Quote

I got this quote today. I've been thinking a lot about Self Esteem.

The Importance of Self-Esteem

“Self-esteem goes to the very heart of our personal growth and accomplishment. It is the glue that holds together our self-reliance, our self-control, our self-approval or disapproval and keeps all self-defense mechanisms secure. It is a protection against excessive self-deception, self-distrust, self-reproach, and plain old-fashioned selfishness.”

James E. Faust, “The Value of Self-Esteem,” CES fireside for young adults, May 6, 2007
