Self Image

The world all around us is always judging us. Our friends have their opinions about us too so these are a couple of factors that help create our self image, whether it be good or bad. For example, if the world says a really skinny girl is the trend and a beautiful young lady compares herself to that skinny girl then she is going to want to be like her so that is how the world has an influence on self image. What people think also is what determines who we are. They may say you're beautiful or you're fat or things like that and we take that into mind which develops either high or low self esteem. Our brain does not know when you are joking around or serious about what you say about yourself or what somebody else says about you. Self esteem and self image are important to us all. Let us always speak positive about ourselves and others and try and build each other up not tear each other down.

communications

Communication can be done through speaking words but 93% of communication is non verbal. Like said in our book, it's impossible not to communicate. Even if we think we aren't communicating, we actually are. Looking Out Looking In says, "Whatever you do--whether you speak or remain silent, confront or avoid, act emotional or keep a poker face--you provide information to others about your thoughts and feelings. In this sense we are like transmitters that can't be shut off. " This is so true. We don't even have to speak to convey our thoughts, we can do it simply through body language or gestures we send to other people
