Unit 1: Be a self-respecting and confident person
Lesson 1: Cherish priceless self-esteem
How would you feel when faced with the following situations?
My answers in class were very innovative, and my classmates couldn’t help but applaud me.
After hard work, my grades have improved, and the teacher praised me in public.
After careful consideration, I made a decision, but my parents laughed at me for no reason.
In the arts and crafts mall, I was treated coldly by the salesperson because I was a poor student.
Self-respect means self-respect, which means neither bowing to others nor allowing others to discriminate or insult.
It is a healthy and good mental state. It allows people to experience that they are valuable and needed, and this value is often recognized and appreciated by others.
Tell me about the thing you feel you are most dignified and proud of.
Refer to the ideas in the second box of P5 and complete this sentence according to your actual situation:
Although I , but .
In life, everyone may be inferior to others. As long as we are not discouraged, discouraged, or give up, believe in ourselves, and respect ourselves, we can find our own value in life, win the respect of others, and feel the joy of self-respect through further efforts!
Read the story of P6 Greenia and think about:
What will happen when a self-respecting person does inappropriate behavior or is even criticized by others for it? Feelings?
How does this sense of shame help a person grow?
What will happen if a person does not know shame?
Knowing shame is an important expression of self-esteem
A person who truly has self-esteem must be someone who knows shame. Knowing shame is an important expression of self-esteem. Only when you know your shame can you have self-respect. Only when you know your shame can you face up to your shortcomings and work hard to correct them, maintain a good self-image, win the respect of others, and feel the happiness of self-respect. And those who are shameless will never have self-respect.
But a heavy sense of shame is very detrimental to our growth. It can cause people to lose their self-confidence and lead to low self-esteem.
Treat your own shortcomings correctly
Read the three short stories in P8 and think:
Are the words and deeds of these three people a manifestation of self-esteem?
What psychology do you think prompted them to behave as shown in the picture?
What other manifestations of vanity are there in real life?
What harm does vanity do to us?
Vanity: distorted self-esteem
Vanity is a mentality that pursues superficial glory and brilliance.
Persons with high vanity often regard fame and wealth as the inner motivation to control their actions, and they always care about others' evaluation of themselves. So much so that they often cheat for the sake of fame and fortune, are unable to face up to their own shortcomings, and even try every means to cover them up, bringing a heavy psychological burden to themselves, and even commit crimes out of vanity.

Lesson 1: Cherish priceless self-esteem
Section 2: Respecting others is my need
The joy of self-esteem—a fragment of a junior high school student’s diary
I am so happy today! My math score really ranked first in the class! Looking at my father’s smiling face, Teacher Lin’s encouraging eyes, and Xiaoyan’s sincere blessings, I feel that all the hard work this semester has been worth it...
“Important Others” and Self-Esteem
Do you often feel the joy of self-esteem? This kind of happiness comes not only from self-affirmation, but also from the affirmation and encouragement of others, especially "important others."
Who is your “significant other”? Please tell me a story about a time when you felt the joy of self-esteem due to the appreciation and affirmation of an "important other".
In the years when we were growing up, we were often appreciated and affirmed by others, which filled us with the pride and joy of being a human being. Since our self-esteem is often protected and cared for by others, we naturally have the responsibility to pay attention to the self-esteem of others and maintain the dignity of others. Respecting others is a need for self-esteem and self-improvement.
Look at the four pictures on P10 and think:
The self-esteem of the protagonists in the pictures seems not to be taken care of by others. Can they blame others?
They cannot blame others. Because they did not respect others, did not pay attention to the dignity and feelings of others, and did things that harmed their own image and violated public ethics, it is impossible to win the respect of others.
Respecting others means respecting yourself
Respecting others means treating others as having the same need for self-respect as yourself. Everyone must feel self-esteem through the respect, appreciation, encouragement, and expectations of others. Respecting others allows you to be accepted by others, be treated well, and enjoy the happiness of self-respect with others. Just like being respected by others, respecting others is our need and our happiness.
Activity: Every word and action is about love
How do you respect, praise, encourage others, and maintain their self-esteem? Do you still remember the happiness and touch that your respect, praise and encouragement brought to others and to you? Please share your story of friendship with everyone.
1. The same self-esteem

Section 3: Respect each other to win respect
If you are this boy, stand in front of the principal What emotions and expectations do you feel while waiting outside the office?
How would you feel if the principal severely criticized and punished you indiscriminately?
Tao Xingzhi made the boy realize his mistake without using a word of criticism. Could you please analyze how he did it?
Be good at respecting others
The most basic expression of respecting others is to be polite to others, respect other people's work, and respect other people's personality.
