The Journey to DIVAdom Continues.
There are other things that a true Diva needs to do, understand and accomplish. As we work on Being True to Yourself we also need to discuss RESPECT. According to Webster’s dictionary RESPECT is esteem for or a sense of the worth or excellence of a person, a personal quality or ability, or something considered as a manifestation of a personal quality or ability.
First, you have to RESPECT yourself, you must learn to value yourself, you have to believe in you, believe you are the best that you can be and constantly push to be better, believe that you deserve the best and that you are worth it. This does not happen at once, it does not happen overnight, but you have to constantly work toward this. In respecting yourself you cannot settle for less in life.
You must RESPECT- Mind, Body and Soul.
Second, being RESPECTED by others. Gaining respect can be difficult, if people aren't used to giving it to you. The best way to earn respect is by meaning what you say. Be honest. People want to be around someone who is truthful. Don't make promises you cannot keep and don't give people false impressions. If people know they can count on what you say, they will respect you more.
Don't negatively about others. Do give your honest opinion about others if asked, but don't make a secret about it. If you don't like the way they treat someone by all means tell them. Everyone wants to be admired and respected for different things. Figure out what's important to you and make it your goal to further that ambition. Respect can be a tricky word. Sometimes people can respect you for things you don't like about yourself. The most important thing is that you have self-respect. If everyone in the world respects you, it doesn't matter at all if you don't respect yourself. Figure out your strong points and where you want to improve.
