Hello Bogdan,
I saw this thread pop up, and I hope this Topic grows into a good discussion.
Self esteem covers many topics - I agree with you, a Huge piece of work..
It is the ability and belief in ones self, in our overall character with our strengths and weakness, to accept where we are right now and allow ourselves to grow and build up our weakness into strengths. To accept constructive criticism to learn and grow.
Self Esteem can effect others around you and is not necessarily a personal weakness or strength because..
A person can have too much self esteem which makes them over confident and bores and can be dangerous to themselves and others - while not enough self esteem in a person makes them timid and mousy and can hold others back that are personally involved in their lives. One has to find a balance between the two.
Moral support from friends, family, mentors etc will definitely give you a boost. However, it is the belief in oneself that you can do it, and this is the Crunch and biggest Obstacle.
I look forward to further discussion.
Kind regards Amanda
