      Did you know that you can go to Heaven for free? This one decision can change your life and eternity forever. You've heard that Jesus Christ died and rose from the dead - it means He paid the price for your sins so you can be forgiven, saved and have a personal relationship with your Creator. All you have to do is be willing in your mind to have your life and heart changed, believe in your heart that Jesus rose from the dead and follow/seek Him daily. Watch how the Holy Spirit moves in your life.. much love and God bless you!!

      You're right.I recently distanced from my best friend. I always accepted her boundaries but she never mine. One day that just crossed the line, and I started behaving ,,weird'', she told me. We had a project and started arguing.Our teacher came and noticed, my friend played the victim and i was litereally the villain, the teacher protected her very much and didn't really see my side.First that crossed the line and when teacher was gone we continued working. I was pretty mad ( I almost lost control of my own body, that's not good ...) and then she just asked me why i'm not smiling at her and still look at her with those eyes ( my eyes say everthing I don't say or think ). That was the final move and my line was completely crossed. I also have the feeling that she always disrespected me, but I noticed to late.Because how can it be that she wants me to smile after arguing? Like a would be a puppet thst she controls.

    yes being a people pleaser isn't good but its also fine to do things for people without getting any benefit.
    that's what being a good person is - sometimes putting other people above you in the moment. i dont study well with others as well but i still study with my friend bc it helps him out.
    yeah i might be wasting time but that's all it is - time. time being spent with others or helping others isn't a waste.
    good video just putting it out there as i also struggle with being "selfish" vs "self-respect" and being a genuine and kind person/ good friend.
    challenging the way I think as sometimes I can fall into viewing friendships as transactional where i help you with this and you help me with that vs just helping others because i like to help people and that makes me happy

    • @Ronxhall

      I like this way of thinking, I think there’s a thin line between helping others and disrespecting yourself. For example, it may help for someone to have a study partner before a big test, but if I’m wasting the time knowing I’m not benefiting, I sabotage my own grade to help somebody else (and this scenario may have many outcomes, it depends on the person). I do agree that in moderation, helping others is not disrespecting yourself.

      When I was 16, I chose to live on the streets, trying to accomplish 2 things. I wanted to understand what it was like to be at absolute rock bottom, and I wanted to see if I could help people get out of it. I thought I was going to live like Jesus did. And while I learned more about human nature and psychology than any psychologist I've ever found online or in person.. I'm also dead broke, with no legitimate experience to put on paper, no college degree. I'm 29 now and I'm having to get a regular entry level job, where I will not be able to use my knowledge and skills. Thank goodness humans live so long these days. I might still have time to get a home and raise children before I'm 50

    For the longest time I've been the biggest people pleaser. Always laughed with people when they made fun of me, always did things for people out of fear that they'd dislike me, etc. but no more. I'm 25 now and I've finally had enough of being a pushover. I'm yet to put my new mentality into practice, but I'm a new man, a better man, and people, no matter who they are, will learn to respect me before I respect them, because respect goes both ways, and I think that's the greatest respect one can have for themselves.

  • @khairmoore
    @khairmoore 3 месяца назад +87

    you really hit it on the head by mentioning that it's in the little things-- all those little things do really add up to depreciation. staying up late when you know you should be resting, the studying with a friend when you know you actually won't get things done, the various forms of people pleasing is so true. Going to hang out just to accompany a friend, and prioritizing them over the things you have/want todo. You see this prob in drinking and smoking too, you may be ready to let go of old motions like getting high or drinking w your friends, but once the moment arises you betray all the thoughts you had to let it go just to be with the vibes. It's really hard to really say no, making other people happy really seems/feels like an addiction that never pays.
    I had an opposite journey, i was super about boundaries and saying no to anything that didn't serve me and everyone thought I was a dick (I still cared for people). But nontheless this video is right--people won't like you when you don't agree to their offers, advancements, asks. I'm vegan and rejecting others on various food situations always upsets people. All this "upsetting people" really made me feel terrible like maybe I was really a bad guy, so much that I thought my boundaries and no's maybe were toxic, so much that I bent all my rules and began to say yes to everything.
    I'm slowly making my way back to my old self, but maybe a middle ground. There is a balance to living, saying no, and making a compromise for others that serve you both or even just them if you can afford that.

    in addition to self respect we must also be mindful of self compassion and self acceptance. just because you dont do exactly what you set out to do that day or your willpower ran out doesnt mean you dont respect yourself, it means youre human and youre allowed to live your life and give in to desires sometimes. we shouldnt strive for perfection or being too serious in life. sometimes its better for your mental health to go to that party instead of study, sometimes its okay to numb your emotions when youre overwhelmed instead of doing something healthy. youre allowed to be flawed, not everything has to be about self respect. thats putting a lot of pressure on yourself to always make the 'right' decision. self respect is about self compassion and the acceptance that goes along with admitting that were all human, life is short, we all make mistakes and give in to desires or impulses and that completely okay.

