Viability is the name of the game right now, whether you’re an entrepreneur, small business owner, service professional, or corporate professional. Viability measures your ability to grow and survive.
There are lots of strategies I could give you to increase your viability. But today, I want to talk to you about maintaining and raising your self-respect level. Regardless of your talent, if you don’t have self-respect, you won’t reach or sustain success.
There is an old quote by Dr. Phil that has always stuck with me: “You teach others how to treat you.”
So, if you’re letting others walk all over you, willingly or not, it’s time to stop!
Here are ways that you might be giving away your self-respect:
• Not setting boundaries
• Letting others take credit for your ideas
• Not standing up for what is important to you
• Not valuing your time by allowing others to interrupt your plans
• Giving away services without charging
• Doing things out of the fear that others won’t “like” you
• Taking action that isn’t aligned with your vision
• Going along with the crowd
Today and the rest of this week, be an observer of your actions. Where do you see your self-respect slipping through the cracks? I promise you some things will be easily recognized and others will be well-hidden because you’ve been practicing self-defeating behaviors for a long time.
What actions are you ready to adopt to take your power back (even though it might feel uncomfortable)?
A great place to start is by treating others with respect. Learn how it feels to give respect to someone else.
Self-respect is an important (yet tricky) area to work on improving. It isn’t talked about much and often mistakenly confused with ego. Done right, the results will come back to you ten-fold in both confidence and success. Let me help you expedite this process.

Be Brilliant,
