Self-respect is a fundamental human right. It allows one to live a mentally and physically healthy life. Self-respect is compulsory, but we easily compromise on it when matters of relations arise. Self-respect is equal to self-understanding. Self-love and care are more valuable than other works. They give one confidence.
Maintenance of self-respect by setting boundaries
Self-respect is a fundamental human right, and wise people give a shut-up call to those who cross their limits. But before quitting them, you should focus on your likes and dislikes and the things on which you can not compromise. Self-respect gives you the satisfaction that you are not less than anyone. It enhances your worth.
Reasons of losing self-respect
- We give importance to those works that are not necessary.
- We should have focused on our own needs.
- We prioritize unidirectional relations, which means they demand respect and care but do not give in return.
- We waste our energy and time on toxic people.
- We did not know how to give value to our tasks.
- Understanding ourselves is a journey of enlightenment and self-awareness, leading to a more profound sense of joy. Forget behind the race of unnecessary things about the little means of pleasure.
- Easily compromise on the joy.
- We did not set boundaries or limits in relationships. Therefore, people do not think before speaking to themselves.

Clear the energy drainers
In life, we often meet different kinds of people. Most of them are close to us, but their behaviors are different from yours. The person who distracts you or confuses you is not good for your mental health. In my opinion, the people who do not add any value to your life but stop you from growing are known as energy drainers.
They should also known as mental peace snatchers. They hide when you need them and appear when you start growing in your field. When we give respect to people beyond their capacity, they show their side effects. They take you for granted. I listened to someone who said we should meet people with the same affection as they want to know more or less.
