words to live by, but so hard to accomplish,

You have to love yourself before someone love you. Having self-esteem help you to respect you. There are persons out there no matter how accomplish you are always will have something negative to say. While growing up my teachers at high school always stress on self esteem. If you wear a suit today, wear it for you. Do the things that you enjoy. Put yourself first because no one going to put you infront of them. Never tell yourself that I hate me because someone says 'you are ugly and I do not want you in my crew'. You do not want me it is your loss and my gain. I remember reading a article where a gentleman pass a young lady and said 'ain't I cute' the lady was offended by it. I started laughing because being offended was not even in the picture. This young man self esteem was 100%. The lady didn't have to comment negatively or positively because he know what he stands for. Never make someone spoils your day. If it is spoil let it be something you do not someone dictating for you.
