beliefs come from yourself. i think people get so caught up in what they hear other people say. To get rid your negative beliefs i just think that you.. shouldnt believe them. You have to think more positive about yourself. Your positive beliefs are what can make you a better person. Negatives just tear you down.

Some positives are that I am, artistict, athletic, smart, smiley, bubbly (most of the time),funny at times, I like to be the leader not the follower, and outgoing. I also think that I am awesome hehe.(: I don't really know other than that. Now my negatives are, I get irritated/annoyed really fast and that brings out my dark side hehe. I am not always nice, I am mean at times because I just get fed up with alot of things. Also my hieght thats one thing that I CAN NOT stand getting made fun of and I think thats about it. I think my freinds would most likely agree with my list because they know how I am, well they should atleast alittle, hehe. Anyways my negatives aren't really coming from anywhere I just notice these things about me, but there is one thing just because I am small. I already know that I am small, you don't have to tell me or remind me because by now, it's just getting old and annoying. I think I am pretty acurate, I am not really sure. If anyone would like to answer that for me I would be more then glad (: including my negatives though and I won't mind AT ALL!!! I think they are pretty important because they describe me, my personality, the person I am. Also, the one or two things I would like to change are my meaness and me getting irrataiteed verry easily. I feel bad when I get mad and mean, although alot of teachers don't see it in me, its just something that comes out like the tiger in me, hahaha. All I want to do is just be a bit nicer but still have a backbone to stand up for myself thats all. How to change it? I really truelly don't know the answer to that one.

I see myself as smart but not in books... but in common sence, caring, happy and lucky. My friends know how obnoxious and hyper I can be and they don't really think much of it because it's me, and they always know when somethings bothering with out even saying anything. However, when im mad or upset I get annoyed with every little thing that goes on... which is badddd. I start taking things out on other people and giving attitude. I think that everybody has opinions about themselves... wether they're good or bad. I know for a fact that everybody pulls themselves down, but I'm not really sure why. We all have something special about ourselves, even if it's just making people laugh. You don't have to be perfect at everything to succeed in being yourself. I wish I could say that everybody will get over those negative things, because it doesn't help but we probably won't. That's because of the people surrounding us, we're all ourselves in mr.g and ms.carrs class but once we step out it's right back to the "real" world. Plus most of the time the things we think about ourself isn't seen by other people. But, when a physical feature is pointed out... they take that one flaw and make it the biggest deal. Now that can lower a self esteem, because everyone wants to "fit in". The truth is, EVERYONES trying to fit in.

Some positive beliefs that i have about myself are that I'm smart, funny, kind, and have great friends. Some negative beliefs that i have about myself though are that i am not confident in myself and i take in to heart to much what people say about me. I definitely think that my friends would agree with my list. Honestly, i think that i get my negative beliefs from people in our grade. People have said stuff about me that i sometimes take to heart and then i think about it and just think how i have to change that, but i really don't know where i got my low confidence factor. I think that they are pretty accurate beliefs. I think they are pretty important to get rid of. I don't want to always be thinking about what people say about me, i need to just get over that and forget about it. And with my low confidence... i need to build more confidence. To get rid of these negative beliefs i think i need to switch it around and have high confidence and not care what people say about me.

There are positive and negative beliefs that i see about myself. To start with the positive, I am a happy person, I have great friends, I am friendly, and I am pretty smart. Now for the NEGATIVES, I have too thin hair, it never goes the way i want it(my hair i mean), I have very low confidence, and like Bridget, sometimes I blurt out things without thinking about it, which gets annoying. I think that my friends would agree with all my positives, and maybe some parts of the negatives, I don't really know. But I can deffinetely change this if i really try. I would much rather have higher confidence, but idk if i can change my hairs thickness haha!

Autumn and Hailey, you guys are both beautiful, and you guys should know that. Same thing to every other girl and guy up here who don't think they're good looking. Hailey, yeah your nose has a bump. But that marks you as Hailey Garthwaite, and you wouldn't be yourself if you weren't loud well once again you just would be my same best friend!

Well for me my positives: I think I'm pretty decent at soccer, I can be funny at times, I'm caring, and I'd say im a nice girl. For my negatives: I hold back sometimes, I shy away when i want to be outgoing, I dont find myself pretty, I dont like my eyes (i think they are too dark)..., and I don't think before i talk sometimes. I would hope that my friends would agree with my lists, because i think they are pretty accurate. My negative beliefs, well i think i judge myself too much. For some reason I tend to put myself down and only focus on the negatives. I think i should start looking at the positive side of me instead of emphasizing the negatives in my mind.

Autumn and Hailey, you guys are both beautiful, and you guys should know that. Same thing to every other girl and guy up here who don't think they're good looking. Hailey, yeah your nose has a bump. But that marks you as Hailey Garthwaite, and you wouldn't be yourself if you weren't loud well once again you just would be my same best friend!

Well for me my positives: I think I'm pretty decent at soccer, I can be funny at times, I'm caring, and I'd say im a nice girl. For my negatives: I hold back sometimes, I shy away when i want to be outgoing, I dont find myself pretty, I dont like my eyes (i think they are too dark)..., and I don't think before i talk sometimes. I would hope that my friends would agree with my lists, because i think they are pretty accurate. My negative beliefs, well i think i judge myself too much.

For the negatives, I always think i'm fat, I take critism wayyy to much, I can be really annoying, I'm not pretty, I am the most uncoordinated person alive I must trip like 495893 times a day just by tripping over my own feet, allot of little things annoy me, I make habits of things easily and not always good habits, I keep things bottled up inside, I change how I act because of what other people don't like, I'm more dependant on the people I hang out with then I'd like to be, I don't always make the best decesions. For the positives, When I'm in a good mood I can make people laugh really easily, I'm like obsessive with cleaning witch is good and bad, and I can hide my emotions almost all the time.

Emilee, are you out of your minddddd! Your just like Hailey with thinking your not pretty, and franklyyyyy I don't approve! Your gorgiousss and you shouldn't put yourself down like that. Hmmmm... and I don't agree you are shy when you want to be outgoing. Your veryyyy outgoing and thats the Emilee we all know. The Emilee that I see everydayyyy is energetic, always thinking of other people before yourself and the best thing is that you don't care what people think. Well, at least that's what I thinkkk! If I hear one more girl say they don't find themselves pretty I am going to personally slap them across the faceee haha.

Kelsey, your beautifullllll! I warned the next girl who said they weren't pretty that I'd slap them personally... I'll let you slide haha. But, you really need to stop worrying about the small things because your one of the people somebody should look up tooooo. Your strong, pretty, funny, outgoing most of the time and very easy to trust. Now, one of your positives isn't really positive... holding in your emotions is neverrrr a good thing to do. It bottles things up and if that ever happens you know you've got me and everybody else to talk to... and we'lll hellppppp because we love you so dearlyyy haha(:

p.s. I'm with Emileeee, I trip every day over my own feeet... infact today I did and Mr.M saw me and laughhhed!
