Self-esteem is earned by yourself, with yourself — by doing difficult things you know are right. What other people say, whether praise or insult, has zero impact on it; only the acts you perform that you know cost you something actually build it.

Progress equals happiness — not achievement, progress. You are not built just to reach goals but to grow; when you grow you have something to give, and that giving is what makes the progress feel like it matters.
