People With High Self-Respect Reject These 5 Behaviors

You can’t control how others act, but you can control what you tolerate from them.

There’s a silent question that our subconscious asks every single day without us even realizing it:

“What type of treatment am I willing to accept today?”

We ask this question in our relationship, in our workplaces, in our family lives, in our friendships — we just don’t often phrase it so clearly.

The answer, however, is reflected in our decisions and it is decided by our level of self-worth.

Think of it this way:

Your self-worth is a little guy or gal sitting in front of two buttons — accept, or reject.

Every time someone treats you a certain way, your self-worth decides which button to push. Do we accept this treatment, or reject it?

Weaker or lower self-worth will press accept more often than not because it doesn’t hold very high standards for itself. It just lets whomever, and whatever, through the doors.

The stronger that self-worth gets, the higher its standards are for the treatment it accepts.
