2. Ask others what they recognize in you

2. Ask others what they recognize in you

It can be hard to see ourselves in a positive light if we are used to focusing on the negatives. Asking others for their support can help us recognize talents we were not even aware of and stop looking at our strengths as something we take for granted. Other people can help us see who we are in a new light.

Another person can point out things that we would never see and help us gain a new perspective on who we are. However, make sure you ask those who know you well and who want to help you. Steer clear of people who like to put others down.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
