What makes me unique?

Thinking positively about yourself — who you are and the things you can do — can help boost your self-esteem. You can print this page and use it to write great info just about you. Try keeping it in your locker, your notebook, or your bedroom to remind you of what makes you unique.

If you want to write whenever and wherever the mood hits, you also can use a cloud-based tool, like Google Docs.

Write and enjoy!
