Self-esteem is relatively important for one to be successful at anything, including such things as careers, sports, maintaining health and happiness, and to have fun in life! Now, I do not mean be "cocky" or overly-confident, but realize that each and every one of you is important and worthy of good things. Realize that you deserve anything that you want, and you will earn it.
As an example, when you love someone you will speak fondly about/to them and you will become happy. The complete opposite occurs when you speak of someone whom you dislike. This is exactly what happens to your self-esteem when you love or talk negatively about yourself. Throughout the past few years, I have had several times when my self-esteem was significantly lowered. It helped me to make a list of things that I have accomplished throughout college and high school, and look upon the relationships I have in my life. When I get upset about roommates or friends, I know that I have one BEST friend and she irreplaceable. This makes me realize that I am very lucky since many people do not have that.
Try replacing negative words with positive in order to solve self-esteem issues. It is important to always try and be positive because life is too short to see only the negative in everything.
