A religious person will have a different thought from one who is not. And a Democrat usually doesn’t view issues the same way as a Republican.
Take the shoes for example. It has the same principle. Some like custom shoes for personalization. But some don’t. Someone will buy a shoes printer only for one desired image. That all depends on different conceptions. So when you have a negative thought about yourself, don’t consider it a fact until you also reflect on the opposite view. And if the alternative is more positive, accept that to be your truth.
An anorexic (厌食症患者) looks in the mirror and thinks she’s fat. As a result she starves herself and rids her body of vital nutrition. But society thinks she’s too skinny. Unless she can change her perception, she’ll never agree with society. And she’ll never get better. What are you seeing in you that is preventing you from realizing how beautiful you are? Or how smart you are? Or how lovable? If you take the positive view, that is how other people will see you too.
More often than not the critical statements that damage your self-esteem come from your own mind. Now you know how you can silence them. A bad comment is usually not about you; it’s about something that is going on with the commenter. Don’t believe anything that is said to you that isn’t in your best interest. And don’t waste any time or brainpower on anyone who doesn’t think you are amazing.
It’s what you think that creates how you feel. Design your own custom shoes, despite other one’s critical eyes. If you like it, it will be the top one. If someone tells you you’re fat, or stupid or otherwise unappealing, the only person you should think badly about is them!

A 17-year-old boy, caught sending text messages in class, was recently sent to the vice principal's office at Millwood High School in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The vice principal, Steve Gallagher, told the boy he needed to focus on the teacher, not his cellphone. The boy listened politely and nodded, and that's when Mr. Gallagher noticed the student’s fingers moving on his lap. He was texting while being scolded for texting. “It was a subconscious act,” says Mr. Gallagher, who took the phone away. “Young people today are connected socially from the moment they open their eyes in the morning until they close their eyes at night. It’s compulsive.”
A study this year by psychology students at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, Ga., found that the more time young people spend on Facebook, the more likely they are to have lower grades and weaker study habits. Heavy Facebook users show signs of being more sociable, but they are also more likely to be anxious, hostile or depressed. ( Doctors, meanwhile, are now blaming addictions to “night texting” for disturbing the sleep patterns of teens. )
Almost a quarter of today’s teens check Facebook more than 10 times a day, according to a 2009 survey by Common Sense Media, a nonprofit group that monitors media’s impact on families. Will these young people get rid of this habit once they enter the work force, or will employers come to see texting and “social-network checking” as accepted parts of the workday? Think back. When today’s older workers were in their 20s, they might have taken a break on the job to call friends and make after-work plans. In those earlier eras, companies discouraged non-business-related calls, and someone who made personal calls all day risked being fired. It was impossible to imagine the constant back-and-forth texting that defines interactions among young people today. Educators are also being asked by parents, students and educational strategists to reconsider their rules. “In past generations, students got in trouble for passing notes in class. Now students are adept（熟练的） at texting with their phones still in their pockets,” says 40-year-old Mr. Gallagher, the vice principal, “and they’re able to communicate with someone one floor down and three rows over. Students are just fundamentally different today. They will take suspensions rather than give up their phones.”
