THE 15-DAY SELF-ESTEEM CHALLENGE

People who struggle with low self-esteem may have high levels of self-criticism, persistent indecision, and battling perfectionism, pessimism, aggression, and guilt. Self-criticism inherent in low self-esteem has been associated with depression and difficulties in seeing oneself as lovable or as a human being of importance. People with high self-esteem are known to believe completely in their ability to solve problems, to excel in their life projects, to find themselves deserving of love, and not to spend precious time constantly thinking about what happened in the past or what will happen in the future.
