What is the difference between low self esteem and conceit?

Low self-esteem is a sign that you think you are humble and have too little self-confidence; Conceit, on the other hand, is a sign of being confident but overconfident. Both of these states of mind are undesirable, and the best state is neither humble nor arrogant, neither too humble nor too confident.

Low self-esteem is when a person has no confidence in himself, has no self-confidence, is afraid that he is inferior to others, and questions his own abilities. The conceit is that you think you are very good, you can do everything well, and others are worse than you.

These are the two extremes, low self-esteem is caused by a lack of self-confidence, which is a serious self-deprecation, self-deprecation behavior, and conceit is overconfidence, resulting in self-righteousness and a strong sense of self-esteem and superiority.

Low self-esteem is extreme self-denial, not believing in oneself, and not having any self-confidence. To be conceited is to be too confident, to think that you are good at everything, to think that you are the best person in the world.

Low self-esteem is due to a lack of self-confidence, which leads to self-timidity and cowardice, and conceit is that oneself is overconfident, obviously incapable, but feels that he is very good.

Low self-esteem is the feeling that you are not perfect enough and you feel that you have no advantage, and conceit is that you trust yourself too much and feel good about yourself.

Low self-esteem is to think too low about oneself and not believe in oneself, and conceit is to think too highly of oneself and believe in oneself too much, these two are the opposite.

The difference is that low self-esteem makes people negative and pessimistic, loses their enterprising spirit, and gives up on themselves, while conceit is the bane of failure and keeps people away from success.

People with low self-esteem despise themselves, often do not see their own abilities, even if they can do well, they do not dare to try, conceited people think they are self-righteous, often overestimate themselves, look down on others, and are self-righteous.

There is a world of difference between low self-esteem and conceit.

1. Those with low self-esteem look down on themselves, and those who are conceited look down on themselves too much. But to get to the root of it, you can find the similarity between them, that is, neither of them can accurately evaluate themselves and do not have a correct understanding of themselves.

2. Low self-esteem is that you have no self-confidence in yourself, feel that you are inferior to others everywhere, and feel that you can't raise your head in the social circle of life. I don't want to make friends, and I don't dare to say what I think.

3. Conceit is overconfident in oneself, and I feel that I am right and the strongest everywhere. Some people who are not good at thinking are overconfident and called conceit.

4. From the perspective of psychology, people will encounter different psychological states at different stages, and there will be corresponding places that need to be adjusted, whether it is selfishness, inferiority, and conceit, which are very common psychological characteristics of human beings, and the key lies in the problem of degree.

5. Conceit is a protective mechanism for inferiority, and a person with strong inferiority complex is painful in the face of his true self, so imagine a false self-esteem to protect his self-esteem through conceit. Therefore, some people seem to be conceited, but in fact they have low self-esteem in their hearts. But conceit is not the solution to the problem of infiltration, and it will also hinder you from recognizing yourself and prevent you from solving the problem of inferiority.

Thank you very much for the invitation of the subject, low self-esteem and conceit are actually manifestations of lack of self-confidence. People with low self-esteem feel that there is no point in doing anything, and it is all wrong. Conceited people think they are better than everyone else, especially powerful.

Actually, none of them are worse. All of them have a relatively large impact on themselves.

When I hear the word inferiority, I think of my old self, when I was in middle school, I had low self-esteem for a period of time due to personal reasons. At that time, my academic performance was declining and there was no improvement. It felt like the whole world was collapsing.

Very lonely, miserable. Later, when I went to the middle school counseling room and consulted the doctor, I gradually built up my self-confidence.

My father was a conceited man, and he hadn't changed much in his mid-teens. He always thinks that many of his ideas and things are right, and no one else can do it. Even if you fail, you don't admit it after you make a mistake.

In fact, I know that he has an inferiority complex inside, but he is arrogant and arrogant on the surface.

So we look at low self-esteem and conceit as having a great impact on ourselves, and none of them is worse. We live in the world, and only by maintaining self-confidence can we live a better life, be more fulfilled and achieve a sense of happiness.

Many times, the root of conceit is having low self-esteem.

Because he used to come from a humble background, he was often looked down upon. When you become an adult, you have a little achievement, such as buying a house and a car, and you feel that you can be on an equal footing with those who once looked down on you, or even better than those people, so you have to look for the feeling that others looked down on you in the past. So began to be conceited.

As soon as people are conceited, they will naturally be full of loopholes and make frequent mistakes.

Comment: Most conceited people have low self-esteem in the past. But conceit and self-confidence are two different things. The easiest way to distinguish between self-confidence and conceit is to be conceited and disrespectful. And self-confident people, very respectful of others.
