Can you have self esteem but be humble at the same time?



Answers:
Yes. Humility is not lack of self-respect. Being humble is to not be stuck up and consider yourself better than others just because you have more money, better looks, better car etc. Having high self-esteem is knowing that you are no less than anyone else and deserve to be treated with respect. Essentially someone with high-self esteem expects to be treated like everyone else and someone who is humble treats others like everyone else.
I believe so, yes.
yes! self esteem means you are happy with yourself. as long as you don't go around bragging about it to everyone, you would still be humble.
They are not opposites of each other. You can be quite confident in yourself (self esteem) whilst being humble (thanking people for compliments etc)
Absolutely, healthy self esteem is balanced = neither low nor high. It means that you accurately recognize your strengths and weaknesses.
Yes. Humility is gratitude. I have self esteem because I am a good salesperson. I can be humble if I bear in mind that my people skills are a gift from God and that a lot of people have helped me along the way.
Of course you can , there is nothing stopping you having great self esteem but also being humble.
Yes, the two are unrelated. People confuse self esteem with being a braggard or being overconfident and self-centered. Self esteem is about repecting yourself and having confidence in your value as a person. Being humble is about recognizing that others also have great talents, skills, and abilities.
Of course you can, otherwise it's bordering on arrogant!
easy, jus dnt b cocky
Having self esteem does not mean you think you are better than everyone else. Self esteem means you have confidence within yourself but are non judgemental at the same time.
Yes you can.
of course.having self esteem does not mean you're an ego-maniac
Yes.
Humility is the result of good self esteem. If you believe in yourself and at the same time know your limitations, your feet is always on the ground.
Yes.
yes of course. self esteem is very important to have to get through life and to live it to the full. Humility is a gift. seek it, treasure it and be thankful for it.
WoW. What a killer question.

I get the idea that you are of the understanding that these two are the opposites of each other! ..like Love & Hate.

Error. Error.

The opposite to Love is 'Indifference.'

So, what is the opposite to Self Esteem then?

That will be your homework for this week.
