Your level of self-esteem has to do with how worthwhile you feel.
It’s different than the idea of self-confidence, which has more to do with your ability to do something successfully.
Low self-esteem can keep you from enjoying your life. It can also keep you from socializing and maintaining friendships.
Self-esteem is one of those intrinsic qualities that develop slowly over time. If you suffer from low self-esteem, everyone will notice it when you walk into a room. Those with low self-esteem might lack certain social skills, lack assertiveness, or even walk into a room with their shoulders slumped. Body language is a telltale sign as to how much self-esteem you genuinely have.
Those who walk into a room with a big smile and a confident, humble demeanor radiate confidence. These are qualities of someone with high self-esteem.
