A lack of self-respect can prevent you from fulfilling your potential and developing healthy relationships. Here are some steps to help you know how to respect yourself.
__________  The  qualities  that  we  respect  vary  from  person  to  person,  and  the  way  we express it varies from culture to culture. Generally, we respect people who have more experience and are more accomplished  than ourselves. But  there  is  also a basic  level of  respect  that most people will  agree  is  a  right,  and  does  not  need  to be  earned. So  think  about what  it means  to respect others. Here are some widely agreed-upon signals of respect: You don’t steal from, harm, or  insult  them; you are honest with  them; you  listen  to what  they say, consider  their opinions, and avoid interrupting them.
__________ We  often  do  things  for  ourselves  that  we  would  never  dream  of  doing  for someone we care about. Whatever you believe to be respectful, apply it to yourself. Don’t harm yourself. Don’t insult yourself. Don’t steal from yourself. Be honest with yourself. Develop your own opinions and don’t be afraid to stand by them.
__________ A person with self-respect doesn’t allow others to treat them badly, and would rather not be around someone who is disrespectful. This might seem obvious, but there are many times when we accept being  treated badly. When someone doesn’t give you basic  respect, you need to be able to say, in one way or another, “You just disrespected me and that’s not acceptable!
If you don’t respect me, I won’t spend time with you any more.” Can you say that, and mean it?
Can you turn your back on someone who’s clearly shown that they don’t respect you? Once you do, you’ll feel your sense of self-respect go up.
__________ When you make an effort to keep your body in good working order, you’ll not only feel better physically, but also  feel a sense of pride. Respecting your body also means not insulting it for what it is, naturally. Make an effort to get fit and stay healthy. Focus on the things you can change and improve, and do them because it feels good.
__________ The more  you  know  about  yourself,  the more  you’ll  see  and  appreciate  how unique you  really are. And you’ll  respect yourself more. Discover your principles, personality, and  talents. Stop waiting  for other people’s approval and start developing your own standards. Develop a unique and original way of expressing your opinions while at the same time being a good listener.
