What is the role of self esteem in building ur personality?  

Self esteem is your opinion of yourself. High self esteem is a good opinion of yourself and low self esteem is a bad opinion of yourself.



Your self esteem depends on many questions:

* Is your job worthwhile? Do others respect what you do? Do you?

* Do you believe you are successful?

* How do you see yourself (your self image)?

* How do you feel about your strengths and weaknesses?

* What do you think of your social status?

* How do you relate to others?

* Can you make your own decisions? A lack of choices leads to low self esteem.

SELF-ESTEEM is, how much you value yourself and how important you think you are. It's how you see yourself and feel about your achievements. It isn't bragging about how great you are. It's more like quietly knowing that you're worth a lot (priceless, in fact!). It's not about thinking you're perfect - because nobody is - but knowing that you're worthy of being loved and accepted. To start with, change what you do in order to make yourself worth more — to yourself and others. Make yourself worth more in reality, not just in your mind. Aim for accomplishments rather than perfection. View mistakes as learning opportunities. Try new things but Recognize what you can change and what you can't. Set goals. Take pride in your opinions and ideas. Don't be afraid to voice them. These will definitely help to assess yourself and improve your personal values.

Self esteem acts as a booster in your self development. You will feel shy in asking favours from everyone if you can do that work yourself. You will gain an image of real life hero if you are self made person. Self esteem is like a mirror with two sides in which you can see your your deeds before others may see it.

Self esteem is a strong positive trait that works as significant catalyst in enhancing our personality. It makes our head straight and delivers a positive attitude in furnishing out our endeavors with great success. It’s an inspiring and imposing motivating source that makes us prepare for the hardest task in life. It makes our nerves strong and they are like steel in the worst circumstances.
