Self esteem depends on your own self concept. In another word, what you care and what you matter most, when you are good at it, you feel good (boost self-esteem/confidence). Vice versa, if you are bad in things that you think it is important, you think you sucks (low self esteem/confidence). Easy ;p
Some living and pass example (P/S - Self esteem = SE, tired of repeating the same words again and again)
