WILL MARK BRAINLIEST! AND GIVE 50 POINTS!! PLZ HELP! In a paragraph, describe ways to improve self-esteem
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

A self esteem can be defined as how you value yourself or how much do you value yourself. Some may feel that they are inferior to others, which shows that they do not value themselves. To improve one's self esteem, he/she must  have self-respect. If you respect yourself, it makes others want to respect you, which persuades you to value yourself.  Being confident of one self and the belief that '' I can do it'' makes a person value himself more. Having self esteem not only upgrades you, but also improves you by giving various chances and giving you a feeling to create various choices you have never made before. Believing that, even if you have your own demerits, you also have merits making others want to applaud for you also help you to favor yourself more.
