Self-esteem reflects your overall subjective emotional evaluation of your own worth. It is the decision made by an individual as an attitude towards the self. Self-esteem encompasses beliefs about oneself as well as emotional states, such as triumph, despair, pride, and shame. Psychologist Nathaniel Branden stated that self-esteem is the sum of self-confidence (a feeling of personal capacity) and self-respect (a feeling of personal worth).

Self-esteem significantly influences people’s choices and decisions. Thus, enhancing understanding of one’s self-esteem can lead to better decision-making in life and foster healthier relationships. According to the American Psychological Association, individuals with healthy self-esteem tend to better handle conflicts and are more likely to ask for help when needed. They are also less likely to stay in unhealthy relationships.
