I like a girl whose name is Lizzie Velasquez. She is an American girl with a rare disease where it prevents her from gaining fat, and one of her eyes are not working. She was called the ugliest woman in the world. However, I think she is the most beautiful girl in the world because she has an active thought and is strong to overcome the humiliating words from people on the internet. There was a time when 4 million people watched a video of her and said 'kill it with fire' to Lizzie Velasquez. That is a serious hurt. If it is was me, I guess I would just stay at home and cry. However, she chose to face the problem with positive attitude.
I was inspired by her words: 'Am I gonna let the people who called me a monster define me? No. I’m going to let my goals and my success and my accomplishments define me.' Instead of focusing what she does not have, she values more on what is inside her.
I usually define myself in a negative way. I always think I am not doing good enough because I want to be perfect. I was not happy with how I see myself now. In fact, I dislike myself a lot because I do not want to be a negative person. Therefore, I should learn to focus more on the good parts of me instead of my accomplishments just like how Lizzie Velasquez does. I used to view myself as a nothing. The reason is that I am not professional in anything. My friends are always doing things better than me. For example, my friend and I started to learn keyboard together, but she plays better than me. There are many situations like that, and I only focus on the negative parts. However, after reading the article of Lizzie Velasquez, I think about the good parts of me. What I did not think of is that although I do not do as well as my friends in a particular field, I have many talents since I know how to do lots of things, such as playing keyboard, filming, photoshopping and more.
The life of Lizzie Velasquez helps me focus more on what I have and think more of who I am and what I have instead of been conquered by my weakness. If Lizzie Velasquez could overcome her situation of the problem of her body, why can not I overcome the weakness of mine?

You probably need to "study" the reason why you don't like yourself...
