I think this is the opposite of what the article was saying.
The article says that instead of looking for "self-esteem" from your successes (and avoiding failures), you should stop chasing self-esteem altogether, and instead choose self-compassion.
> it is critical for your survival and success
I think the article is trying to say "It's okay not to succeed, go easy on yourself."
