You Disrespect Yourself When …

We disrespect ourselves when we don't 
pay attention to our lives,
when we are too busy to take care of
ourselves, when we can't stand up for ourselves.

We disrespect ourselves when we don't 
reject other people's opinions.
We disrespect ourselves when we 
don't do what we say we are going to do.

We disrespect ourselves when we 
are not true to ourselves.

But you can change yourself.
Start by treating yourself with love,
With respect.
When you respect yourself, 
others will respect you.
When you treat others with respect,
other people will treat you with respect.

You respect yourself when you love
yourself, when you accept yourself
as you are, and when you accept 
your weaknesses.

You respect yourself when you 
choose yourself, when you choose life.

Accept Who You Are

Life starts with you. 
When you accept yourself, you expand yourself. 
When you love yourself, you expand your life. 

No matter what is going on in your life, 
accept yourself for who you are. 

If you want other people to accept you, 
you must first accept yourself. 
If you want other people to love you, 
you must love yourself. 

Do not forget that everything in your life starts with you. 
If you don't love yourself, you are rejecting yourself. 
If you do not accept yourself, you are not for yourself. 
You are against yourself. You are against your dreams. 
You are against your goals. 
And you are against your future. 

Accept yourself for who you are. 
No one is perfect, including yourself. 
So no matter what, do not beat yourself up. 
Because if you love yourself, you will not reject yourself. 
You will celebrate yourself. 
If you accept yourself, you will not reject yourself. 
You will not do anything to hurt yourself, your life. 

You are responsible for accepting yourself, 
for giving yourself love. 
Do not wait for others to love you 
before you love yourself. 
Do not wait for others to improve your life. 
No one is going to do it for you.

 It is you and only you are resposnsible for your life. 
You and only you are responsible for loving yourself, 
for making your life better, for creating a new path for yourself. 

If you want others to treat you well, 
you must first treat yourself well. 
If you want others to love you, 
you must first love your life. Because it is your life.
