With low self-esteem, individuals may be more fearful of failure and less likely to take risks or try new things. They may also be more prone to negative self-talk and self-criticism. On the other hand, individuals with high self-esteem tend to have a more positive outlook, are more likely to take on challenges, and are more resilient in the face of setbacks. They are also more likely to engage in positive self-reflection and strive for personal improvement.
