I think that my beliefs and values can have a large impact on many people. The actions I take and the things I believe in are all influenced in some way. I look up to a lot of people, and the way they act can also influence me. I like to be around positive people who don’t put down others who are beneath them in any way. The negativeness of one’s words can affect someone self esteem, and how they view themselves. This is why I would let someone know that I don’t appreciate what they are saying if I believe it could affect a person in a negative way. The way I act can also affect people, including friends, family and otherwise. I choose my words carefully and take into consideration what other people have to say.
