Self-esteem is closely related to Self-acceptance.
Self-esteem is about evaluating oneself positively based on one's own standards and achievements, while self-acceptance is about being comfortable and embracing oneself as one is, imperfections and all. Both are important for a healthy sense of self, but they involve different aspects of self-evaluation and self-attitude.
Self-acceptance is a precondition for true self-esteem.
