2. What is self-esteem?
•
•
•
•
A term used in psychology to reflect self-worth
It measures how you feel about yourself
You can have good esteem or bad esteem
Esteem helps people make choices and resolve
problems
• Your esteem will reflect the type of life you have
3. Is self-confidence the same as
self-esteem?
No, they are similar but have a distinct difference.
• Self-confidence is how others see us on the outside.
We may be able to speak or do something very well
and this is shown by our confidence in our abilities.
• Self-esteem is how we see ourselves on the inside.
We know how we feel and this does not always show
on the outside.
• We can be confident in our abilities but not have
good esteem about how we look
4. Why is it so important to have
good esteem?
Good esteem will help us:
• Know we are imperfect but we can still like who we are
• Feel comfortable with how we look
• Build good relationships
• Have a positive perspective on life
• Try new things and risk making mistakes
• Have confidence in our abilities
• Helps us find happiness and success
5. Where do we find esteem?
• We are not born with esteem
• It is something that we learn from the
environment around us
• Comes from how others treat us and from how we
treat ourselves
• It can be developed at any age and doesn’t matter
how difficult life has been
6. How do we develop esteem?
1. Do an honest self-evaluation – learn who you are by
taking a journey through your past and discovering
the real you.
2. Learn self-acceptance – Become aware of your
strengths and weaknesses and accept your
imperfections.
3. Improve your self-image from the inside out –
create a more positive perspective and be
comfortable with how you look
7. The journey to happiness and
success

things.

learn how to overcome your insecurities and fears.