To truly respect others, you must be good at standing in the other person's perspective, empathizing with others, and empathizing with others. First of all, we must be good at appreciating and accepting others; secondly, we must not do anything that damages the personality of others.
Some students in the class have been laughing at Lin Hua recently. Lin Hua comes from the suburbs and has a unique accent, especially when speaking English, but he speaks very enthusiastically; he is a bit dark, and because of his poor family background, he dresses simply and cannot afford extracurricular books, but he But he was cheerful all day long, saying things like "dark skin makes him more masculine" and "you can practice calligraphy by copying the questions" and so on. For this reason, many classmates laughed at him, but he never got angry, which made these classmates look down on him even more.
To respect others, we must first be good at appreciating and accepting others; secondly, we must not do anything that damages the personality of others.
Let us start by treating Lin Hua and learn to respect him.
The first step is to learn to appreciate and accept others. Please find Lin Hua's strengths and weaknesses and try to express your heartfelt praise in person.
The second step is not to do anything that damages the personality of others. Regarding the phenomenon of some classmates in the class laughing at Lin Hua, how would you take care of Lin Hua's self-esteem?
1. Some people say that Wu Lin’s behavior is a manifestation of self-esteem. He must not be merciful to others’ wrong evaluations and must fight back resolutely. what you think?
2. What attitude should we adopt towards discussion and criticism?
Maintaining personality is the most important
Three years ago, something happened in Shenzhen that shocked the whole country. In order to please a group of Japanese guests, a hotel owner actually asked his employee Li to kneel down to serve the Japanese guests. Li resolutely refused to treat guests, especially Japanese guests, even at the cost of losing his job.
Do you agree with Li’s approach? Why is he unwilling to kneel down to guests, especially Japanese guests, even if he loses his job?

Lesson 2: Raise the sail of confidence
Section 1 "I can do it!"
The style of a confident person
Three tips to quickly demonstrate confidence:
Stand up your chest
Raise your head and look straight at others (front)
Smile
Confidence is a person's belief in his or her own strength, the belief that one can accomplish something and achieve the goal one pursues.
Conceit is different from self-confidence
Conceit is blind self-belief. Arrogant people tend to overestimate themselves and the goals they pursue are simply impossible to achieve
Confidence is True self-confidence, confident people can look at themselves realistically, and the goals they pursue can be achieved
"Today's class meeting, the students raised their hands to speak. I stared at the written outline of the speech, I recited it silently twice, passed the writing test and the test test, and still had the courage to pass. Just then, a classmate finished speaking. I looked at the speech again and put my hand hanging on the edge of the bench. On the table, my heart was like fifteen buckets fetching water - up and down, as if... I raised my hand, but immediately put it to my face, and then quickly put my hand on the table Go up, at this moment, I feel that my hand weighs a thousand pounds, and it seems that I can’t lift it anymore..."
§2.1 "I can do it"
"I can do it" - self-confidence - the belief in one's own strength
(Know yourself correctly)
"I am the best" - conceited - overestimating yourself
p>
"I can't do it" - inferiority complex - despise yourself
Lesson 2: Raise the sail of confidence
Section 2: Self-confidence is the cornerstone of success
The school will hold a recitation contest, and Chinese teacher Li recommends Xiaohua, Xiaoqian and Xiaopeng to participate.
Xiaohua said: "I say second, no one dares to say first."
Xiao Ning thought: Xiaohua is a strong opponent, but as long as I prepare carefully, You will definitely get good results!
Xiao Peng found Teacher Li and said: "I can't do it, you should ask someone else."
As the competition approached, Xiao Hua hurriedly memorized the recitation manuscript; Xiao Qian had already prepared the manuscript After pondering over it many times, he recited the passages that were difficult to express over and over again; Xiaopeng braced himself to prepare for the competition, always feeling that it was useless to prepare any more.
The competition began. Xiaohua, who was favored by others, stumbled in her recitation due to insufficient preparation and did not get the ranking; Xiaopeng stood on the stage with a blank mind and had to give up the competition; Xiaoqian Breaking through her previous performance, she recited with great emotion and won second place. That day she wrote in her diary: I have surpassed myself again, I am so happy.
Facing new challenges
Facing difficulties and failures
Facing praise and encouragement
Confidence contributes to success
p>
Confidence is the cornerstone of success, because confident people have the psychological quality to pursue success. For example:
Optimism: Don’t give up easily and be full of hope for success.
Curiosity: Values ??the ability to solve problems.
Focus: Stay objective and give your best effort.
Strong, brave, modest, generous, consistent in words and deeds...
