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

Especially when the homeless face being arrested for sleeping in parks, or worse beaten by gangs of teenage boys for simply BEING homeless. (attacks on the homeless have been on the rise in recent years...including a lot of people beaten or burned to death.Very fulfilling).I don't know of any of them who ask themselves 'Do I feel acknowledged for my contributions?' or 'Do I nurture and enjoy my relationships?'. They ask where would it be safe for me to sleep tonight? Is the shelter full? Will the soup kitchen have room for me tonight?
According to your argument the way to have a peaceful fulfilling life is to become poor. Why don't you guys try it for a month or so and let me know how that works out. I'll tell you it ain't really working for ME.

I agree, the poor are sometimes happier than the rich. In a "happiness" survey, it was found that the Philippines is happier than Hong Kong. While the poor have much simpler lives, happiness is not always derived from material wealth.

Anne Lacroix, that is not true. Even poor people can reflect that their lifestyle choices, including their food, their work, their activities, their parenting choices, their relationships, are consistent with their beliefs and values. Poor people can still have happy and fulfilling lives.

This is very nice for wealthy and middle class people with enough time and money to do serious navel gazing but what good is it to someone who is desperately poor or homeless?