In reality there’s no guarantee that someone in your life is going to be able to fulfil whatever it is you’re lacking and frankly they don’t owe it to you because you’re there for them. We do nice things for eachother because we have the capacity to care for people outside of us and some of us tie our entire identities to it whether that be for survival, wanting to belong or just not grasping who you are.

    At first i was trying to be friends with everyone. It felt weird, like i was compelled to do so. Saying hi to anyone and everyone. Got close to some people who i discovered never really considered me their friend and treated me bad when i was in a tough time and had a mental breakdown in front of them. Figured out that out of my 5 colleagues, only 1 was a true friend who really cared about me. Now I don’t say hi or approach anyone who i know wouldn’t say hi to me otherwise, its not worth it being around people who use up your emotional energy and don’t appreciate you. That’s my advice. Being a people pleaser/altruistic isn’t bad, being so for the wrong people who don’t appreciate you is what’s bad. Don’t try to make things better with these people because they don’t care about you and you’ll only use up your energy on nothing. Avoidance of negativity is key. Stick with your real friends is what my true friend td me. And you should too.

    My biggest act of self-respect was cutting all contact with my ex. He broke up with me and told me he would try dating me again after I healed myself more. Fast forward: we reconnected but he decided he didn't want to commit to me because he wanted to focus on his career and find himself. Travel back: turns out he actually slept with someone new 1-2 weeks after he broke up with me the first time. This felt like deep betrayal and even though there's still some love there, I don't think I could ever trust him ever again. And being in a relationship with someone you don't trust is not self-respect.

    I just wrote a long diary entry about this yesterday because I felt fake, even around my friends. I feel like most of the times I don't say or do what I really want to not be perceived as a rudeor unfriendly person. I do want everybody to like me. But I hate not feeling my authentic self. Like I have tk pretend to be someone else to be liked. Specially since I am an introvert and we are automatically seen as unfriendly and the outgoing people, talkative ones are seen as good and fun. I've always felt like there was something wrong with me for not being able to make friends easily, talk with any relatives who come at home and make them comfortable like my sister does.
    But I've had enough. I want to be myself. Speak my mind. And be ok with not being liked for doing so. I have to learn to accept myself and respect myself like you said. And be comfortable with being me. Not wanting to change myself or having to pretend in order to be liked. Fuck that shit!

    People dislike a person that respects themselves. It's because they wish they had the same strength to be who they are as you. It's more like having envy than hating you, everyone wants to be happy so we are looking at each other for answers but what we keeping forgetting is that we are all still in the same boat so we really can't go to each other for a definitive answer, nun of us are Gods. The internet & social media fooled the generations into thinking any of it actually matters, all the advice, expectations, activities you don't have to do. It didn't matter in the end and the only thing that did is what you did for yourself. It's sounds selfish but it's having respect for your own life and time on this earth, you wasn't born to satisfy everyone's expectations, be bigger than that. Your life is more important than a few likes on the internet, it's not real nun of it is. The likes, comments, drama, it's all engagement, nun of it actually reflects reality 1:1 so it doesn't matter but people try to make it as if it is. The internet will never be reality, grow up and be who you are

    I don't care who doesn't like me. I have found that those who dislike me are the ones who 1) need to be the center of attention (I refuse to play into that game) 2) are the Queen of Hearts (all ways are their ways) 3) have no self esteem, so push their insecurities onto others (others are the ones spoiling a good time or causing 'trouble' by not going along with the group or crowd). All that ties into boundaries and being true to who you are, not what others want you to be.

    This is the video I needed to listen to for so long.. I replayed it 3 times to make sure I understand. Such a well thought out video, great information with deep insight behind it. I have always been a chronic people-pleaser. People tended to disrespect me but I showered them with affection. Not myself. Because I do not love myself enough to be respected and to push away people who do not respect nor value me. You gave me great insight.. something that soothed my pain for the duration of the video.
    Can you please do a video about how to cultivate self respect within yourself?

