How to Unlock YOUR Confidence | The Alpha M. Confidence Course
Aaron Marino of alpha m. says that dignity is being worthy of honor and respect. This word, dignity, kept gnawing at Alpha while developing the Confidence Course. He wants to discuss the concept of dignity.
Dignity is having pride and self-respect in ourselves. If you don’t respect yourself, nothing else matters and you can’t be your best. Self-respect dictates how you handle yourself in situations as well as how you handle other people interacting with you. To truly have self-respect, you also have to have self-esteem. Self-esteem is how you feel emotionally about yourself.
When Alpha looks around the Internet, social media, and TV, he’s concerned that people have forgotten what it means to have self-respect, self-esteem, and dignity. He says that people are seeking constant reassurance which ultimately doesn’t lead to you feeling better about yourself.
You need to feel like you are ‘somebody’ because you know it: You love yourself, you believe in yourself, and know you bring value. The only thing that matters is you being a good person, having good character, and having dignity!
The concept of dignity is abstract; however, all you need to feel fulfilled because the person you are … not because of the reinforcement from other people. We need to not rely on others to make ourselves feel whole or good. Our self-esteem should come from being a good person, not because of what others say. Until you have dignity, you won’t live the life you potential could.
