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: 1. When I am facing a challenge and I am not sure that I can be successful, I like to talk to others who have been in a similar challenge. I like to get feedback on what they struggled with and how they handled it which will encourage me to learn from others nd understand that others have struggled and still succeeded. It helps me feel like "I can do this".
2. If I am struggling I sometimes write down the exact things I feel are contributing to my struggle and then write down things I feel I am doing well in, from there I figure out how to better myself and slowly have more things on the "good" side, making me feel more confident.
3. Sometimes I go straight to a source, such as a teacher, boss, etc. and I talk to them about my concerns. Because sometimes I could be making it more challenging than it is, or I could be very hard on myself when it is not needed. |
