411: Ask David: What’s Self-Esteem? What’s Self-Acceptance? Do We "Need" Them?
Dr. Matt May
Whereas I think of self-esteem as I'm focusing on the, I'm admiring, I'm focusing on the positives and kind of defending against the negatives. So I personally like self-acceptance more than self-esteem. It feels more genuine and true to accept ourselves warts and all. than to focus on the positive and defend against or respect ourselves so that we shut down the negative.
