WE SHOULD KNOW THE POTENTIAL OF OURSELVES.

The fact is that, most of us don't even know the value of ourselves.Self value is more behavioural than emotional. We will consider ourselves in such a bad way To value something goes beyond regarding it as important; you also appreciate its qualities, while investing time, energy, effort, and sacrifice in its nurturing or maintenance.So if we are not valuing ourselves, we won't be giving much importance to ourself. Any ways we all are human beings so, sometimes it may be a basic human character.When we are not giving much preference to ourselves, in fact we are losing faith in ourselves. People think that the worst feeling in this world is losing the one you value, but the truth is that the most painful thing is losing yourself for some one else. The worst part in that is we don't understand that.

A common thing which we all are doing is COMPARISON. We compare anything with everything around us. We compare ourselves with our colleagues or friends. Based upon that we value ourselves.Valuing others more than ourselves makes our self-value soar. It also carries substantial social reward. We will say that, OH, I am not as good as him.... Why do we need to do that??? Unless we are not fruits or vegetables, we don't want to compare ourselves with the good ones or bad ones.

When we are trying to prove our value to some one, we had already forgotten our self value. Don't force yourself to fit in where you don't belong. So if you feel that you are not getting enough respect or value, don't want to hold on. The best thing to do is just move on. If you are that you are holding the same situation you are actually forgetting one thing. Everyone in this world has a self respect. When you are doing this, you are changing your self. Changes are good, but if it is for someone else, it won't be as good as we think. Because if we change ourselves for some one else, we are forgetting ourselves and letting others to take advantage of that situation and it will destroy our self confidence.

The first thing we should do is to know our potential to do each and every things in life. If we don't value ourselves, we will begin to hate ourselves. we will start finding mistakes and thinks that we are bad at those things. We will compare ourselves with others. When we compare ourselves with others the love, self respect and all which we have towards ourselves will gradually decreases and this may results in depression. When we are not considering ourselves important, we will not look after our health and body. even our mind will be so much worried because of this.

Love yourselves and follow your dreams because if you want it bad enough... it will happen. It is always better to surround yourselves with people who see your value and remind you of it because your value does not decrease based on someone inability to see your worth.When we undervalue who we are, the world will undervalue what we do. So when we honour and value ourself, we are honouring god, because we are his creation, a beautiful reflection of him.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
