“Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. But to always pick on the weaknesses ? That’s just venting frustration. You don’t need to seriously listen to that. And such people, if you dig deeper, are usually worse than you. They’re certainly not less. Don’t let yourself suffer alone." - Selina”

“Don’t ever let anyone tell you that you are anything short of awesome. If someone tries to change you, starts picking on who you are, or questions your self-worth in any way, know that they are insecure with themselves and they cannot be genuine and kind. Always understand you deserve better than that in your life and you should never have to change for someone who truly loves you!”

“It is important to make a distinction between the concepts of self esteem and self-respect The word ‘esteem’ derives from a word meaning to estimate, self esteem is the intuitive estimate we make of our worth based on an assessment of our innate talents, abilities and the success we’ve had at getting what we want in life Individuals who know what they have going for themselves and are confident about their ability to get what they want can overly esteem themselves while never developing any legitimate self-respect. The word ‘respect’ literally means to look back. Self-respect arises, therefore out of a favorable retrospective assessment of ones personal effort, commitment to socially desirable goals and, if luck would it, achievement. To put it more simply, our sense of self esteem derives from what we know we have, while self-respect derives from what we’ve done with what we’ve been given.”
