Self-Worth Foundation Assessment

1. I feel good about myself when:

I accomplish goals and succeed at things I look good and receive compliments on my appearance Others like me, approve of me, or need me I feel okay about myself most of the time, regardless of circumstances

2. When I fail at something important, my self-worth:

Takes a major hit—I am what I accomplish Drops less than if someone criticized my appearance Is fine unless others are disappointed in me too Is challenged but fundamentally stable

3. The worst criticism someone could give me is:

"You're not competent/successful/intelligent." "You're unattractive/overweight/aging badly." "No one likes you/You're difficult/People don't want you around." I'd be hurt by any of these, but they wouldn't define me.

4. I spend the most energy trying to:

Achieve more, be productive, reach goals Look good, stay fit, dress well Please others, be liked, avoid conflict Live according to my values, whatever others think

5. If everything external was stripped away (job, looks, approval), I would feel:

Lost—my achievements define me Invisible—my appearance is how I matter Worthless—others' love gives me value Challenged but eventually okay—I am more than these
