Self-esteem is your overall sense of self-worth. It's the deep, internal belief that you are valuable and worthy of respect, happiness, and love, just as you are .

• Self-Esteem is your sense of worth ("I am a good person"). It's about being.
• Self-Confidence is your belief in your abilities ("I am good at this task"). It's about doing.

You can have high self-confidence in your job but still have low self-esteem .

It is not arrogance, ego, or narcissism. Arrogance is often a mask to hide low self-esteem. True self-esteem is quiet, humble, and stable .

It's a core belief that you are "not good enough." It's when your opinion of yourself is negative and you place little value on your own thoughts and feelings .

It's a balanced, realistic, and appreciative view of yourself. It's about accepting your flaws and weaknesses while still valuing yourself .

Yes! This is the most important part. Your self-esteem is not fixed. It's a skill and a mindset that you can build and strengthen, just like a muscle .

No. It's the opposite. When you have healthy self-esteem, you don't need constant validation from others. This makes you a more stable, generous, and supportive friend, partner, and colleague .

This is the negative voice in your head that judges you, criticizes you, and tells you you're not good enough. This course will teach you how to manage it .

It's the persistent, internal fear of being "found out" as a fraud, despite your accomplishments. It's a classic symptom of low self-esteem in high-achievers .

It's the foundation of self-esteem. It's the ability to accept all parts of yourself—the good, the bad, and the "in-progress"—without judgment .

It often starts in childhood (from critical parents, or bullying) but can be caused by past failures, negative life events, trauma, or constantly comparing yourself to unrealistic standards .

• Constant negative self-talk.
• Being a "people-pleaser" and finding it hard to say "no."
• Being overly sensitive to criticism.
• Comparing yourself to others all the time.
• Perfectionism (believing nothing you do is ever good enough).
• Blaming yourself for everything that goes wrong .

Yes, this is extremely common. This is "Imposter Syndrome." Your achievements are high, but your internal belief in your worth is still low .

• Saying "no" calmly and without guilt.
• Accepting a compliment with a simple "thank you."
• Handling failure by thinking, "What can I learn from this?"
• Stating your opinion respectfully, even if others disagree.
• Taking care of your own needs (sleep, health, etc) .

It can be very damaging. It creates a "comparison culture" where you are constantly measuring your real life against someone else's "highlight reel".

Start with self-compassion. The next time you make a mistake, stop, and talk to yourself with the same kindness you would show to a friend .

It's treating yourself with kindness, especially when you fail or feel inadequate. It's the opposite of self-criticism .

You don't "stop" it, you "manage" it.

1. Notice it (e.g., "Ah, my inner critic is here").
2. Challenge it ("Is that 100% true?").
3. Replace it with a more balanced, compassionate thought .

They can, but only if they are believable. If you have low self-esteem, "I am amazing" feels like a lie. A better affirmation is, "I am a work in progress, and I am learning every day." We teach you to craft believable ones .

When you set a healthy boundary (e.g., "I cannot work late tonight"), you send a powerful message to your own brain that your time, energy, and needs are valuable .

If you promise yourself you'll wake up 10 minutes early to stretch, and you do it, you build self-trust. Self-esteem is the reputation you have with yourself .

Focus on your own journey. We'll teach you to practice gratitude for what you do have and to use others for inspiration, not comparison .

No. We prefer "Face it 'til you make it." We teach you to face your insecurities with courage, not just put on an arrogant mask  .

When you take care of your body (eat well, sleep, exercise), you are sending a non-verbal message to your brain that "I am worth taking care of" .

A powerful tool. We'll teach you to do a "daily win" log (writing down one small thing you did well) or to write out and challenge your negative thoughts .

Don't deflect ("Oh, this old thing?"). Just pause, make eye contact, and say a simple, warm, "Thank you" .

You'll learn to "sift" it. Listen for the kernel of truth that might be useful, and discard the rest (the emotional, personal attack) without letting it crush you .

We'll teach you to separate your action from your identity. You failed an exam; you are not a failure. This distinction is everything .

It's often a symptom of low self-esteem. It's the belief that "If I am perfect, then I will be worthy of love." We teach you to strive for "excellence" (which is healthy) not "perfection" (which is a trap) .

These are your guiding principles (e.g., honesty, kindness, integrity). When you live in a way that aligns with your values, your self-esteem naturally rises .

It's for our students (CA, ACCA, IBPS, etc.), working professionals, and anyone who feels they are being held back by self-doubt, perfectionism, or a nagging "not good enough" feeling .

They are partners. Positive Thinking is about your outlook on the world. Self-Esteem is about your opinion of yourself. It's hard to be positive about the world if you don't feel good about yourself. This course is the foundation .

They are also linked. When you have low self-esteem, you are more likely to have strong, negative emotional reactions (like anger or panic). Building your self-esteem helps you stay calmer and more regulated .

Yes. In fact, it's especially for you. It's not about turning you into an extrovert. It's about building your quiet, internal confidence and worth, so you feel comfortable just being yourself .

A notebook and an open mind. That's all .

Your self-esteem projects non-verbally. You will sit taller, make better eye contact, and answer questions with a calm confidence that interviewers can feel .

This course will give you the tools and the courage to start setting boundaries. It's a journey, but this is the first step .

We will give you simple, powerful exercises to practice, like a "Self-Compassion Break" or a "Daily Win" journal .
