WHAT IS SELF ESTEEM ? WHAT DOES SELF ESTEEM MEAN ?
Self esteem is a state of mind. It is the way you think and feel about yourself. Having high
self esteem means having feelings of confidence, worthiness and positive regard for yourself. People
with high self esteem feel good about themselves. They feel a sense of belonging and security. They
respect themselves and appreciate others. They tend to be successful in life because they feel confident
in taking on challenges and risking failure to achieve what they want. They have more energy for
positive pursuits because their energy is not wasted on negative emotions, feelings of inferiority or
working hard to take care of or please others at the expense of their own self-care.
The amount of self esteem you have depends on many factors -- how you were raised, parental
attitudes, life experiences, etc. Sometimes people lose self esteem and feel bad about themselves
because of failures or disappointments in life, or because of the way others in their lives have treated
them. It is important to know that self-esteem can be gained at any time in life. Ideally, it happens in
childhood; realistically, most people have to cultivate it later in life.
