Angebote / Angebote:

The term self-esteem is used to describe a person's overall sense of self-worth or personal value. In other words, how much you appreciate and like yourself.Self-esteem can involve a variety of beliefs about yourself, such as the appraisal of your appearance, beliefs, emotions, and behaviors.Self-esteem can play a significant role in your motivation and success throughout your life. Low self-esteem may hold you back from succeeding at school or work because you don't believe yourself to be capable of success.By contrast, having a healthy self-esteem can help you achieve because you navigate life with a positive, assertive attitude and believe you can accomplish your goals.The multiple forms of self-esteem are a function of how accurately or closely it matches an individual's measurable reality, composed of the objective outcome of one's behavior (actual achievements, measurable capabilities) as well as one's interpersonal interactions (i.e., the level of congruence between how one thinks he or she is perceived and how he or she is perceived). Self-esteem also varies in terms of its level of stability, or the degree to which it is influenced by evaluative events or the need to match external standards across time and situation. The permutations of these sorting variables yield eight types of self-esteem: Optimal High, Fragile High, Accurate Low, Fragile Low, Non-compensatory Narcissism, Compensatory Narcissism, Pessimal, and Disorganized.
