No
No. self-worth is highly subjective.
True, I am just confused as to how people measure themselves internally vs. how they are viewed by others around them(external). To be honest, if I was looking at resumes, I most probably would pick the guy from Harvard over some nontarget like myself, but how should I deter myself from undervaluing my own worth? I do not have a inferiority complex, but it certainly feels discouraging in some instances, especially since one of most asked question of me at interviews is" why I chose to school I did?. Basically why I am going to a shitty university comparatively? Certainly, a specific track of good high to great college to BB...etc. is glorified on this site and when viewing profiles on the sites of banks, this "track" is apparent and highly obvious. Am i incorrect in gaining this superficial view?
You only have to be concerned about how you measure yourself.
self worth = [.25(net worth)+(1000/(us news college ranking)+15(number of facebook friends)+22(SAT score)]^(dick length)
