Self-esteem is more a person 's idea of his or her own self-worth, which can be related or unrelated to his or her abilities. The key word that separates the two is idea. In self efficacy a person knows his or her ability, Baack stated, "The expectation that you will succeed evolves over a series of years. Where as with self esteem it is all in their head, high self esteem or low self esteem.
