Value: Believe In Yourself

In the movie "Shrek" the main character wins the heart of the princess by believing in himself despite the opinions of others. Shrek knows that he is not just an ugly, mean ogre; there is much more to him than that. By not doubting himself, Shrek saves the princess from her imprisonment and wins her heart. It is only by believing in himself that Shrek has the courage and self-confidence to succeed.

SHREK RULES!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE SHREK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like this one because there are so many people in this world who don't believe in themselves. Maybe for once they should try it. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF, BE A BELIEVER.

Kate A. over 3 years ago from Penn Manor HIgh School

Awesome. Very very awesome.

Michele G. over 3 years ago from Michigan

My boss died suddenly this past week, leaving a big hole in our organization. Driving up to his funeral, I saw this billboard -- and it reminds me so much of him that it made me smile, and continues to do so. He was an over achiever that always worked to support the rest of us believing in ourselves. Thank you for giving me a neat way to remember him.

Conrad C. over 3 years ago from Tanzania

Stella T. over 3 years ago from Oregon, Portland

Believe In Yourself means that you have faith- you also can feel confidence about doing something. For example, Shrek believed that he would be with the princess... and he did by believing in himself.

Nicole C. almost 4 years ago from Bakersfield,CA

I really liked this billboard of Shrek... he is awesome and he didn't believe that he would fall in love with the princess.....

Jimmy U. almost 4 years ago from Oregon, Usa

When you believe you can do and put yourself to the test, you`d be surprised to see what you can accomplish.

Josue M. about 4 years ago from

He believed he wasn't ugly. We shouldn't believe what other people say because it makes you feel bad and lose confidence in yourself.

Mili C. about 4 years ago from Jefferson City, Missouri

Let's believe in ourselves. Don't worry about what other people think or say about you. There are too many things to explore in this world and we don't have that much time. Life is shorter than what we imagine. Live life and stop worrying about other people's comments. TRUST YOURSELF...THAT'S THE ONLY THING YOU HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT!!!

Crissy M. about 4 years ago from CA

He not only wins the princess by believing in himself, but he shows her how to believe in herself as well and sees the beauty in her no one else could. Now that's truly passing it on.

My teacher started the school year challenging us to be "ogre achievers" and to try our best at everything.

Patrick H. about 4 years ago from Centura, Nebraska

I really believe in this story because you shouldn't let your appearance effect your greatness as a person. You shouldn't doubt yourself. There is too much in life to explore than to sit around worrying about what people think you are.

J.G. over 4 years ago from Arkansas

It is realy good to believe in yourself. If you believe in yourself you can do anything you can set your mind to.

W.D. over 4 years ago from Renfrew, Ontario, Canada

I am a grade 7 in Ontario, Canada. Our class posted all the posters around our school. We thought that it was a better way to make everyone in our school think hard. It was also a better way to make everyone respect each other.

Believing in ones self is important. Words of encouragement do not always come when we need them from others and that in itself can cause a person to feel defeated.

Believing in yourself is one of the most important things in life, because if you don't who will?

Debbie over 5 years ago from Indiana, USA

I raised my 2 children (now 31 & 26) that belief comes from within. And as long as they believed in themselves they would succeed in whatever they wanted to do. It's happening as I breath! Shrek your the MAN!

There's not a better inspirer in this world than inspiring yourself everyday that with 100% attitude "there's nothing I can't do"; irrespective of my present predicament.

Laurie B. about 6 years ago from

Sitting here on Sunday morning watching CNN with my son. He commented that the world is full of lots of bad people so I said, well that is what the media wants you to believe. Brought him to this website to show him all the good stuff happening in the world. [...] THANK YOU - keep up the positive work - I would love to learn how to help as I truly believe if we spread news about all the good stuff going on in our world versus the bad stuff - our world could only be a better place!
