Do you take a stand for yourself?

Do you take a stand for yourself?

Taking a stand means that you don't allow anyone to sabotage you. You respect yourself as much as you respect others and consider yourself an equal being. 

There are times when we get subjected to mistreatment, misbehaviour or injustice. If we know something is wrong and let it happen without raising concerns, it keeps happening repeatedly and only worsens over time. When we stand up, we send the message across that we won't accept any wrongdoing and slowly can put an end to it.

If you are in such a situation, be calm but remain strong. Try to communicate and speak out about it. Find ways to distance yourself from such people or situations. Seek support from family, friends or people who can help you. Above all, be there for yourself.
