Self-esteem is used to describe a person's overall sense of self-worth or personal value. In other words, how much we like and appreciate ourselves. Self-esteem is often seen as a stable personality trait, but research actually shows that it develops during adolescence and young adulthood and can change over time. Developing a strong and positive sense of self can protect against mental health problems and help people lead healthy and positive lives.

There is no quick fix to improve your self-esteem. When you think poorly of yourself on a deep level, external changes rarely help. Working on your self-esteem is an inside job.

As a teen, it is incredibly important to have self-confidence, especially when you consider societal pressures about appearance and grades. Just growing up is difficult in and of itself, and in the midst of all this life-related stress, you may not be seeing yourself clearly. In fact, you may be magnifying your weaknesses and minimizing—or even ignoring—your true assets.
