Values and Self-Image

Determining why we believe about ourselves the way we do takes a lot of introspection.  Like many people, I have spent a lot of time using negative evaluations to shape how I felt about myself and what I do with my life.  This course shed light on how to reshape my thoughts about myself and gave me some ideas how to become more positive and goal-oriented about my future.  The reading list gave different author's perspectives on how to do this.  Viewing two movies about people who went through the process of self-re-evaluation and moving forward really opened my thinking up to the possibilies. I feel  like I can move in a more positively affirming direction with my life after this class.
