The motivation to promote and protect a self-view of being competent, attractive, lucky, ethical, valued, and so forth is called self-enhancement. This involves trying to enhance one's self-esteem and positive self-image. Self-glorification and narcissism are related concepts, but they refer to a more extreme form of self-enhancement where individuals have an inflated view of their abilities and accomplishments. Self-esteem and self-efficacy are also related to self-enhancement, but they refer more specifically to the individual's perception of their worth and ability to achieve their goals, respectively.
