self-opinion

How you view yourself

Self-opinion is a person's assessment of their own worth or abilities.

The word usually carries a negative connotation—someone with a high self-opinion thinks too well of themselves: His self-opinion far exceeded his actual talents.

The related adjective self-opinionated describes someone stubbornly attached to their own views.
