How you see yourself is called your self-image.  Self-image has in important role in building up your self-esteem, confidence, etc.  Self-image is not just about how you see yourself but self-image is also about:

• (how you see yourself, as mentioned)
• The kind of person that you think you are
• How you view your personality
• What you think others think of you
• How much you think others like you or how much you like yourself

Self-image affects our personality, self-esteem, courage, motivation, and most especially, it determines our success.  Having a negative self-image obviously won’t help anyone succeed.  You’ll have lower self-esteem and lack self-confidence.  If this is a way for us to succeed, then why not have a positive self-image?

Think of it this way, if you think that other people thinks that you’re a loser, how would you feel?  You will feel miserable, hopeless, and you might just lose trust in yourself.  But if you think that people thinks you’re good and that they believe in you, you will feel more inspired, confident, and determined to succeed.

See how important a cheering squad in a game is?  They remind the players that people believe in them.  Players get more energized and determined to win because they think that people believe in them.  Basically, you won’t need a cheering squad in your life, right?  But there are those people who support you, think of them.  Think that they believe in you and that you are really good at what you do.  If there are people whom you think doesn’t like you, don’t waste your time on them.  Think positive and go on your way to success.
