STEP #1
Read the following:
On the website http://wow4U.com, a story is told of a speaker who held up a twenty dollar bill in front of a crowd and asked who would like to have the crisp, clean bill. Ofcourse, hands went up across the room. The speaker proceeded to crumble the money into the palm of his hand. Knowing that the money was now a wrinkled mess, the speaker posed the same question to the group, and still hands from across the room remained raised in the air.
During the next visual display, the speaker dropped the twenty-dollar bill to the floor, took his foot, and stomped on the money, trying to make it as dirty as possible. “Now, who wants this money?” the speaker asked. As with the two previous questions, many hands still signified a desire for the money. The speaker explained to the audience the lesson learned from this exercise. No matter what he did to the twenty-dollar bill, it did not lose value.
Explain: The same can be illustrated in our lives. We all have a value. Regardless of what obstacles or problems we may face, whether we fall and become dirty, make mistakes, or fail at a business or project, our value of who we are does not decrease.
Don’t let failures or trials deflate your value in your mind. Remember, you’re still unique and priceless in your own way.
Have your team write a brief statement on the blank piece of paper: one to three positive characteristics about themselves. Encourage them to carry this paper with them and look at it daily over the next several weeks. This exercise will help them remember their positive attributes and traits.
Quote: Walt Disney said that the more we like ourselves, the less we are like anyone else, which makes us unique.
