Having a positive mindset can be challenging because not everyone finds it easy to recognize their own worth. While it takes practice, many people still work hard to change their thoughts and build their confidence before they can say they are proud of who they are.
The "I Am An Amazing Person" Worksheet is a resource that boosts clients’ self-esteem by encouraging them to acknowledge their strengths and embrace their uniqueness. Through targeted questions, they can reflect on their happy memories, values, and actions that have helped others. The worksheet features playful designs, such as clouds and rainbows to create a positive and fun atmosphere.
With this worksheet, kids, students, or anyone struggling with low self-esteem can also learn to appreciate their progress and growth, which helps them build resilience. To further boost their self-esteem and self-awareness, they can spend a few minutes each day to write down something they are proud of or a new insight about themselves.
Adults caring for them can encourage them to create a visual gratitude board filled with photos, quotes, or drawings that highlight their strengths and happy moments. Moreover, they can help in creating an "amazing jar" where kids write down kind things they do or positive compliments they receive.
