I bet the second was harder. It's so hard to think good about yourself. Why that is, who knows. Personally I sometimes (most times) don't feel deserving of compliments. Sometimes I think I am being conceited to even compliment myself, even though only I know about it. The brain is funny that way.

I was talking with my roommate earlier about this. I think it is a good thing to always have something you like about yourself. No matter how small. I can look at my face in the mirror and just think about what I hate, but I always fall back on liking my nose. Weird? Maybe, but that's a little comfort for me, a victory. I can think "My chin does not fit my face, but I have a cute nose.

I recommend taking time right now to make a list of things you like about yourself. Hold onto them and next time you're feeling down think of them. Remember the good and be proud, even if it is just your nose.
