That was a bit surprising......but actually quite accurate. Not arrogant. I just have never depended on my worth being defined by anyone else but me & yet I still love it when my friends challenge my thinking. I continually want to grow & improve myself & learn something new everyday. Do new things & enjoy life & the people around me. Have always felt that I could do anything I really wanted to.....I just have to do it. I learned that when I was really young & wanted to keep up with the neighborhood boys, being an only child girl.....if I wanted to do things, I just had to do the things that came up in my life....then would end up enjoying them after getting over the initial fear/stress, or whatever.

Also learned from my parents as their self-esteem was low & they always got left out of a lot of things in life. I never wanted to end up like they did emotionally.

Thanks for sharing,

Debbie

My sense of self worth is:Self Esteem "test"!Self Esteem "test"! 56Self Esteem "test"!Self Esteem "test"!Your results indicate that your opinion of yourself is generally positive, but your sense of self-worth isn’t as strong as it could be. You sometimes put yourself down, falling victim to your own self-depreciating statements. An unstable sense of self-worth can result from a wide range of factors: perhaps you've recently gone through a particularly difficult period in your life, or you didn't get the support you needed from others when you were growing up. The important thing however, is not to figure out who/what is to blame; it is to recognize that it's now up to you to boost your self-image. There are certain attitudes and beliefs that have been found to contribute to and "feed" a negative self-image, and you appear to have some of them. Examples would be believing that you don’t deserve to be loved or respected, believing that you’re not good enough for someone, and focusing only on your perceived faults rather than good qualities. While you may not necessarily feel all of these things all of the time, there may be a few that are ingrained in your mindset to the point that they are surely affecting your life. You may not even realize it, but these beliefs can discourage you from pursuing your goals, cause you unnecessary stress, and even become self-fulfilling prophecies. A slight change in mindset could really make a difference in your life.

96... wow!! I was shocked!

Your results indicate that your sense of self-worth is very healthy. You rarely, if ever, put yourself down or fall victim to self-depreciating statements. There are certain attitudes and beliefs that have been found to contribute to and "feed" a positive self-image, and you appear to have most of them. Examples would be believing that you deserve to be loved or respected, believing that you’re good enough for someone, and focusing on your good qualities rather than only your perceived faults. While you may not necessarily feel all of these things all of the time, your opinion of yourself is quite positive. This is a healthy attitude to have, as a poor sense of self-worth can hold you back from pursuing your goals, cause you unnecessary stress, and even become self-fulfilling prophecies.

Meh, 40.
