Respect

If someone tells you that you must respect yourself, you immediately answer that you already do. But... do you really? If to respect means to have a positive opinion of yourself, think of when you tend to belittle, scold, humiliate yourself by blaming or not trusting your capabilities. On the other hand, think of when you behave too proudly, when you are conceited or condescending....Certainly not the best ways to respect yourself either! Besides, whenever you don't keep your word, whenever you mistreat your body or your mind by feeding them unhealthy "stuff", you strongly disrespect yourself because you don't give it the care necessary to turn yourself into the excellent person that you virtually already are.
