Over the years we have always known and seen different types or kinds of people, possessing different traits and characters based on some certain criterias or factors like age, nationality, region, religion etc. Living in a world or on a planet where there are almost or soon to be 10billion people it is bound for us to have feuds, misunderstandings, and individual differences as we already know that no 2 people are the same, also interests, plans and goals will never be the same and that automatically gives us a very beautiful chaos that looks organised. NOw every single person wants to stand out and be distinctive or very valuable to themselves, family or the society at large and there is only one way in the wolrd to achieve this in peace and that is SELF RESPECT.
What is Self Respect? Self respect has a very big difference from ego or pride. It is not discriminating or disassociating from people or the world at large but it is about how you behave and treat yourself based on values and morals. some people mistake self respect for self esteem but for free i'd tell you they are not the same thing, self esteem is all about how you feel about yourself and your abilities, it is often based on performance or external validation but self respect? thats something that comes from within just like a discipline or a core value.
We live in a world where there is so much pressure and uneccessary chaos, which makes it hard to find focus and stay grounded but if you have some respect for yourself i promise it would be very easy for you to survive and live a willful life, you get to decide everything for yourself and live without being pressured.
A lot of people are silently dealing with very low self respect without them even knowing , while some others are having to face it because there is no choice or they just have to survive. Most times they over explain things even when an explanation is not neccessary or when they just have to be silent, sometimes they tolerate some certain levels of disrespect that the other party would definitely not accept but for some reason they let it be which is very wrong for your self respect. Begging for attention is another major sign of low self respect or presence of none. I mean why do we have to beg for attention? clearly that shows that self respect is depreciating and it also makes the other party devalue you as well. We should learn to prioritise self respect to live a happier life.
If you need to gain your SELF RESPECT back ive got you! just do these simple steps:
create certain boundaries for people, detach from situations calmly and do not react to everything you see. Place more value on yourself by investing your time and money to be more productive ad knowleadgeable. In relationships it is very vital, whether as friends or as lovers, if you want a peaceful and long lasting relationship you have to respect yourself because when you show some respect to yourself every other person will adjust to your standard.
