Seed 1: Self Esteem


Self Esteem reflects a person’s overall subjective emotional evaluation of his or her own worth. It is judgement of oneself as well as attitude towards yourself. Lacking of self esteem can lead to people becoming depressed, to fall short of their potential, or to tolerate abusive situations or relationships. On the other hand too much can put an off-putting sense of entitlement and there comes some mistakes and failures to learn from. For example, you’re going to have an AP test and you’re really nervous because the AP test isn’t really your best subject so you start to think negative but to show self esteem is that you have to say to yourself that you can overcome this test because you know better (Appreciate the value of yourself, From self-love to self-worth)
 


Seed 2: Creativity
         
Creativity is the use of the imagination or original ideas, especially in the production of an artistic work. Having creativity it gives you the capability to express yourself through out many ways in your life, as in school you can put creativity in projects such as put in ideas, think outside the box, think of something no one thought of before, or in work you can show creativity by doing something different to finish something faster. Without creativity then we will all be the same boring and basic. Creativity helps you and shows people what you are really capable of in. "Releasing your creative energy"
