Great question. Read this excerpt from, The Nature Of Personal Reality, by Jane Roberts

Affirmation means saying "yes" to yourself and to the life you lead, and to accepting your own unique person-hood. That affirmation means that you declare your individuality. Affirmation means that you embrace the life that is yours and flows through you.Your affirmation of yourself is one of your greatest strengths. You can at times quite properly deny certain portions of experience, while still confirming your own vitality. You do not have to say "yes" to people, issues, or to events with which you are deeply disturbed. Affirmation does not mean a bland wishy-washy acceptance of anything that comes your way, regardless of your feelings about it. Biologically, affirmation means health. You go along with your life, understanding that you form your experience, emphasizing your ability to do so. Affirmation does not mean sitting back and saying,"I can do nothing. It is all in Fate's hands, therefore, whatever happens, happens." Affirmation is based upon the realization that no other consciousness is the same as your own, that your abilities are uniquely yours and like no others. It is the acceptance of your individuality in flesh. Basically it is a spiritual, psychic , and biological necessity, and represents your appreciation of your singular integrity....

Self worth is your ability, or lack of it, to appreciate yourself. Most people have little ability to see what they are, rather having been raised to think about themselves in a certain way, usually negatively. One example is Original Sin as practiced by many Christians. Young people are told they are bad from birth, and only if they learn to please God will they at all be ok. That aside, most of us are raised to judge ourselves by other people's standards of how you look, what grades you get, what clothes you wear, how much money you have etc. The result is that we lose the ability to see what we reallly are, instead of we are failing in some way by other people's standards.
You can gain in self worth simply by paying attention to everything you do and thereby see how really successful you are moment by moment. Once you see how good you are in all the little things you do, then you can learn to appreciate your real value on your own, not by comparing yourself to others.

Self worth comes from realizing that God paid the highest price that could be paid to redeem you from destruction - the blood of His Son Jesus Christ. You know how much something is worth by what someone is willing to buy it for. God is no fool. If He paid so much to redeem us, then we are exceedingly precious. I find my self worth in that, because I believe Jesus Christ died on a cross to save me. If you are not sure He died to save you, read the First Letter (Epistle) of John, chapter 2, verse 2 - then go back and read the whole Gospel of John.
Peace to you.
