Essay: Imagine that you are facing a challenge and you are not sure you can be successful. Name three things you could do to raise your belief in yourself. Student Answer: First, I would talk to my friends, family, and colleagues. I can discuss that challenge I am facing and see where I could grow in attempting the task. Then, I would break the challenge down and think of what is being asked of me. I would think of tasks needed to be accomplished to set myself up for success. Then, I would assess my negativity toward myself. Why am I feeling negative thoughts? Are there different ways to cope that might help me build confidence in my abilities? Communicating with others, breaking down a problem, and thinking mentally are important ways to raise belief in myself. |
