Self Worth

Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the floor each morning the devil says, “Oh crap, she’s up!’ If you’ve been criticizing yourself for year’s and it hasn’t worked. Try improving yourself and see how that works. In everything you do, be a pineapple, stand tall, wear a crown and be sweet on the inside. If you care about what people always think, you will always be their prisoner. That’s why violence was initiated in the first place. Give a well deserved knock to everyone who intimidates you.

When you realize your self worth, you will stop giving people discount. And that’s why I have decided not to force anything anymore. If you find yourself constantly trying to prove your worth to someone, you have already lost your value. When you start seeing your self worth, you will find it harder to stay around people who don’t. People tend to take advantage of you whenever they realize you are comprising yourself or happiness for them. Stop that shit this year. Be with whoever wants you and not who needs you because you’re available.

If you don’t value yourself, then don’t expect anyone else to value you. And that’s the mistake some of us make. Our cloud heads lead us to certain people who manipulate us just to get what they want from us. Your value doesn’t decrease based on someone’s inability to see your worth. It decreases when you try to impress the wrong people. The quickest way to acquire self confidence is to do exactly what you’ve been afraid to do. That’s why I would be making some decisions this month. Some of you would be glad, some of you would be shocked. In the worst way though.

I have a low self esteem problem, which is really ridiculous considering how amazing I am. When you find it hard to maintain relationships, friendships and even personal promises, you have a problem with low self esteem. You don’t push people away because you are better than they are. You do that because you’re scared to be judged or criticised. You’re always scared you may never be enough for some people and that’s why you push everyone else away and when you can’t push them away, you do everything to keep them in your life. Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to lose people. They are not worth your time. Don’t force it.

You are perfect, exactly as you are. With your flaws and problems, there’s no need to change anything. All you need to change is the thought that you have to change. Sometimes, walking away is the only option. Not because you want to make someone miss you or realize they took you for granted. But because you finally respect yourself enough to know you deserve better. Remember that the world sees what you put out there, so hold yourself to a high standard of elegance. And if you have fallen before from grace, pick up yourself and begin again with dignity.

I have an everyday religion, love myself first and everything else falls in line. And if something or someone is struggling to fall in line, help them by pushing them out. They are not meant for you. Never allow someone to be your priority while allowing yourself to be their option. The worst pain is realizing that you’re an option to someone you made your priority. No relationship is ever worth sacrificing your dignity or self respect for. Don’t waste words on people who deserve your silence. Sometimes, the most powerful thing you can say is nothing at all.

I have this weird self esteem issue, where I hate myself but still think I am better than everyone else. And that’s why I can’t settle for less. Maturity is learning to walk away from people or situations that threaten your peace of mind, self respect, values, morals and self worth. Know Your worth, then add tax. You can’t be cheap because you’re worth more than that. Sometimes, I look myself in the mirror and be like “this find @ss queen is too great to settle for less. I have potentials and I need someone to build them and not dilute them with their foolishness.” Period.

When you try to make things better for someone or some people, you may end up making things worse for yourself. A little self sacrifice is noble but depriving yourself too much will onlmfy leave you depleted. By that time, they won’t realize that you actually need anything because you are the one who has always given. Take care of yourself, self preservation is not selfish. It’s essential to live a full and happy life. Don’t be with someone who exploits you because you care. Be with someone who respects you because you care. Always have your terms and conditions for everyone to abide with. And if they can’t, don’t feel bad to let them go. You don’t lose real people, we only lose idiots masquerading as friends. You don’t know what you have until you lose it is a quote for crazy people. I always know the value of what I have. So whatever or whoever I let go of or lose…

Doesn’t have any value!!
