I’m sure that if I asked you to give me a list of 10 negative attributes about yourself, you could hand that list to me in about 10 seconds. It takes most of us more time to think about the positive attributes that we have.
Why is this? Do we find ourselves embarrassed, vain or immodest to think about the positive characteristics that we possess? Do we think that others might think we have a big ego if we dare to admit the positive things about
ourselves? Are we concerned that people might find us conceited if we share the GOOD things that make us who we are? Are we afraid to admit these things even to ourselves?
“A man is by the product of his thoughts; what he thinks, he becomes.”
~ Mahatma Gandhi
Look inside yourself, dig deep if you need to and write a list of 10 positive attributes about yourself. Create a page showcasing these 10 attributes. You can choose to use your 10 attributes as your only journaling or you can choose to write even more and incorporate these attributes into your journaling. You can even expand on these attributes by adding definitions of these attributes, sharing how you feel about them, perhaps sharing about another family member that shares them. Don’t be afraid to be positive about yourself.
Grab your notebook that you put aside specially for this course and write a list of your 10 positive attributes.
Now that you have your assignment, here's an additional challenge. It's entirely up to you if you want to take on the challenge. Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to use tags for your attributes.
