Self Respect

Self Realization ??

Perhaps the most important thing we can undertake toward the reduction of fear is to make it easier for people to accept themselves, to like themselves.

Where did we ever get the crazy idea that in order to make children do better, first we have to make them feel worse? Think of the last time you felt humiliated or treated unfairly. Did you feel like cooperating or doing better?

To free us from the expectations of others, to give us back to ourselves--there lies the great, singular power of self-respect.
