Self-respect

Self Respect is a quality which is extremely important for the dignity, confidence and personality of an individual. People with self respect have the courage of accepting their mistakes. They exhibit certain toughness, a kind of moral courage and they display character. Without self respect, one becomes an unwilling audience of one’s failing both real and imaginary. To live without self respect is to live counting ones omissions and commissions] It is like lying down on an uncomfortable bed that we have made for ourselves! Whether or not we sleep in it depends on whether or not we respect ourselves. A self respecting person accepts responsibilities for one’s own life and its this source from which self respect springs. Such people are always willing to accept risks. They invest some thing of themselves in what they undertake to do and when they play they know the odds. Self respect is a kind of discipline, a habit of the mind that can never fail an individual.
