Day 1261: Holding yourself to a higher standard

People won’t necessarily treat you the way you deserve to be treated and that’s okay but you have to hold yourself to a higher standard – that’s what I realized yesterday.

 

It’s 12  : 00 PM on day 1261 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to pray,  brush my teeth, feed myself All Bran Flakes for breakfast,   read Esther 5,  publish my Disability of the Day feature, practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles,  stretch my hamstrings and  promote my Eradicate AIDS campaign – 5 days and still no donations but two people did say they would donate this week  I guess I just have to be patient.

 

Yesterday I got into a heated exchange with someone and both of us said things we regretted looking back on it I am not proud of the person I turned into during that exchange so I have decided to hold myself to a higher standard and treat people better than they sometimes treat me people can call me names and say I do nothing all they like but I refuse to engage with them on that level it’s beneath me. Have you decided to hold yourself to a higher standard and treat people better than they sometimes treat you?
