No one can make us feel inferior without our consent. We’re always teaching people how we want to be treated. If you don’t like the way someone is treating you, don’t blame them change how you treat yourself. If we put ourselves down and make self-deprecating comments, it tells people we don’t value ourselves and it tells them it is OK for them to do the same. If we put everyone else first and don’t take care of ourselves, the people in our lives will demand more and more because we have taught them we have no boundaries and can’t say no. We have a choice. If we give our power away by allowing others to control our behavior, make choices for us or treat us less than we deserve, we are giving away our power. If we live our lives as victims in un-forgiveness we teach others that we are powerless and they can feel free to victimize us. If we choose to stand in our power and make conscious choices to live life on our terms, to be in control and to not tolerate being controlled, that is what they will learn.
