Mentality

I disagree completely. There is absolutely a middle-ground between a 'high' sense of self-esteem (IE. You esteem yourself very highly) and a 'low' sense of self-esteem (IE. You esteem yourself very lowly) All kinds of people, I would go so far as to say the majority of people, have a perfectly reasonable and realistic opinion of themselves. They know they have some fine qualities, they know they have some poor qualities, and understand the problems inherant in trying to compare one's "quality" to someone else's.

Those people have, as opposed to high or low, GOOD self-esteem.
