Unconditional Positive Regard and Success
Unconditional positive regard emphasizes the belief that everyone is inherently worthy, regardless of external achievements. It provides a bedrock self-esteem that is not dependent on external validations like grades or performance. Perfectionism, on the other hand, often leads to a lack of self-worth and is not reliably linked to success. This concept is becoming increasingly important in a society where external validation, like on social media, can undermine one's sense of self-worth and lead to burnout.
