LIFE IS FULL OF EVENTS THAT ARE BEYOND OURCONTROL – OFTEN EVENTS THAT ARE

DIFFICULT OR HURTFUL, BUT WE DO HAVE CONTROL OVER

OUR RESPONSES TO THESE EVENTS

-Don’t let others make you feel down.

Keep your own self-esteem high

~How we feel about ourselves is key~

it’s called SELF-ESTEEM

TAKE THE SELF-ESTEEM SURVEY

Page 5: IMPROVING SELF-ESTEEM Self-Esteem Day 1 Self-Esteem Day 1

Set a specific, measurable goal to improve your self-esteem:

get up everyday and say “It’s a great day”

choose to enjoy life

put yourself up *****(positive self-talk)*****

put those around you up

think positive every night just before sleeping

don’t hang out with negative people!

baby step out of your shyness! Take risks!!

don’t compare yourself to others!! (see your good points)

Page 6: IMPROVING SELF-ESTEEM Self-Esteem Day 1 Self-Esteem Day 1

Are we born with self-esteem,

or is it shaped in us???

Page 7: IMPROVING SELF-ESTEEM Self-Esteem Day 1 Self-Esteem Day 1

WE’RE NOT BORN WITH SELF-ESTEEM.

DOES A LITTLE BABY THINK, “I HOPE NO ONE SMELLS MY DIRTY DIAPER…OR…”I HOPE NO ONE WILL LAUGH AT MY BALD HEAD.”

IT IS SHAPED AS WE GROW UP.

WHO AND WHAT SHAPES IT???

Page 8: IMPROVING SELF-ESTEEM Self-Esteem Day 1 Self-Esteem Day 1

WHO SHAPES IT?

parents other family members siblings teachers classmates friends self neighbors, church, other people in our lives media: T.V., movies, video games,

magazines…

Page 9: IMPROVING SELF-ESTEEM Self-Esteem Day 1 Self-Esteem Day 1

So, if we aren’t born with itthat means we can change it !

(if it’s low)

Page 10: IMPROVING SELF-ESTEEM Self-Esteem Day 1 Self-Esteem Day 1

WHEN IT COMES TO THOUGHTS, YOU HAVE A LOT OF MIND CONTROL!! YOUR BODY LISTENS

AND RESPONDS TO YOUR THOUGHTS!!!!  

Your mental self-talk can be:

P O S I T I V E or N E G A T I V E

2 examples:

1. In Sports Psychology an athlete is taught to stay positive, to stay calm, be focused, be confident, to “see yourself as awinner,” and to “picture the ball going in the hole.” Many athletes find success with this positive thinking and imagery.  2. In relaxation therapy you imagine a place or event that is peaceful, restful, beautiful and happy. The body actually responds with lower blood pressure, lower pulse rate to calm down and relax.

Page 11: IMPROVING SELF-ESTEEM Self-Esteem Day 1 Self-Esteem Day 1

Just as making positive statements to yourself helps you to build confidence, improve performance, and improve your mental skills,

negative thinking damages them.

Page 12: IMPROVING SELF-ESTEEM Self-Esteem Day 1 Self-Esteem Day 1

Whatever you tell yourself, your sub-conscious brain will believe as truth and it will work to make that true for you !!!

For instance, if you say you aren’t a morning person your sub-conscious brain will reinforce that idea! You may feel tired, hit the “snooze bar” and spill things, etc.

Page 13: IMPROVING SELF-ESTEEM Self-Esteem Day 1 Self-Esteem Day 1

Example: If you were taught as a child that all dogs will bite you, your mind will automatically raise that fear everytime you see a dog. (even though your friend tells you that their dog is friendly, your mind believes and sends the fear message! You have to re-train your brain!!!)

Self Esteem Homework Choose 1 of the following: 1. Create a poster that shows how self-esteem is damaged and how it can be improved. It

can be drawn or you can use magazine pictures and words, or things printed from online (don’t forget to site it if you get it online)

  2. Create a poster about helping a friend who has low self-esteem. Show how this could lead

to drug and alcohol use, and other dangerous decisions.

  3. Create a Power Point presentation on self-esteem (why it’s important, how it gets

damaged, and how to improve it)

  4. Research and then write a 3 page report about the importance of positive self-esteem.

  5. Create a tri-fold brochure for teens about self-esteem. The booklet should be 6 pages and

include information about what self esteem is, how it is formed, how it can be damaged, and ways to improve it.

the struggle to have good self esteem, or a message about facing a loss and how teens can overcome the hurt they are feeling. (You will not need to perform it, but can get 10 extra credit points if you do)