Jimmy Lin:
Integrated professional racing driver, singer, actor, entrepreneur, Taiwan Internet He is an important member of the association, as well as many official figures and public welfare spokespersons in the United States, Taiwan and Mainland China.
17-year-old Lin Zhiying became popular in the Chinese-speaking world within 2 months.
When he entered the military camp at the age of 19, he was treated maliciously by some unfriendly people because of his reputation, but he changed other people's opinions with his kindness and 100-percent score.
After retiring from the army, his acting career entered a low ebb, and his racing career also did not go well, but he was still sunny. At the age of 24, he had three broken bones in his right foot and four steel nails. But he joked: "From now on, my feet will become stronger, I can run faster and jump higher."
With his persistent efforts, 25-year-old Jimmy Lin returned to Taiwan's most valuable artist, setting a record of four consecutive wins in the annual Taiwan Supercar Championship and winning 17 championship trophies so far. But what he values ????is not the trophy. Last year, he decided to take on a new challenge - F1 motorboat. To this end, he is going all out to have a "Super F1 Motorboat Driver's License" in a short time, and there are only 42 in the world. People own.
Conceit and inferiority both stem from an unobjective understanding of oneself, and both cannot accept the true but imperfect self.
Conceit and inferiority are twins, both are self-centered. This mentality keeps people away from success.
Read Xiao Ming’s story on P23 and think:
Why was Xiao Ming not elected as a Sanhaosheng student?
After losing the election, what kind of psychology did Xiao Ming’s performance reflect?
The reason why Xiao Ming, who was originally conceited, becomes inferior is because Xiao Ming does not understand himself objectively. The goals he pursues are false from the beginning. Once he encounters setbacks, he will become inferior.
Successful people do not have any arrogance or inferiority complex, but they eventually overcome their arrogance and inferiority complex. So as long as we can bid farewell to arrogance and inferiority in time and build up self-confidence, we will be able to succeed!
§2.2 Confidence is the cornerstone of success
1. Confidence helps success:
∵Confident people are optimistic, curious and focused
2. Conceit and inferiority keep people away from success
∵Conceit and inferiority are both self-centered.
The second lesson raises the sail of confidence
The third lesson sings the song of confidence
The story of the lion Dior
The little lion Dior grew up slowly. He found that although all mammals think lions are the kings of the grasslands, lions have an obvious weakness, that is, their endurance in middle and long-distance running events is weaker than that of antelopes. Many times, because of this weakness, the antelope slips away from the mouth. Through literature review and experimental research, he figured out that the reason why antelopes have good endurance is their food. So, he ate grass secretly every day without telling the lioness. A week later...
Behavioral cognitive therapy for the lion Dio
Cognitive therapy: Let him know that the lion has become the grassland The king is not because he has no shortcomings, but because his advantages are outstanding. He dominated the grasslands by relying on his outstanding observation skills, excellent explosive power, sharp teeth and precise jumping movements.
Behavioral therapy: ① Say in front of the mirror every day: Although I have... (shortcomings), I am still the king of the prairie because I have... (advantages).
② Register the number of antelopes you catch every day, and share your daily progress with your family.
③When hunting fails, analyze the reasons and remind yourself to give full play to your advantages in order to complete the task better next time.
Three years later, Dio became the best lion on that grassland. He became famous for his quick reactions and proper selection of prey locations. Of course, like other lions, his middle and long-distance running performance is still not as good as that of the antelope, but he no longer cares about this.
One way to enhance self-confidence: See your own progress and strengths
Discovering your own strengths is the basis of self-confidence. Regularly experiencing every bit of progress and achievements means constantly cheering and encouraging ourselves, so that we will be confident in ourselves.
Steps:
Group four people into a group. Each person first writes two notes each about his own strengths and improvements and those of other team members to express his appreciation.
Exchange notes, and each person reads out his or her strengths and progress aloud to feel confident.
Collect the notes and store them in the "Confidence Jar".
In the future, whenever you make progress and achievements or are praised by others, write a note and put it in the confidence jar; whenever your confidence is low, take out the note and read it aloud.
Why are they not confident?
Xiao Qiu said: I have not been good at spoken English since I was a child. When I get to English class, I dare not raise my head for fear that the teacher will call me.
Xiaoping said: I can’t jump long ropes. When it comes to the winter three-jump competition, I feel very inferior.
Xiao Yue said: I have read very few extracurricular books. Every time my classmates talked enthusiastically about books, I couldn't get a word in. At that time, I felt really bad.
Method 2 to enhance self-confidence: Enhance confidence and strength
In which aspect do you have the most confidence and strength? How did you increase your confidence and strength?
