Respect Yourself

The minute you address someone as sir or ma'am, what you're essentially doing is telling them that you are above me. Why would you want to do that to yourself when the world will most certainly do that for you as it is? So if you want to respect me, show that respect because of what i have done, nor of who i am. And the way, start with respecting yourself. If you don't do that, the plain, stark, harsh truth is that no one's going to do it for you. You are your biggest enemy, but you can be your best friend.
