Self-esteem is the way you feel about yourself when what you Do (based on your Think...Be) lines up with Who you want to be. When this does not happen, that is when we feel bad about ourselves.
The thought behind the quote
Self-esteem is how you feel about yourself. A simple definition for self-esteem is: how much you like yourself. The more you like yourself, the more you can genuinely like others, and the more others will be drawn to you. At its core, the foundation of self-esteem is competence. When you consistently act in ways that align with your values and the person you want to be, you feel competent and build a positive sense of self-worth. When you fail to do this, that is often when you start to feel bad about yourself.
