Without self-acceptance and self-esteem life becomes a battle raged from within, a never-ending struggle to comply with other people's ideas of what our life should be and how we should live it.
Self-Esteem
Though often linked together, self-acceptance and self-esteem are a little different. With a healthy self-esteem, we are able to appreciate ourselves; we can recognize our positive qualities and use our valuable abilities to propel ourselves forward.
This helps us to achieve and accomplish, which in turn enhances our sense of self-esteem, adding to our sense of self-worth. Through self-esteem we validate our being and know that our life is somehow worthwhile.
Self-Acceptance
Self-acceptance denotes something even broader, and perhaps more profound. With it we are able to encompass and adopt all aspects of ourselves, even those darker parts that rankle and sometimes feel awkward -- the "shadow" parts.
With self-acceptance comes the ability to acknowledge our limitations and weaknesses, to accommodate our inner darkness -- as well as our moments of blinding light -- without allowing these aspects to destroy our balance or eclipse our sense of self-esteem.
And it is possible to do this while still committing to a lifetime of personal growth, but this means taking whatever harsh self-judgment we might have been passing on ourselves and transforming it into understanding and compassion
