【PragerU】為甚麼我說“自尊心”是阻礙進步的 Why Self-Esteem Is Self-Defeating

The speaker argues that self-esteem is a meaningless fabrication and a form of \"unearned confidence.\" He distinguishes self-esteem from genuine confidence, which must be earned through hard work and skill. By focusing on feeling special rather than achieving actual competence, individuals stifle their own growth and avoid the necessary self-critique required for improvement.
