CONCEPT NOTES:
When it comes to your relationship with yourself, you can be your own best friend or biggest enemy.
It doesn’t matter how many people you know. You will always be in attendance, making it the most
important one on the list. But do you know why?
It all comes down to self-worth. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines worth as “the value of

something measured by its qualities or by the esteem in which it is held.” In short, worth equals value.
Self-worth is not the same as self-esteem, however. Although they’re often used synonymously, New
York City social worker Amanda Wetzstein Frey, LMSW, says that “self-esteem is more about confidence and
healthy admiration for one’s self.” And healthy admiration is more about self-respect. Self-worth, on the
other hand, is the leading lady in the big picture of mental and emotional health. Without it, your general
well-being can (and will) suffer.
The age of entitlement is, not coincidentally, the age of high self-esteem. Self-esteem, as defined by
standard measures, is a function of how we feel about ourselves—based mostly on comparison to others. It
often has a hierarchical bias—we’re better than some, but not as good as others. It has a dark side, too, as
indicated by the research of Roy Baumeister and colleagues and summarized in the book, Evil: Inside
Human Violence and Cruelty. High self-esteem tends to create a sense of entitlement. When the world does
not meet their entitlement needs, many with high self-esteem feel wronged and may retaliate with
manipulation, abuse, or violence.
Self-value is more behavioral than emotional, more about how you act toward what you value,
including yourself, than how you feel about yourself compared to others. It necessarily includes self-care.
To value something goes beyond regarding it as important; you also appreciate its qualities, while
investing time, energy, effort, and sacrifice in its nurturing or maintenance.
If you value a da Vinci painting, you focus on its beauty and design more than the cracks in the
paint, and, above all, you treat it well, making sure that it is maintained in ideal conditions and shielded
from direct lighting. Similarly, people with high self-value appreciate their own better qualities (even while
trying to improve their lesser ones) and take care of their physical and psychological health, growth, and
development.
Now here's the tricky part. In contrast to high self-esteem, with its tendency toward entitlement,
people with high self-value necessarily value others. Where self-esteem is hierarchical, self-value is about
equality. Here's why: When we value others, we value ourselves more—we elevate our sense of well-being
and facilitate our health, growth, and development. (Think of how you feel when you’re loving and
compassionate to those you love.) When we devalue someone else, we devalue ourselves—our sense of well
being deteriorates, we violate our basic humanity to some degree, and become more narrow and rigid in
perspective, all of which impair growth and development. (Think of how you feel when you devalue loved
ones.) In other words, when you value someone else you experience a state of value—vitality, meaning, and
purpose—and when you devalue someone else, you experience a devalued state, wherein the will to live well
becomes less important than the will to control or dominate or at least be seen as right.

Topic2: VALUING OTHERS
Learning Competency: Exhibit the importance of others through different aspects (HGSPS-If-6)
Learning Target: Exhibiting the importance of others through physical, physiological,
psychological, spiritual and social aspects
Concept Notes:
Valuing other means seeing differences as something positive. It means trying to understand how others
think and feel, and knowing that this helps you as well as them. So the following are just some of the ways
on how to value others.
1. Say “Thank You”. Say “thank you” and you mean it. Don’t overlook the power of those two words and
how they recognized the person.
2. Focus on the positive. It’s often easiest to point out what your loved or those supporting you do
wrong rather than what they do right. Next time you’re about to criticize someone, stop and think of
something good you can say instead. Both kids and adults need reassurance that they are doing
something right.
3. Give gifts. Think a reason to give someone a gift perhaps no reason at all. It doesn’t need you to
spend any amount. It could simply be the gift of time or listening.
4. Speak your appreciation. Get into a habit of telling people what you love or appreciate about them.
Say it when it counts the most in the moment, not when it’s too late.
5. Be a hugger. A hug can be all the person needs to feel like they’re appreciated. Touch creates a
physical, emotional and spiritual connection that is critical at all stages of life from infanthood to
adulthood.
6. Make eye contact. Nothing feels worse than someone who can’t look you in the eyes when they’re
talking to you. It would make you feel uncomfortable, unwanted and unimportant. Eye contact shows
people that their presence, thoughts, and words are valuable to you.
7. Brag in public. If there’s someone in your life whom you feel should be recognized, do something
public about it. What’s important is the intent to recognize someone in front of others.
8. Be present. Nothing says “you don’t matter” than picking up a call or texting while you’re with
someone else. Be present with the people. Turn off your phone and put it away. If you must answer,
apologize, explain why and make it quick. It is just good manners.
ACTIVITY 1. Read the following situations and give the answer which is best suited for each situation.
1. You were invited to a friend’s birthday party. You noticed that the foods being served were sort of a
bland to your taste. Your friend saw that you haven’t eaten much and asked you why. What are you
going to say?
a. Oh, the foods you have are all good. It’s just that I am still full. Thanks for your concern.
b. I don’t like the foods here. It doesn’t suit my taste.
c. You could’ve told me that you were preparing these foods so I wouldn’t mind coming over.
d. To be honest friend, your foods could have been better if you seasoned them well.
2. There’s an exchanging of gifts during Christmas party. You have received a color pink bag. Well, you
least like the color that you received. What are you going to do?
a. Return the gift from the person who gave it to you.
b. Say “thank you” and you mean it. You’ll be cherishing it.
c. Ask the giver to change its color to the one you like.
d. Give it to someone else in your family secretly.
3. Your brother was insisting in joining a pageant in his school. Your family was against it but still he
was persistent. The pageant day came and he never brought any awards. You saw him crying. What
will you say?
a. We told you. You were just wasting your time.
b. We told you. You should focus more in what you do best like singing instead of joining pageants.
c. It’s okay. There will always be next time. It was not bad for a first timer. Next time, just do better.
By the way, you had the greatest smile there.
d. Why cry over spilled milk? What’s done is done so cheer up!
4. Your father just lost his job and you saw him sitting while thinking deeply into something. What are
you going to say?
a. I think it is about time for me to stop studying so I could help you.
b. Why were you fired? Did you do something stupid? What am I supposed to do now? Should I stop
studying?
c. Pa, your company is full of stupid person. They haven’t seen your potentials. It’s their loss not
yours!
d. Come here Papa! Let me give u a hug. It’s okay. We’ll get through this. I will also find a way to
help our finances. Maybe God has planned something much better for you and for our family.
ACTIVITY 2. Think of a personal situation from the past where you have valued someone so dearly. Write it
down on your answer sheets.
