We, as humans, naturally rely heavily on external factors.
Self Confidence
Trusting yourself, your decisions and your actions based on your previous experiences and strengths. Increasing this involves taking steps that are scary, then “knowing” you can do what you desire without fear. Fear is the killer of self-confidence. Overcoming it increases our confidence.
Self Esteem
This is the BELIEF in yourself, your values, your purpose and the value you bring to the world. Do you feel you have worth? Is the world better with you and your contributions to it?
Self Image
Although most would believe this is the OUTSIDE view of ourselves, it’s really about how you present your inner self to the world; Your character, integrity, and perception of how you are “seen.”
For example: You may have 1000 followers on social media, you haven’t physically met each person, but your self image is how you believe they see you. Surprisingly, it’s not about the physical you, it’s about how you feel about yourself that translates to others.
