Strong article Woodring...
I can't wait to read people's response to the low self-esteem issue you have raised.
Your list is so extensive (albeit true in many cases for many people) that one could argue that 95% of the world is infected with low self-esteem.
In any event, I also submitted an article entitled "Pursue Your Haitian Passion" (http://www.fouyemotivation.com/articles.php/2...) which i use when speaking at middle and high schools.
Stay well and blessed...
