Publisher's Synopsis
Among all forms of esteem, self-esteem is the most important one. Self-esteem is a fundamental requirement if you want to succeed in your life. In this world of competition, one can easily fall prey to wrong methods of success but it is self-esteem that will guide you to the right path. Our world is still a safe place to live because of this quality of human nature; imagine the world without self-esteem in individuals, it would be nothing than a chaos.
When you have a lot of confidence and self-esteem, it is easier to make friends, try new things, and actually succeed at the endeavors you set out to reach.
You wonder whether or not you can actually succeed, or if it is even worth trying to apply for that job in the first place. Do you really think that you should? Are you really good enough? The doubt continues to distract you as you force yourself to walk into the building. You go into the interview and sit, realizing that your palms are sweaty, and you can feel yourself trembling. You don't think you can do this.
What this means is that confidence and self-esteem is something that is developed in children, and as they gather experience in their journey through life, they either lose it or gain more of it. This is the reason why some people who used to be very outspoken as kids grow up and become more reserved as adults. This may be the result of some ugly experiences at one point in their lives, so they have not been able to overcome the effects of such experience.
