Your SELF RESPECT gotta be stronger than your feelings.

Get up early. Stay focused. Watch less TV. Read more books. Avoid time wasters. Invest in your health. Take calculated risks. Write down your goals. Work smarter, not harder. Do something you believe in. Foster meaningful relationships.

Heartwarming story: Little girl doesn’t have to do anything to fund her dad’s surgery because his expenses are covered by his country’s universal healthcare.

Gas yourself up. Build yourself up. Compliment yourself often. Just love yourself without apologizing for it.
