BELIEVING IN

YOURSELF
 SELF-CONFIDENCE
 SELF-IMAGE
 RESPECT
 SELF-TALK
SELF-CONFIDENCE , belief
in your worth and abilities as
a person, is the key to success.
If you have confidence in
yourself and feel accepted
by others, you will be able
to face each day with a
positive outlook.
Your SELF-IMAGE is the
way you see yourself.
SELF-IMAGE
 Your self-image depends on your everyday
relationships.
 If you get negative feedback from your friends, family,
and teachers, you will most likely have a negative self-
image.
 When the people you see every day give you
supportive feedback, you develop a positive self-
image— that is, you like who you are.
 We all have a need to belong, to be connected to
someone or something positive.
RESPECT
Consideration for and acceptance
of ourselves and others,
including other people’s
property, backgrounds, and
opinions.
 Self-image is directly linked to respect. A
positive self-image is possible only if you
have respect for yourself as well as for
others.

 Self-confidence also improves as you


learn to appreciate and understand other
people’s personalities. No two people are
exactly alike.
 In choosing your friends, you
probably select people whose likes
and dislikes are similar to your own.
But to maintain those friendships,
you must recognize and respect the
many ways in which your friends
are different from you.
SELF-Talk
 Positive talk must begin with one
person, and that person is you. Believe
in yourself.
 To have a good self-image, you have to
believe in your abilities.
 The mental comments and opinions we
repeat to ourselves constantly.
 It is up to you to put forth positive
thoughts about yourself.
 If you give yourself negative thoughts each
day, then all you will have are negative
thoughts—about yourself and others.
 When you constantly put yourself down,
everything probably seems to go wrong
—from schoolwork to friendships to
your life at home.
In theatre, you will find concepts and
activities that will help you feel good
about yourself. With a stronger self-
image, you may have a greater desire
to learn and accept responsibility. You
will also have more fun while
participating in all the subjects you are
required to take.
ACTION
Positive Self-Reminders
 Every day, read the positive journal entries
that you write about yourself to remind
yourself of what a special person you are.
Keep adding positive statements to your
journal. Try to become aware of those times
in your daily life when you use negative
self-talk so that you can guard against it in
the future.
SELF-COLLAGE
 Make a list of some of your likes, dislikes, and traits
that make you the unique individual that you are. Next,
choose materials for a collage (a collection of pictures
and words from magazines or other printed material).
The pictures and words that you choose should reflect
your personality. Bring your collage materials to
school. Then cut and glue them to a poster board (you
may use part of the board or the whole piece). Be
creative with the shapes you cut, overlapping the
pictures in different directions. Use captions to reflect
your personality. Keep the activity positive! You can
laminate your collage as a classroom decoration or for
your own room at home.
POSITIVE BACK TALK.
 Each person in class should tape a piece of paper
on his or her back. Everyone should walk around
the room and with a pencil write a positive
comment on the paper of each classmate. It is not
necessary to sign your name. Keep the comments
positive! After the activity, take your “back talk”
sheet off your back and read it to build your self-
confidence. Follow up on this activity by making
a journal entry on what surprised you most on
your sheet.
