What is your level of self-value?
In various places, Dr Montessori spoke of the « valorisation of personality ».
💡 Valorisation of the personality is a phenomenon of human moral development that leads to the highest form of moral independence. This independence is the basis of the strength of human character.
« It is the ‘valorisation’ of the personality, to become aware of ones own value. Without this, as many psychologists say, the child only feels his own value if he is loved. This is another ‘valorisation’ – he is independent, he is sure of his own actions and knows how to act. »
Maria Montessori
Citizen of the World, p. 28-29
❌ A destructive and negative education has an impact on self-value. The adult then becomes powerless and pessimistic.
💚 Let’s take self-value into account and make it a key educational objective.
