The organization Characters of Character had the chance to talk to Kellan Lutz about self-esteem.

Characters of Character: When a child feels proud of themselves, everything in life comes a little bit easier. They feel better about the person that they are and they want to continue trying to be the best that they can be. They take pride in themselves and their actions, which allows them to succeed in others aspects of their life. A lot of children don’t have someone there to tell them that they should be proud of themselves and everything that they do. What advice do you have for children who do not have someone in their lives to encourage them and tell them to be proud of themselves?
Even when we are alone it is important to give of ourselves – selfless giving always makes the individual feel better as there is always someone worse off.

What do you feel your greatest accomplishment is in your life and why are you proud of yourself for it?
Using the platform I have to influence others to make a positive impact upon the world around them – helping, serving, giving whenever possible.

Was there ever a point in your life when you didn’t have confidence in yourself?
My Junior year I didn’t go out for Varsity football because I didn’t have much time and didn’t think I was big enough. My insecurities hindered myself and I missed out, that next year I was determined to play football no matter what and so I did and it was some of the best days of my life!
