Self-image is the way one sees, thinks, and feels about one's self. I believe my self-image is honest, accurate, and positive. I say this because I recognize my own weaknesses, and instead of despairing about them, I acknowledge them and strive to improve those areas. Additionally, I feel confident when challenges arise and am comfortable with the risk of failure because I understand that in order to learn and become successful there will be failure involved. Furthermore, I believe I have a positive self-image since I am comfortable with taking risks, maintaining positive relationships, and am not held back by fears or insecurities. I think a positive self-image is imperative to a great leader.
