I don't know if it's the "best" way, because for real, different things work for people differently, so it's great to continue experimenting and trying to see what works for one the best. 

Personally what fuels my self-esteem is nurturing the belief I have in myself, I feel hehe.

In terms of an "activity", some people  find repeating affirmations to themself helpful. Also setting and achieving goals for yourself.

What have you tried so far to boost your self-esteem? Or would like to try?

I find doing something you like can uplift you. It helps solidify your wants and you get to enjoy the process of it while learning to appreciate your capabilities to do it. Examples would be arts and crafts, playing instruments, doing fashion and makeup, etc. so go for whatever makes you feel good about yourself and it can affect your self-esteem!

@yertletheturtle Wondering how to increase your low self-esteem almost always leads to starting activities and abandoning them, thus resulting in the opposite outcome. Those convinced to "suffer" from low self-esteem usually try to increase it by "doing things", that is looking at the finger instead of the moon. The cause of low self-esteem stays intact but is only temporarily hidden by activities such as hobbies, sports, social activities, etc.
