lets dive in a little further, let's get to know the importance of self-esteem
It’s unfortunate that only a few people know the important role that self-esteem plays in their lives. The success that you have in your career depends on the effort that you invest in it.
Also, the amount of effort that you invest depends on the level of trust that you have in yourself for successfully achieving your goals. Simply, if you do not believe in yourself that you will succeed, you never will. Besides, it’s next to impossible to get better business opportunities or career promotion if you lack self-esteem.
Low self esteem is often the main reason for disappointments in relationships. People with poor self-worth often experience difficulty in getting along with their partners, they don't appreciate their work, they are quickly tired about the same thing they were excited about.
People with negative images about their selves often feel distrust, jealousy, and problems with intimacy. Some indications of poor self-esteem include the following:
• Feeling of extreme jealousy
• Loss of decision making abilities
• Feeling of not being respected and cherished by their loved ones
• Developing a sense of dependence on others even on simple things
• Always feel pressured while doing tasks
• Display of excessive anger over simple misunderstandings
• Too much worry
• Frustration
• Feeling helpless
• Poor performance at school or the workplace

Even if things around you are perfect, you’ll never have the chance to enjoy them if you always have negative ideas about your own self.
