If you are not being treated with respect & love, 'check yourself and your tag price'
You might have marked yourself down. If you take yourself for granted, people will treat you like a clown. No one can rely on you if you're standing very loose.
where you stand at times determines how people values you in life, and the price you put on yourself determines your worth.
Once you know your value and worth, how people values you becomes irrelevant.
Love yourself first before others join the trail.
If you are not sincere with yourself, how will you be sincere with people around you?
If you don't trust yourself, how will you trust people around you?

Therefore love yourself like no other. No one can loves you more than you love yourself.
