Every student experiences the world, reality and himself/herself through the prismof personal experience and knowledge. There are no two students who feel, see andaccept reality in the same way. Each student views the world through different glasses.The formation of their worldview is influenced by many factors, which is why theseglasses come in a wide variety of tones, colors, purposes and different dioptres. Creating a life dependent on other people’s opinion and comparison with others is culturally and sociologically conditioned. Highlighting in a good or bad way has unpredictable consequences for the student. Due to the fear of judgment and not belonging, many students turn their backs on their own truths, silence their inner voice and put on “rose-tinted glasses” in order not to provoke criticism. In this way, they allow likability and acceptance to become more important than standing up for themselves. This paper talks about the fact that only an objective and realistic picture of oneself gives students the opportunity to assess which knowledge and characteristics can contribute to the achievement of goals, and which hinder them in achieving balance, a fulfilled life and a correct view of themselves and the world.
