I Am Proud of Myself!

In a world where children are often taught to look outward for "likes," stickers, and "Good jobs," how do we teach them to find value from within?

In "I Am Proud of Myself!", another empowering entry in the Mindful Mantras series, Laurie Wright helps children discover the most important applause of all: the kind that comes from their own hearts. Whether Seb is mastering a tricky new skill, helping a friend, or simply showing up and trying his best, he learns that he doesn’t have to wait for a gold star to feel great. He has the power to recognize his own progress.

This book provides kids aged 4–9 with a practical "internal compass" to navigate the pressure of external validation. By practicing the simple, life-changing mantra "I am proud of myself," children transition from being praise-seekers to self-believers. It’s an essential tool for fostering intrinsic motivation and building a rock-solid sense of self-worth.

★★★★★ "This is a cute and informative book for young children. An enjoyable book with a valuable lesson. Nice illustrations with vivid colors and imagery! Highly recommend."

★★★★★ "My daughter can easily get discouraged if she tries something new for the first time. In her mind she thinks she isn’t doing a good enough job, even though she is. I know this book will help her with mindfulness and knowing she can be proud of herself no matter what!"
