What is the impact of media on self-esteem?

The self-esteem jigsaw is comprised of a number of factors:

Having a goal

In anything you do your mind needs a "reason why" and the better this reason the easier it will be to go for the goal.

High Energy

If your energy is low, your feeling sick or in pain you don't want to do anything. A healthy body, healthy mind means high energy to put towards your task.

Focus

If your mind is jumping from one thought to another, distracting you from the "now" it is near impossible to get anything done or at least done well. So bringing your focus back to center is another piece of the success puzzle.

Positive Thinking

We are back to 'self talk' here. It's ok to question things, but it needs to be done in a way that is empowering and moves you forward.

Combine these together and you will have high self-esteem. The impact of media on self-esteem is quite often detrimental as commercials often make you desire goals that are unrealistic or not true to your nature, new media makes us jump focus from one thing to another and poor eating habits as a result of product marketing can lower our energy levels.

As you may judge from my thoughts I think the impact of media on self-esteem is a big fat negative.
