We´ve talked a lot about self confidence, but there is another word often used and that is self esteem. At that this point I think it is necessary to define what self esteem.
How you feel and how you think about yourself is what determines your self esteem. The negative and positive thoughts you have about yourself will affect your self esteem. The more positive thoughts you have about yourself, the more self esteem you will have. The more negative thoughts you have the lower your self esteem.
