A person is able to survive life's worst storms, so it is important to take a stand even when faced with hostile persons. You may not be able to control all the actions of other people, but you can choose not to stand in the corner with your head down. This is your life, so you should never let others do certain things to you.
You can hardly control other people's actions, but your own your destiny is in your own hands, which means you can consciously decide whether their actions will affect your heart and mind. You can also consciously decide who it will be even tomorrow in your life and who you will be left behind today.
Respect yourself, so you should never allow yourself to others do certain things to you. Because you don't deserve it. Not even a little!
Do not allow others to involve you in unnecessary arguments.
You should not waste time on people who you have tried to explain certain things countless times, but they do not understand you. You shouldn't define your intelligence and self-worth by the number of arguments you've won, but by the number of times you've said no argument is worth your time.
Don't let others infect you with their negativity.
Positivity is a choice. Choose blue. Be wise enough to walk away from the negativity that surrounds you because it is not worth your nerves.
Don't let others bully you.
Violent behavior is a wrong attitude, because there is no freedom in this world to allow another person to attack your personality. Keep in mind that no one has the power to make you "small" unless you let them.
Don't let your friends be dishonest with you.
If they are not honest, then they are not real friends at all. You can't choose your blood relatives, but you can choose your friends. Be friends with those who deserve you. If you find out that the person is lying to you, tell them so. Some people will constantly lie to you to further their own interests. A person who lies to you is not a good person, so get away from them as soon as possible.
Don't let others take advantage of you.
Other people often don't notice the things you do for them until you stop doing them. And that's not okay. You deserve much better. You deserve people who you can laugh with, who don't take you for granted, and who will never let you down.
Don't let others stand in your way.
Don't let others convince you that change is a bad thing. What you can't change changes you. Changes happen for a reason. Deal with them. It won't always be easy, but it will pay off in the end.
