YOU

What makes you you? How do you know you are not someone else, or even several other people. Each of us is different, but our identity is how we see ourselves. It is a unique combination of values and characteristics that is very similar to many other people, but not the same.

For instance, I am a sister, a nature lover, a citizen of the world, a blogger and stubborn.
There might be several others out there who share all these attributes, but my unique identity also includes hundreds or thousands of other attributes, and in most cases those attributes are not identical anyway. For instance, I love to hike and I like to camp, but another nature lover might prefer bird-watching.

Our identity is not just in what characteristics we have but also in how we value each one.
Our self-identity involves what we see as important and as key to whowe are. For instance, my self-identity does not include being stubborn. I know I am, but that's just not part of my vision of whoI am and who I want to be.What is your self-identity.

If you are challenged with self-esteem issues, it is important to define your self-image and self-identity so that you can revisit that identity in moments of weakness.

Be who you are and know who you are.
