To know or to believe??
A business man had just turned off the
light in the shop, when a man
appeared and asked for money.
The owner opened the money box; the
contents were taken out of the
money box, and the man
disappeared.
The Police were informed immediately.

citizen with rights)
Do I accept myself
as I am - or do I
not? (Am I OK or

To be or not to be
that is the question!
Skills, Attitudes, Knowledge, Values 10
SELF CONFIDENCE
How I believe in my
own qualifications
What I actually DO
Visible results of my
existence
What others
recognize
What others
appreciate or not



Skills, Attitudes, Knowledge, Values 11
SELF ESTEEM.
My self esteem is my self-
image + my self
confidence together.
If one of these is
negative, I do not feel
OK.
My self esteem is
influencing my
behaviour, and how I
look at other people.
Skills, Attitudes, Knowledge, Values 12
Experience/Training
I am a result of my life until this very
moment.
Every second many thousands of little
signals reach me most of them I do
not sense consciously.

My bag of experiences is like a computer
where all the signals are filed.

2 or 3 signals with the same result make
me generalize, and soon I will have a new
attitude.
We do not learn any knowledge or skill
without an attitude towards or against it.

You cannot teach a
man anything
you can only help
him to discover it
for himself.
Skills, Attitudes, Knowledge, Values 13

persons behaviour
through a change in the
persons
skills
knowledge
attitudes
values
