Love, Value & Respect

DanieRose Enterprise Motivational Notes: “Wake-up Everyday and Feel Awesome”

Love, Value & Respect

“LOVE YOURSELF” is one of the many advices I usually give to others.  Hence, everyday, these are the best words I say to MYSELF. In my “I LOVE” verse - a routine declaration which I discussed in my previous blog http://danierosemarciano.blogspot.com/2014/05/bathroom-routines.html 

"I LOVE MYSELF” is on the top of the list in that verse.  Yes, it should be above all lists because when we have an “Abundance of Love” for ourselves, then we will have “Infinite Love” to share to others.  Imagine how hard it is to give love to any person if there is a shortage of love inside us.  Love yourself and you will nurture love back.  Love should always be a two-way street.  It can be poisonous when only expressed in an egocentric and selfish manner.  Being self-centred is the opposite of loving yourself: it actually means hating yourself.  For you to love yourself, you must know how to accept yourself.  It is with this realization that you will understand the true essence of Love and Self-Value.

“VALUE YOURSELF”.  Love is Value.  When we look in the mirror, sometimes we see within ourselves that some things are not right.  When we reflect on our actions and misfortunes, sometimes we say to ourselves that some things are needed to be changed.  Our reactions to correct and change us are avenues to put meaning to our lives – to value ourselves.  This is the awakening part of your life wherein you will strive to be good and to do better daily.  This will push you to reach for your dreams and strive for what you deserve best.  When you learn to value yourself, you will recognize your true worth – that you are awesome!  Therefore, we must aim to be the best versions of ourselves every single day.  Giving true value to yourself is like putting fuel in your engine, it will keep you moving forward.  Without this energy, you will be trapped in a place you do not like.  The progress of our Self-Value is the beginning of our Self-respect.

“RESPECT YOURSELF”.  As the saying goes, “Respect is not asked, it must be earned.”  This philosophy applies not only in the relationship of one person to another, but more importantly applies to your relationship with yourself.  Like love, you cannot give others the respect they deserve if you lack respect for your own being.  Letting others abuse or take advantage of you does not mean that you are kind-hearted; it only means that you are disrespecting yourself.  If you love yourself, then fighting for your right and standing for your values is a sign that you respect yourself.  Self-respect and Self-value, therefore, is a product of our Self-Love.

Love, Value and Respect are the key ingredients to one’s Progress, Importance and Happiness.

Thank You and God Bless Us All Always!
