Always be yourself

Never try to please someone else when you know that you’re going against your values. Often we give in to others requests,
not in so much because we want to do that certain thing, not because we are pleasing ourselves, not because it satisfies us in any way,but because it makes them accept us for who we are not. Or we go along because we want to be accepted in a world where everyone is so different. Now there we have it: in a world where everyone is different. Why then try so hard to please each other and putting our own self on a third place position? Shouldn’t you be first, shouldn’t we love and respect yourself first before we can do that for someone else?

Now throughout my life this is one thing I realized about this topic. Having a low self-esteem is the problem that leads people to act as mentioned earlier. Now this I didn’t copy from a study done in some year or by any scholar. A person with a low self-esteem is a broken person in that one is not capable of making sound decisions caused by an inability to analyze each situation independently. therefore decisions have to be made for such a person in order for them to feel assured. I believe that a low self-esteem is a disease with which many people live until the day they die. In many cases a low self-esteem led to suicide, which means that it’s still hard to know if one is suffering from this disease.

The sad thing about this is that a low self-esteem is caused by life experiences, hence the reason that those who attempted or committed suicide hated life because they know that life experiences caused them to suffer from a low self-esteem. This can influence ones entire live, their behavior and decision-making. Some will even pass this on to their children if they have a family. Often other people abuse the rights of those who suffer from a low self-esteem.
