I would just start with what characteristics I have that I like about myself, that I consider assets to living with Me

Do you enjoy your intelligence? Your sense of humor? Do you like honesty? Are you friendly (or do you bite :-) Here's a good list to look at: Personal Attributes & Self-Improvement

I sometimes play a game where I think of 8-10 attributes I have that I enjoy (my imagination, honesty, intelligence, I'm whimsical, friendly, funny/good sense of humor, etc.) and then I pare it down to my favorite 5, then 3, then I rank order them :-)

I had a teeshirt made many years ago to remind me of what I wanted to be when I grew up (we're talking having it made in my 30's :-) and it says, "3W Woman" to remind me I'm striving to be "warm, wise, and whimsical". Who are you? Who do you want to be? That's what you are worth to yourself, why you are glad to hang around with you
