Plain-English Snapshot
Self-esteem is the way you evaluate your own worth, ability, acceptability, and place in relation to yourself and others.
Best Used For
Understanding language you may hear in therapy, self-help resources,
or mental-health conversations.
Self-esteem is partly about how you judge yourself. It can be shaped by family, culture, relationships, achievement, criticism, comparison, and repeated experiences of acceptance or rejection.
A useful shift
Instead of trying to feel impressive all the time, aim for a steadier relationship with yourself: honest, accountable, and not cruel.
आत्म-सम्मान इस बात से जुड़ा है कि आप अपने मूल्य और क्षमता को कैसे देखते हैं। यह संबंधों, संस्कृति, तुलना और अनुभवों से प्रभावित हो सकता है।
