F2F Class Notes 13th August (Ben)

In the past few days, I have followed the Olympic Games

It’s a POPular sport in China.
In Europe, it is popular, but it isn’t AS popular (as in China)

FOOTball

I like to follow the sports I practice, because I know them and their rules.

I do a lot of sport –> Me too.

I don’t do a lot of sport –>Me neither

There aren’t so many women who are like me.

all, a wall, a war, woman

will, with, women

How to build confidence

In which settings

Many parents belittle and shame their children.

They aren’t used to encouraging their children.

Then many children lack confidence in their skills, their studies, their ability to feel loved. They believe the love they get is only related to their achievements. So, it’s not unconditional love.

How can you build self-confidence?

Everyone has a natural talent for something. 天生我材必有用

You need to set boundaries. 设立界线

At the root of personal boundary issues is fear. (Isn’t that the root of most issues?) It’s the fear we won’t be loved, that we aren’t good enough or deserving enough just as we are.

Low self-confidence can be linked to fear of failure or fear of other peoples’ opinions

Failure is the mother of success. 失败是成功之母
