SELF WORTH
vs.
SELF-ESTEEM:
LET’s CLARIFY!
Self-worth and self-esteem are two different things,
despite the fact that they are used at interchangeably. Self-
esteem is concerned more on your confidence and healthy
admiration of yourself, while self-worth is how you value
yourself—an inner sense of value. It is you who can
determine how outside factors influence your self worth.
These factors are actions or reactions and
judgments of other people. Researches say that an
individual who validates his/her self-worth from
external factors may more likely have low self-
worth. However, individuals who consider their
internal aspects tend to develop a healthy inner
sense of value.

feeling for your own self-worth.
