Show Notes
Self-respect and respect from others are closely aligned. They are both something that everyone desires. Self-esteem is an admirable trait. It is something that we can recognize in another person by their actions, attitudes and demeanour.
When we see someone manifesting self-respect, we unconsciously respect them more. Conversely, it is harder to respect someone who exhibits little respect for themselves.
While on the surface, it is reasonable to assume that everyone deserves respect, this is tempered by the fact that many people do things that make them undeserving of the connection of other people.
Our self-respect is not a gift, nor is it fixed. We can strengthen our self-esteem by our thinking and our actions. It can also be diminished, even crushed, by our behaviours, and how these subsequently make us feel about ourselves.
Other people also can affect our self-respect, positively or negatively. The degree to which they can is a measure of how resilient we are and how healthy our self-esteem is.
This report can help you to understand the interaction between self-respect and respect from other people, and most importantly, how to increase both.
