Understanding Self-Esteem

Self-esteem is how much we like, accept, and value ourselves. It reflects how we see ourselves — positively or negatively — and can influence how confident we feel. Our self-esteem isn’t fixed; it can shift depending on our experiences and environment.

​

What Does Self-Esteem Look Like?

✅ High Self-Esteem
When we have a positive view of ourselves, we feel confident in our abilities and accept ourselves as we are. We care less about what others think and tend to feel more optimistic about life.

❌ Low Self-Esteem
When we have a negative view of ourselves, we may lack confidence and wish we were more like someone else. We might constantly worry about what others think and feel more pessimistic about life.