Believe in yourself, try boldly, and accept challenges. We need to experience confidence in recalling past successful experiences. At the same time, we should do more, strive to get things done, and get more inspiration from them.
For problems, difficulties and even failures in the process of progress, respond calmly, focus on completing tasks, and accelerate the improvement of strength. And strength is the most important pillar that supports confidence.
He Xiao is a high school student in Beijing No. 2 Middle School. In the summer of 2008, he was fortunate enough to become an Olympic volunteer, responsible for guiding spectators to their seats at competition venues. Although he has never watched a game carefully, every time he hears foreign friends giving him a thumbs up and says "How great the volunteers are!", every time he sees the five-star red flag rising over the stadium, he feels... He felt extremely proud when the entire Chinese audience sang the national anthem in unison! In a summary of his volunteer work, he wrote: "As a Chinese, I have never been more confident than I am now!"
Being a confident Chinese
The confidence of the nation is personal foundation. Only by integrating our personal destiny with the development of our motherland can our self-confidence have a rock-solid foundation. If a person does not have national self-confidence, his self-confidence will have no meaning and value.
A person with strong national self-confidence will definitely consciously show Chinese magnanimity and style in international exchanges, be neither humble nor arrogant, be generous and generous, and will never do anything that harms the national character.

It seemed that it had tried its best and could not One step further. The girl felt really distressed and decided to help it, so she took scissors and carefully cut open the cocoon.
The butterfly broke free easily. But its wings were wrinkled and its body looked like a swollen insect.
The little girl is looking forward to the butterfly spreading its wings and flying. However, the butterfly could no longer spread its wings, and it shivered until death came.
This kind-hearted girl did not know that breaking out of the cocoon is the necessary process for a caterpillar to turn into a butterfly. Because I helped it, it lost the opportunity to fight with all its strength, so that it could not spread its wings and fly, and could not welcome a new life.

Lesson 3: Towards an independent life
Section 2: Say goodbye to dependence and move toward independence
Wei Yongkang, born in 1983, recognized more than 2,000 words at the age of 2. He went to elementary school at the age of 4. He completed the 6-year elementary school course in 3 years. He entered middle school at the age of 8, went to university at the age of 13, and went to university at the age of 17. He was admitted to the Chinese Academy of Sciences for a combined master's and doctoral degree.
When Wei Yongkang was in college, he lived with his mother for three years. In his senior year, the school arranged for him to live in a dormitory. After moving into the dormitory, Wei Yongkang could not take care of himself and often made jokes. For example: I woke up late in the morning and couldn't find my own toothpaste, so I just used my classmates' toothpaste and didn't return it to where I was after using it; I couldn't wear my own shoes, so I took away my classmates' shoes and threw my socks away. In the middle of winter, he didn’t know how to add extra clothes to himself. He even needed reminders from his professor to dress and eat, and he even walked barefoot in the fields.
Why did Wei Yongkang lose the ability to live independently?
Wei Yongkang’s mother, Zeng Xuemei, took care of all his self-care issues. His mother fed him until his senior year of high school (age 12). When Wei Yongkang was in college, he lived with his mother for three years. Even when Wei Yongkang moved to the student dormitory in his fourth year, his mother was still with him and took care of all his life problems. His mother said: "I have never let him wash his clothes or socks. I wash his hair."
Dependence on others not only made Wei Yongkang lose the ability to live independently, but also gave him What harm did he bring?
Although Wei Yongkang has superior intelligence, he is shy, very unsociable, and does not know how to interact with the people around him. The way to interact with people is just a word - "Hello", or an action - shaking hands.
When Wei Yongkang graduated from Xiangtan University, the principal of Huarong No. 1 Middle School went to visit him. When he saw that he had grown taller and became more sensible, the principal said, "Wei Yongkang, you are much more sensible." But he said, "Then I'm still not as sensible as you."
Reliance on others will make people
①Loss the ability and spirit to live independently
②Lack of sense of responsibility in life, resulting in personality defects
③They just want to get something for nothing, they are greedy for enjoyment, they are unable to adapt to society, and they even endanger society and others, leading to illegal crimes.
Does self-reliance require us to refuse all help?
Since Jiajia entered junior high school, she has become more and more independent and has to solve everything by herself. Recently, for unknown reasons, Jiajia's math scores have declined greatly. For this reason, her parents are very anxious and want to analyze the test papers with Jiajia to help her find the reasons for her decline. But Jiajia said: I want to be independent and I don’t want to rely on your help!
Self-reliance does not mean refusing help, relying does not mean dependence
We need to help each other and rely on each other to live in society.
