What did you start doing that got you more respect from people?

1. Learned how to say no. For much much too long I was really over extending myself and then bailing out of plans regularly. Now my yes’s hold more weight, not only for me, but for the people in my life. I feel much more respected now when I say ‘no’ because they know they can trust me at my word when I say ‘yes’.

2. Keeping on standing up for myself no matter to who it is.

3. I feel like at the baseline ppl should treat one another with respect period. Now if someone’s out of line with me. I call em on it. I will no be berated. 😤

4. I stopped doing drugs. I was a heavy drug user for nearly 20 years, got clean 3 years ago and whilst it was mandatory i did, it was a huge step for me in becoming a functioning member of society again.
