Its all about Self Respect !

Today's topic is self respect
Nothing in this world is more important than - Self Respect and Self Esteem.

A lot of people think self respect is all about "How you treat yourself"?
Sometimes you are told -"Respect others and sometimes you put yourself in the last and you are busy pleasing everyone else" 
This is wrong!

Self Respect is not only about how you treat yourself but also about : "How you let others Treat you"

No opportunity is greater than self respect.

One of my Previous-boss from my last company recently  (about 4 months ago) wrote a message to me on Linked in - "Sree why dont you come to China i have a wonderful opportunity for you and China is data rich and the single most fastest growing country in the world , your experience is the exact match for this post"

AND I REMEMBERED  THIS.





for me getting a Job in China , Hongkong or even Singapore is easier than fetching a job in India because of my strong expertise in APAC having Managed top clients like P&G APAC.

I turned down the opportunity , with a belief that any time i can go to china .I understand that-
Opportunity has  never been a problem for any one who have the right skills and capabilities.
As most of you are aware that i gave up a very good job offer from Ogilvy -Hongkong and decided to take up an assignment in India . 
respect my skills and capabilities and self respect is the foundation of every decision we make in life . I know that anytime i call up my Previous boss and tell him that i want to chose to drive analytics in China.

What is self respect?
When you are alone ask yourself what is self respect?
Self respect is not about belittling some one or trying to put someone down
When you start realizing that you have become a Door Mat consistently give things to others without anything in return (RESPECT)  it means that you dont self love and you have now lost self love- be it family or friends or peers or siblings.

Self love is the most important love , to accomplish great things in life -follow your heart!
Chose to be strong and chose to be true.




Do what you like , Travel , freedom etc etc..





The importance of self respect  is the foundation of existence and cannot be underestimated.
Respect is the source of mental health ,
It is all about how valuable and important you think you are ?
I believe that -"Iam as strong as that Mountain"
Respect your authentic self and your values and beliefs



Self Respect is also -Respect your friends



Self Respect is also about respecting elders who have mentored you and coached you and helped you build a career .




Self Respect  is the first step in believing in yourself which builds self confidence.
Self respect will give you a sense of direction to approach problems with a different perspective and allows you to make correct choices and take action that you can be proud of.

Respect the company around you who are from different parts of the world





Assuming responsibility for your own goals and desires.
After all our Indian national emblem mentions -  SatyamevaJayate meaning - Truth alone triumphs
Once you understand this foundation that - Truth Alone Triumphs , you will get all the strength and ability to handle any criticism and you will never be afraid of walking alone,

You assume the responsibility of your own actions and choices and not depend on anyone for anything.





Self Respect will give you the Strength and Ability to handle criticism easily.
Dont feel pressured to make everyone like you ...understand when to say - NO

In Short ,Self respect is a source of positive mental health and also a source of happiness
Self respect is to stand up for yourself and to assume all the responsibility of all your actions by yourself .

So today iam dedicating a song to each and every one of you there !
Although it is not related to self respect , its a good song .
