If you are lacking self respect yourself the whole society will not respect you.. well maybe unconsciously. It is because you give off the vibe that you do not respect yourself or look after yourself.
I myself do have some things to work on like quitting porn but I am probably addicted to the stimulation. I know it is bad but it is just hard to get it out of my system. I tried it years ago… Which went well for a couple of months then my urges hit me sending me to the mental hospital. I am not too sure if you are supposed to let out those urges but I will leave it to another story.
Having self respect is not about having a flashy lifestyle or buying expensive products but it is mostly about meaning. From the time you were born, what given purpose were you supposed to do to change the world? It could be anything that solves the problem of the community. Small things like selling and reselling could be one… It does not look like a skill but it helps the one person who needs the product on hand urgently instead of waiting for the product to arrive.
Another example could be offering gardening or labour services to another person which will greatly contribute to another person’s time to finish the job. So basically saving time for another person.
If you can achieve this, then you will probably have more self respect for yourself. This will not be instant but will be gradual.
