I think that unless you experience some let down in life, you can not truely appreciate success, and also that if at some point in the life of someone who is not use to "being let down," it could be rougher for them to cope with rather than someone who has great self-efficacy. Great Self-efficacy gives you hope, low self-esteem gives you hindrances. The other statements issued by the other responders are true.

YES. School did that to me. I had the particular aptitudes to succeed in the school system, of my day, without effort. So never learned how to learn or achieve by making an effort. re “In fact, if success comes too easily, some people never master the ability to learn from criticism.”

Personally, I must have high self-efficacy because I persisted in trying to sell my book to a publisher despite a steady barrage of rejections and ultimately succeeded. On the other hand, I don't think I could ever be confused with someone who has high self-esteem.