    I’d say throughout my high school life, from y8-10 my self respect was at an all time low. Everything I did was for people around me and it can seriously turn you into a horrible person. I became two faced and my closeness with God just felt lost. Honestly in y11 I’ve lost so many people but I’m so happy. I respect myself but that always comes with a cost. It always will. It will be for something way better though and as long as you walk into collage/school/work with a good heart you are a good person. Don’t get stuck in the past

    when you make visible improvements in your life the people around you will unknowingly out themselves how they see you
    - the people (secretly) disliking you will make fun of you/try to bring you down/minimize your accomplishments
    - the people who support you will in turn support your decisions
    - the people who are indifferent will generally not even react(this one can hit the hardest because they're less obvious than the other two and can include people you care about, which means it was a onesided relationship the whole time)

    I think it’s all correct, its about being yourself and allowing yourself to embrace your true nature or who you really are or want to be, not for other people but for yourself
    And to take care of yourself, know your priorities which is you, and treat yourself as if you treat a dear friend
    As long as you remain a good person with good intentions like the video says, go for it

    This conversation is so timely and I'm happily resonating with it.
    I recently moved to an apartment and i have been settling in pretty well.
    This evening some girl approached me and without introducing herself even, she told me that she is irritated that i don't talk to her yet she is my immediate neighbor. Her breath was filled with alcohol.
    She told me that she didn't appreciate that she came knocking and i didn't get the door. I began explaining myself until I decided it was time to respect myself and set the boundaries.
    She then proceeded to touch me without my consent, yuck! She called her twin sister to say hello and they immediately offered me alcohol without asking if i drink or not.
    Girls who drink or smoke marijuana have every right to do it but it is a deal breaker to me. She is also dating an old guy and that dynamic doesn't usually sit well with me. It's screams unhealed daddy issues.
    I realized that all the young people are situated on one side and they bond over alcohol and weed. The place is always chaotic on weekends.
    Respect enables me to know that she will not dictate how i live. Those people who can be accessed by anyone get irritated when we who are inaccessible to unhealthy dynamics don't fuck with them.
    I am aware of the danger that comes with people of her kind and i don't want chaos in my life.
    Self respect is about setting boundaries and being ready for the consequences that come with it. It looks like choosing peace. Choosing one friend who is real, loving and healthy for me as opposed to 50 people who aren't good for me, with me and to me.
    I want to be very successful and that starts with me respecting myself. As a matter of fact, I want to go to uni for my undergraduate and i don't have the time or energy for alcohol, drugs and time wasters.
    My IQ is quite high and i will never shrink myself to please another person with small talk.

I dumped my time and energy into people and workplaces that doubled down on the disrespect or mirrored the disrespect back to me. 😵‍💫🤯🤯🤯 I gotta subscribe bro, thank you!!! 🙏🏽 Moving on.

    My boxing coach used to say “in a fight you gotta make him respect you“. It meant that there were consequences for your opponents actions. If your opponent punched you, you punched back. But if instead you just stood there and took the punches. He’s not gonna respect you and he can just do whatever he wants to you. Likewise in real life if you just stand there and take it, you were disrespecting yourself and there are no consequences for other peoples poor behavior. They'll learn they can treat you badly and there's no consequences.

    I’ve learned to never trust or surround myself with people who proclaim to everybody’s friend , hang out with multiple conflicting friend groups, or brag about how they get along with any and everyone. That person is definitely self sacrificing or playing a role that they aren’t to fit in all these spaces. Truth is that if you’re being yourself and standing in who you are assertively, you’ll find that you won’t fit into many friend groups or social environments, it’ll be harder to find your people

    Great content! Respecting yourself and creating healthy boundaries is necessary for majority of the time. But remember being adaptable and flexible is also necessary in life. There will be times where you have to make decisions if your wants or needs can be put aside for a greater good or something that has more impact to another person. As a good human being, it's ok to bend a little bit for loved ones when they need you the most. Although, it shouldn't come at the cost of something that has more severe impact to you.
    It's also good to take it easy on yourself sometimes :) or else you will be burnout. Everything should be done in moderation. Other than that, keep up this mentality and the discipline. Sending you good vibes
