Why do people sometimes give up their self confidence. What's the relationship between self confidence and self esteem?


Why do people become ashame of themselves? Ashame of their complexion, ashame of their accents, ashame of their feet, ashame of their bodies, ashame of their personal accomplishments.


Between 'being ashame' and . . . 'accepting yourself as you are, knowing that no one is perfect' . . . Which would serve you better?
Between 'being ashame' and . . . 'recognizing your shortcomings while charting a course for self development', which would serve you better?


Self-esteem is the confidence to truly value yourself. It is the value you place on your worth.


Look within, you are good enough!

U start living like others want u to.

I agree. This happens.

And this creates pressure because a person will always fall short trying to be another person's opinion of you. Their opinion will keep shifting, and the goal will keep changing. Such a person may end up accepting failure as a personal trait!
