What is the fundamental definition of self esteem? It's your ability to see yourself as a flawed person and still hold yourself in high regard. Accountability is to take responsibility for what you did without being mired in shame. Self love is about letting others love us even when we feel unlovable.
What is the fundamental definition of self esteem? It's your ability to see yourself as a flawed person and still hold yourself in high regard. Accountability is to take responsibility for what you did without being mired in shame. Responsibility is a relational conscience, but so is guilt. Shame is that I feel so bad that I want to hide and not talk about it. So the next day we pretend like nothing happened, yet it still sits. Self love is less about the ability to withstand loneliness and establish independence.
Its more about awareness and acceptance of our incompleteness. Self love is about letting others love us even when we feel unlovable, because their version of us is often kinder than our own.
