I’m on my way!! :)
How I did it: Well I just thought about what I liked about myself!-and then everytime I thought of something I'd write it in my diary. At first it is difficult to think of things but eventually you'll get there!
I think this is a really useful exercise in learning to be happy with yourself and being more positive in general.
-I'm happy that I now have a complete list so I can look at it whenever I'm feeling down and remember I am a good person after all! -I'm glad I came across this idea of 43 Things!
Lessons & tips: Don't try and write the list in one sitting-it's much easier if you do it gradually!

But I feel it’ll be much harder to complete.
Yay! I’ve got 60 now-Over half way through!!-Can’t believe it! :)
I’ve got 20 so far-I’m struggling to think of any more if I’m honest…
I’m going to try this although it’s not going to be easy for me-I’m naturally an extremely negative person-and 100 things is a lot but I think completing this task will help me with a lot of my goals!
I’m going to write this list in my journal (Along with my “100 things that make me happy”) and then look at it whenever I’m feeling down and need to remember that I am a good person!!

Having confidence didn’t used to come naturally to me. I do have fairly low self-esteem at times so at time this makes me want to hold back… however I always make sure that I throw myself into things, and the best way to do that is with a wave of confidence!
If you tell yourself you’re really confident, then you end up acting that way. :)
I love meeting new people and throwing myself into new situations, and I don’t think I’d love it quite so much if I didn’t feel confident! (Plus, it’s always more fun than being shy!!)xx x x

I love that I’m a strongly motivated person with great ambitions (short and long term) that I strive to fulfil.
When I decide I want to do something, I continue thinking about how to go about it, exploring different ideas and then I just plunge in!!
(This normally means I lose out on a lot of sleep!!)
I’m so very pleased I have this in my character, as it means I always feel like I’m doing something worthwhile and making a difference somehow! :)
Well done me. :)

I’m not trying to seek pity by saying that this is going to be a difficult goal. 100 things are a lot, but I know it is necessary if I am ever going to break through my wall of insecurity to really concentrate on viewing myself positively. So here goes nothing.
1.) I love to analyze. I can turn over a situation about 50,000 times in my head and look at it from that many angles. I am more than willing to rehash out any topic of debate with anyone for countless hours.
2.) I am aggressive. I strongly stand behind my beliefs and those I love and won’t hesitate to defend them in any situation. Not to mention I’m a killer rugby player.
3.) I can sing. In fact, I love singing. I love music, especially acoustic singer/songwriters, and I pride myself in keeping away from talentless mainstream music marketed simply for its entertaining illicit content.
4.) I can write one heck of a letter. I recently hand wrote a full fifteen page letter to a former boyfriend spilling my guys about the distance between he and I over the past few years, just to communicate that I miss his friendship. I was completely uninhibited, completely vulnerable, and actually sent it. What’s to come of it is still up in the air, but my conscience is pretty clear at this point.
5.) I’m a passionate, all or nothing woman. I either put 110% of myself into something, or I don’t do it at all. Hence my hesitation to make commitments.
Well, there’s 5/100. I’m on my way.

Done as a subgoal over here, under learn to like myself more.
PS. This was also the 100th thing I’ve done here. Quite fitting. :)
16. I have a positive outlook on life
I believe whole-heartedly in trying to make the most of a situation and never forgetting how truly priveledged I am.
17. I’m outspoken
I’m not afraid to speak up for myself and what I believe in.
