高一英语作文:How to be a friend of yourself 如何成为你自己的朋友？

　　friendship with oneself is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.- eleanor roosevelt 　　we often focus on building relationships with others that we forget the essential first step: being friends of ourselves. that is the crucial first step if we are to have good relationships with others. how can we have good relationships with others if we dont even have good relationship with ourselves? 　　the problem might be worse than we expect. maybe we dont like ourselves without realizing it. here is a simple checklist; is there anything you dont like about yourself from these list? 　　your past 　　maybe you have made mistakes in the past which you feel bad about. you might be disappointed with yourself on why you could make such mistakes. even if that happened in distant past, your subconscious mind still has a reason not to like yourself. 　　your background 　　you might wish that you were born in different family, or that you have different background. maybe you could not accept the fact that you are not as lucky as others, who seem to get whatever they want effortlessly because of their background. 　　your personality traits 　　you might have some personality traits that you dont like. for example, you may be an introvert and you dont like it; you wish you are an extrovert. 　　your achievements relative to others others might have better achievements than you, and no matter how hard you tried, it might seem impossible for you to match them. you might then think that its because you are not smart enough or dont have enough talents. is there anything that resonate with you? all these give reasons to you not to like yourself. that in turn makes it difficult for you to be a good friend to yourself. 　　fortunately, there are always things you can do to fix the situation. here are some tips: 　　1. forgive yourself 　　you may have made those mistakes in the past, but is there anything you can do about them? i dont think so, except learning from them. its true that you are not perfect, but neither is everybody else. its normal to make mistakes, so do yourself a favor by giving yourself forgiveness. 　　2. accept things you cant change 　　there are some things you cannot change, such as your background and your past. so learn to accept them. you will feel much relieved if you treat things you cant change the way they deserve: just accept them, smile, and move on. 　　3. focus on your strengths 　　instead of focusing on your weaknesses, focus on your strengths. you always have some strengths which give you a unique combination nobody else have. recognize your strengths and build your life around them. 　　health top tips nutrition lifestyle 　　4. write your success stories 　　one reason we may not like ourselves is we are too focused on what we dont have that we forget about what we have. so make a list of your achievements; write your success stories. they do not have to be big things; there are a lot of small but important achievements in our life. for example, if you have some good friends, thats already an achievement. if you have a good family, that is also an achievement. 　　5. stop comparing yourself with others 　　you are unique. you can never be like other people, and neither can other people be like you. the way you measure your success is not determined by other people and what they achieve. instead, it is determined by your own life purpose. you have everything you need to achieve your life purpose, so its useless to compare yourself with others. 　　6. always be true to yourself 　　you dont like other people lying to you, right? similarly, you wont like yourself if you know that you lie to yourself. whether you realize it or not, that gives your mind a reason not to like yourself. thats why its important to always be true to yourself. in whatever you do, be honest and follow your conscience. remember this quote by abraham lincoln: 　　i desire so to conduct the affairs of this administration that if at the end . . . i have lost every other friend on earth, i shall at least have one friend left, and that friend shall be down inside of me.
