Self-respect should be the most important and crucial thing in every human being because I believe that if a person doesn't have self-respect then he is of no use because without self-respect a person is nowhere and sometimes lost, he cannot speak anything, he has no validation at all, but a person who has confidence and self-respect can take amazing decisions everywhere and can show himself as completely powerful because self-respect is important, this is the one thing that will make you realize what your value is and tell you a story about yourself and how much value you have, rather the one who only exists within him.

Many people think that self-respect means being one or being arrogant, that is completely wrong, ego means that you consider yourself to be above everything else, you consider yourself a priority, and self-respect means that you understand that you neither disrespect anyone nor does anyone disrespect you, this is the difference, in ego and self-respect it means that you insult the other person and you want that he should not insult you but this does not happen in self-respect, in self-respect there is a mutual and good understanding from both sides due to which both the people respect each other a lot.

If you ever feel that a place does not respect you, you should directly leave that place, take it silently because where there is no self-respect it means if someone does not respect you there then you have to quietly leave from there because they do not consider you as anything, if they do not ask you for anything then what difference does it make if you come or not, everyone should understand this, how important self-respect is, there are many people who give up their respect for anyone whether it is a relationship or friendship, they think that they are joking but they actually insult you, there is a huge difference between joking and insulting.

Self-Respect, you also need to learn how to be confident, not just in your achievements, appearance, and existence, and your validation, all of this is so important, you need to learn self-respect, there are many people who unnecessarily dub you or make fun of you in every situation so you need to learn self-respect, how to be confident, what to say in that situation, and what not to say whenever you are presented with a challenge, if you always keep your self-respect with you then you can never fail to lose it and you will get a new learning at every step.

Moreover, self-respect acts as your shield, it is such a shield that makes you afraid of negative influence, whenever you see that you are not respected at that place you will quietly walk away from there, what happens because of this, if the person in front of you is negative then you do not have any influence on him and this is a very important thing because in today's time there is so much love pressure, comparison on social media, and so much discrimination between societies, in between all this if you keep self-respect then you will never compromise at any place and you will always have strong self-respect.

Building self-respect is very time-consuming but once you learn it you should learn it in small steps like setting boundaries, saying no to something that someone wants to do is also a big thing, if you are unwilling then you should say no to that person, but if someone wants to extract work from you without any reason then you should always make a boundary in front of him, keep your mind call and body very strong, stay with people who respect you and not those who don't

If I tell you my personal experience, there was a time when I had made a lot of good friends in school and college. But they always ignored me. Whenever I told them anything or took any decision, they made fun of me, and everyone always thought that I didn't know anything. Yes, I may be at fault in some places where I did not understand this thing. But I cannot be wrong everywhere. Gradually people started teasing me more. Then they started making me do such BFs that I don't know anything. I don't know anything, so all this is a matter of confidence. Then I understood that these people don't even respect me. Then I left that group immediately, and I always ran with only one friend of mine, because he used to listen to me. He used to understand me. I used to respect him. He considered it the most important because respect is the thing in which friendship is seen. If you don't respect the other person, then why would you have any friends.

Lastly, self-respect is a very big gift, if you have such self-respect for yourself, if you can set a boundary for yourself then you will always be emotionally and mentally peaceful and you will become a very strong man and this is a very important thing, whether it is in a relationship or in a friendship, self-respect should always be there because if you do not give self-respect, if you do not give respect to each other then nothing will last for long, there are many challenges in life, but if you give such priority to self-respect then confidence will come in you, dignity will come, and you will feel that you can defeat any difficulty and you can see yourself as a winner.
