What should we have in our personality to have high self esteem?

It is very important to have a high self esteem in order to value ourselves.  Esteem is a word for thinking that someone or something is important. And self means, yourself. So it's how much you value yourself and how important you think you are. It's how you see yourself and how you feel about your achievements. It's to know that you're worth a lot. It's not about thinking you're perfect but knowing that you're worthy of being loved and accepted. There are some characteristics that we have to apply in our life in order to have a high self esteem, for example: living consciously, learning from mistakes and taking care of you physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.

A very important characteristic that we must have is living consciously everyday; to listen to ourselves and watch our reactions. Also, we have to learn from our mistakes and grow. Another important thing is to be objective; listen to other’s point of view and not only mine. Sometimes we are insecure at the moment of resolving a problem and that is an enemy of self esteem, we should be secure of what we think and defend my opinions but also respect the others.

When we take care of ourselves physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually; we value and love ourselves, also, we don´t allow anyone to disrespect us or hurt us. In addition, we also have to respect the differences; respecting other people differences doesn't mean to agree with them; it is to understand that they have the right to be different and deserve respect as human beings. 

Taking responsibility for our own life and for our actions helps us be self-confidents. Also, having a purpose in life makes us persevere in any difficult situation and believe in ourselves. All these characteristics are essentials to have a high self esteem; if we know ourselves and value our virtues and weaknesses we would overcome any obstacle and be confident. 

Your potential to achieve what you most desire is directly related to your self esteem. If you suffer from low self esteem failure is going to manipulate your life. So we must make an effort to develop a high self esteem and achieve our goals and not let anyone say to us that we can’t do something because anything in this life is impossible if we believe in ourselves.
