Everyone is in favor of high self-respect—but cultivating it can be surprisingly tough. 1 .

Use positive affirmations（肯定）correctly

Positive affirmations such as “I am going to a great success!” are extremely popular. 2 . That is to say, they tend to make people with low self-worth feel worse about themselves. Why? Because when our sell-respect is low, such declarations are simply too contrary to our existing beliefs. Surprisingly, positive affirmations do work for those whose self-respect is already high. For affirmations to work when your sell-respect is low, change them to make them more believable. For example, change “I’m going to be a great success!” to “I’m going to persevere until I succeed!”

Identify your competencies and develop them

Self-respect is built by demonstrating real ability and achievement in areas of our lives that matter to us. 3 . If you’re a good runner, sign up for races and train for them. In short, figure out your core competencies and find opportunities and careers that make them more noticeable.

One of the trickiest aspects of improving self-respect is that when we feel bad about ourselves we tend to be more resistant to praise—even though that is when we most need them. So set yourself the goal to tolerate praise when you receive them, even if they make you uncomfortable. 5 . Furthermore, train yourself to use them automatically whenever you get good feedback For example. “Thank you” or “How kind of you to say”.

A．Learn to accept praise

B．Try to win the praise of others

C．But they have one critical problem

D．Self-respect is vital in social communication

E．Here are ways we can help build ourselves up

F．The best way to avoid such praise is to prepare simple set responses

G．If you pride yourself on being a good cook, hold more dinner parties

【推荐1】How to Order Coffee at Starbucks

Learning how to order coffee at Starbucks can be tricky, and if you think that ordering coffee at Starbucks is confusing, you are not alone.

1 Things move quickly as their employees try to serve customers as efficiently as possible. Orders are generally taken at one of the cash registers. You will be asked for your first name, which you should state clearly. 2 Don’t be mad if they spell or read your name incorrectly. People who have unique or hard-to-spell names will sometimes use an easy "Starbucks" name when ordering, like Mike or Amy.

3 Their names for size are: Tall, Grande, Venti, and Trenta. However, if you order a small, medium, large, or extra-large drink, they will still understand you.

For ordering basic coffee, beyond specifying the size you want, you need to tell the servers whether you want regular or decaffeinated coffee. 4 If you intend to add cream or milk to your coffee, say with room for cream, or simply, with room. If you want a full cup, say no room. Read the list above the counter ahead of time, because they may not ask you which you would like. 5 You will have to wait a bit longer for a new batch (批) to get prepared. Once you you’re your coffee, you will find milk, cream and sweeteners on a nearby counter.

In a word, when you order, say the size you want first, then give the name of the drink, and finally add the special instructions.

A．Starbucks offers all kinds of coffee.

B．Starbucks is often a very busy place.

C．Otherwise, they will assume that you want regular.

D．Sometimes they will write your name in short forms.

E．The ordering process is somehow complicated because they use terms to describe drink size.

F．Finally, if you are very particular about the freshness of your coffee, it’s time to ask about that.

G．Your name will immediately be written on your cup and called out when your drink is ready.

文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述成长型思维可以释放你的潜力，引导你走向成功的生活并给出培养成长型的思维的方法。

【推荐3】Have you ever wondered what-sets truly successful individuals apart? The answer lies in growth thinking. It can unlock your potential and lead you towards a successful life.

One of the most beautiful aspects of growth thinking is that it extends beyond personal development. Take opportunities to support and motivate others, and share your journey, knowledge, and experiences, as it leads to a more fulfilling life for everyone involved. Humans are social creatures, and we benefit from each other when we do things together. 1

Building positive habits is the actual foundation of growth thinking. 2 Make a point of engaging in small, purposeful actions every day, and you will create a path for long-term growth. It’s the daily habits that keep you moving towards the goal you want to reach.

Challenges are not roadblocks; they are opportunities for development. 3 You become better equipped to handle an unfavorable situation, adapt to change, and find innovative solutions. This kind of attitude lays the foundation for long-term success and helps you deal with any challenge that comes your way.

Reflection is a powerful tool for growth. Set aside time regularly to think about your progress and areas for improvement. 4 It can be handwritten, digital, or even audio recordings—whatever works for you. Reflection allows you to learn from your experiences, develop strategies, and stay committed to your growth journey.

To foster growth thinking, expand your learning resources. Don’t limit yourself to a single source of knowledge. 5 It’s really a life-long project. Seek out different ideas to broaden your understanding of any given topic. The more you learn, the better equipped you are to adapt and grow,

A．Consistency is definitely the key.

B．Your confidence determines the end result.

C．Looking back also helps you learn from your mistakes.

D．Education can mean much more than sitting in a classroom.

E．You may keep a journal to track your thoughts and milestones.

F．By making a positive impact on others, you enhance your own growth.

G．Remember, the greatest growth often happens outside of your comfort zone.
