Self Esteem Test
This self esteem test is easy and takes just a few minutes. Simply answer TRUE or FALSE to each question. If you are not sure that it's 100% true, then it's false. There are three categories of questions in relation to what your self esteem is based on: how you feel about yourself; how you feel about others; how you feel about your experiences. Since we all have days that we're up and days that we're down, all of the questions are in relation to how you usually feel most of the time. Your common reaction, not how you feel once in awhile. Answer as truthfully as you can. The answers are only for you. A gauge to see how your self esteem is doing. You can choose an answer that you know would mean that your self esteem is good when you know it isn't, but the only one you would be cheating would be yourself. This is an opportunity to learn something about yourself. Even if you lie, you learn that about yourself...that you are willing to lie to yourself to get the right answer.

Self Esteem is very simply how you feel about yourself. Good self esteem is essential for success, happiness, a better life. You feel confident, happy, secure, respectful of yourself and others. Low self esteem leads towards failure. You feel depressed because you're not worth much, unhappy and lonely because you're not worth being with, insecure because you have no confidence in yourself to accomplish anything.
Daily experiences give us good days and bad days, outside of our self esteem. The difference is with good self esteem a bad experience will have only marginal effect on us, not long lasting. However combine it with low self esteem and the same experience can be life altering. How secure you are within yourself can determine how well you can withstand the onslaughts of the world, especially when they seem to come all at once.
Life experiences can seem overwhelming sometimes, but with high Self Esteem you are assured of being able to rise above anything that is dragging you down and shine like a light for the rest of the world to see.
You must believe in yourself first. All else follows.
