Quiz: What Is Your Sense of Self Worth?
By Cheryl Saban, Intent
The first step in acknowledging and accessing your worth, value, and
sense of fulfillment, is to take an honest personal assessment. Set
aside some quiet time where you can have privacy and think. Take your
journal, notebook or diary and a pen, and ask yourself the following
questions:
• Am I happy?
• What gives me joy?
• What contributions do I make?
• Do I feel acknowledged for the contributions I make?
• Are my relationships fulfilling?
• Do I nurture and enjoy my relationships?
• Am I achieving goals that I set for myself?
• Do my activities and lifestyle contribute to my sense of worth and well-being?
• Do I take personal responsibility for my actions?
• Does something or someone else dictate how I should feel or act?
You may be reassured by the answers you give, or you may find that
you need to focus more on certain areas in your life. Whatever the
responses you have to the questions above, reflect on them. What do
they mean for you? How will you take ownership of your feelings,
accomplishments and life so that you can progress and grow? This series
focuses on being your best self. In my next post, I’ll give you ways to
connect with your talents and strengths.
“Throughout this series, my intent is to provide visitors with
information and exercises designed to guide women to define their own
self-worth, take responsibility for it and then to pass it on to
others. I will introduce the concept of self-worth and explore how to
apply it to various areas of women’s lives, including love, sex and
intimacy, finances and motherhood. And finally, I will provide ideas of
how to give back to your fellow women.” -Cheryl Saban
