What is certain is that it won't work for those who don't believe it.For the rest, I think it could be kind of self-hypnosis.selfAdjoint said:I didn't vote because I honestly don't know the answer. People are so various, and what wouldn't work for me might be a lifesaver for someone else. I mean even the screwiest new age things seem to give some people a boost.

This seems more to do with egotism or egoism, than self-esteem. Esteem is a manifestation of regard -- high esteem = high regard.Some characterstics of people with high self esteem are:
* Being prone to self satisfied boasting
* Tending to be smug and superior

Self-confidence is a belief in one's own abilities, skills, and worth. It is a positive attitude towards oneself and an inner sense of self-worth and self-belief.
Self-confidence is important because it allows individuals to trust in their own abilities and decisions, take on challenges and risks, and handle setbacks and failures. It also contributes to one's overall well-being and happiness.
Yes, self-confidence can be improved through various techniques such as positive self-talk, setting and achieving goals, facing fears and challenges, and surrounding oneself with supportive and encouraging people.
Some ways to boost self-confidence include practicing self-care and self-compassion, setting achievable goals and celebrating small successes, challenging negative thoughts and replacing them with positive affirmations, and taking on new challenges and learning new skills.
Yes, having too much self-confidence can lead to overconfidence and arrogance, which can be detrimental to relationships and success. It is important to have a healthy balance of self-confidence and humility.
