I know it's not humble to have so much pride, but do you have dignity and recognize it?
How much of yourself are you willing to 'sell' to obtain something else from others? Would you work for free? Would you let someone else take credit of your ideas? Would you tolerate him/her actions for the sake of the relationship?

am i willing to 'sell' to obtain something else from others? - it depends. if i am going to sell myself, i would not do it. if i am going to sell tangible things in exchange for something, i'll do it.
would i work for free? - it depends again. if it's for a cause, why not?
would i let anybody take credit of my ideas? - no. definitely no. though it is possible that some people have the ability to grab credit from others without shame.
would i tolerate my partner's actions for the sake of the relationship? - at some degree, yes. but it is different when i am abused. that i will not tolerate.
these questions made me think. thank you for the exercise of the mind.

for me it depends on the specificity of the question. i have been a volunteer in some activities and i didnt mind to spend money, time or effort as long as i could see the happiness from the children's eyes.
it happened that i wasnt given credit for the things i did, but i didnt mind because i know there are true people or maybe the higher being who know the real story.

I believe our worth is instill upon personal value as for me I think I am priceless.
Would I work for free, not really, although I can volunteer on my time and perhaps it would be beneficial for all parties involved. Would I let someone else take credit for my ideas. Not unless I am not aware of it being done intentional. As sometimes we are stuck and well we do not get the credit and then there is no next time for me.
Would I tolerate him/er actions for sake fo the relationship, I would have have to say it has to be a two sided street with compromises along the way.
