If you have answered ‘yes’ to all of the above questions, then you already have high self esteem and strong self worth. If you have answered ‘yes’ to eight or more questions, then you have moderate self esteem which could still benefit from work to strengthen and improve it. If you have answered ‘yes’ to six or less of the questions, then you have low self esteem and it would be in your interest to think about ways of improving your self esteem and feeling more balanced and positive. Our self esteem can affect our behaviour , our communication skills and our sense of inclusion and well-being.
