And yet, on the outside at least, both apples looked perfect. “I picked up the apple Id dropped on t
19、he floor and started to tell the children how I disliked this apple, and that I thought it was disgusting, it was a horrible colour and the stem was just too short,“ Dutton wrote.She then encouraged the students to do the same. Some of the children looked at her like she was “crazy”, but the student
20、s passed the apple around the circle, calling it names.Continuing the exercise, the teacher then passed the second apple around the circle. This apple, however, was showered with comments like: “Your skin is beautiful,“ and “what a beautiful colour you are.“Dutton then showed the students both apple

22、 What we saw inside that apple, the bruises, the mush and the broken bits is what is happening inside every one of us when someone mistreats us with their words or actions.“Dutton explained how important it is to teach children to stand up for one another, and to stop any form of bullying.“Lets crea

27、s and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics, but sometimes its a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.Self-image is your own minds picture
28、 of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way
29、 you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Dont allow doubts to oc
30、cur in it.It might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you cant move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think youre silly because you arent good at math, find a tutor. If you th

37、our heart pumping much faster, which means exercise becomes more difficult and requires more effort.

38、inking more to replace it? Well, its easier than you think. When we are at rest, we quickly become aware that we are thirsty and will put that right by having a drink.
