Self esteem is an individual concept.


Self-esteem is crucial factor where every individual expects respect and peace as an individual from others. But the circumstances are not friendly or will comfort the individual always. The individual should not get lost or carried away by being disrespected by some people around, who gain pleasure by insulting you. If the person becomes weak after being insulted or humiliated by someone, it will destroy the individual's potential on a short run or even a long run depending on the recovery time.





Self-esteem literally means what you mean to yourself and not what others believe about you. Every individual knows what he or she deserves based on the honest judgment of his or her action. When an individual has done a big blunder and gets humiliated by someone, they know from their bottom of the heart they deserved it. But when an individual hasn't done a crime, but convicted for that by mistake and mocked by the society is an agony. That's where the concept of self-esteem matters where the individual has to be mentally strong enough to resist and fight back in life, the weak will crumble to pressure demolishing his or her career which makes no sense. That's why self-esteem is not about what the world around you believes about you, it's about your own honest belief of your actions and results.