We should complete things independently and refuse help for what we are capable of. This will help cultivate our self-reliance.
For things beyond our abilities, we should actively seek help and listen to other people's suggestions. This is also a sign of self-reliance.
In order for Wei Yongkang to say goodbye to dependence and move towards independence, what do you think Wei Yongkang should do?
Say goodbye to dependence, and an important manifestation is to live independently.
When a reporter asked Wei Yongkang's mother Zeng Xuemei: "Have you realized that Yongkang is also an independent person, with his own independent personality and his own independent space?" Zeng Xuemei replied: "Independent? Unless I After he died, he became independent."
Professor Li, Wei Yongkang's class teacher in college, once assigned Wei Yongkang a task before the winter vacation of his freshman year - to read the four major Chinese classics. After the winter vacation, Professor Li asked him, "Have you read it?" He said, "Mom won't let me read it."
In this matter, to whom did Wei Yongkang place the responsibility for not reading the classic?
Do you think Wei Yongkang is a person who has his own opinions and can be responsible for his own actions?
It is precisely because Wei Yongkang has no opinion that he cannot take responsibility for his own affairs, bear his own responsibilities, and become a self-reliant person.
How did Wei Yongkang develop his ability to be independent?
Two years later, Wei Yongkang has changed in many aspects. He often helps his mother with housework at home, serves his bedridden father, and donates blood voluntarily on the streets.
In August 2005, Professor Xing from a research institute in Shanghai expressed his willingness to recruit Wei Yongkang as his graduate student. On September 5, Wei Yongkang met and interviewed the leaders and experts of this institute. On that occasion, he insisted not to have his mother accompany him.
Afterwards, Wei’s mother happily told reporters how Wei Yongkang bought the train ticket for her: The ticket office was overcrowded at the time. Wei Yongkang went straight to the ticket window and saw that there were only standing tickets. He hurriedly begged the ticket seller. Bought a seat ticket.
How to cultivate your own self-reliance?
The most basic thing is to start from small things based on your current problems in life and study.

The person who posted the announcement was Xie Jiacheng, the best-performing classmate in Class 2, Shengang No. 2 Middle School, Conghua City.
In order to reduce the family burden on his parents, Xie Jiacheng first secured a place to work in the cafeteria this semester. I clean the canteen for half a month every month, in exchange for having lunch and dinner every day for half a month. For the remaining half of the month, the cafeteria only provides one free meal every day, and breakfast is entirely on your own. Even so, he took the initiative to ask his family to reduce his weekly living expenses from 20 yuan to 5 yuan. He had to use the 5 yuan to arrange three meals for six days and buy books. Xie Jiacheng often went hungry just to buy books. For this reason, he was determined to make a living through his own efforts.
“I thought about it a lot and came up with the idea of ??helping others with their homework.”
Now by tutoring classmates with their homework, Xie Jiacheng can have enough to eat every morning. This success strengthened his idea: a successful person must dare to act and persevere to achieve his ideals.
When it comes to ideals, Xie Jiacheng’s eyes sparkle. He said his dream is to travel around the world. However, to realize his ideal, he must change the current situation of poverty in his family, so he set his first goal to become an entrepreneur. For this reason, he studied more diligently. In the second stage of the exam this semester, his score was first in the whole grade, including full marks in mathematics and physics.
What do you think of Xie Jiacheng’s behavior of helping classmates with homework in exchange for 1 yuan a day for breakfast?
While Xie Jiacheng worked hard for his three meals, he was still able to achieve the first place in the grade. What did he rely on?

The historical testimony of Chinese people’s self-reliance and self-reliance - Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge
Nanjing is located in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, where the river surface is wide, the water is deep and the waves are strong. Before liberation, Japan and the United States both wanted to build a bridge here in order to step up their invasion and plunder of China.
But faced with such complex natural conditions, he had no choice but to say: Building a bridge in Nanjing is more difficult than climbing to the sky.
After the founding of New China, in order to develop the economy, it was decided to build the Yangtze River Bridge in Nanjing. In 1960, construction of the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge started. The Chinese people who participated in the construction of the bridge insisted on being independent and self-reliant. They designed, constructed, and installed themselves. They broke through one technical difficulty after another and finally built the Yangtze River Bridge, creating a miracle in the history of world bridges.
Look at P49 Hammer’s story and think:
What qualities contributed to Hammer’s success?
What would have happened if Hammer had not sought to make progress because he had received help from others?
Is the following behavior a sign of self-improvement or self-abandonment?
When I encounter a difficult problem, I am too lazy to think about it and wait for the teacher to comment.
