“Value yourself.  The only people who appreciate a doormat are people with dirty shoes.” –Leo Buscaglia

Feeling like the human doormat?  As long as you’re lying down, you’ll get stepped on. 

While it’s important to play well with others, there are times when you need to draw a line in the sandbox.  Bullies come in all shapes, sizes, and ages, too.  They’re not happy until they push you in the mud and take your toys—right along with your pride. 

Playing it safe might mean playing by someone else’s rules—ones that aren’t necessarily right for you.  Love yourself enough to speak up.  Respect yourself enough to reclaim your power. Silence may be golden, but what good is a voice if you are afraid to use it?  No one can take your dignity unless you surrender it.

It’s time to level the playing field and you can’t do that from ground level.  Get up. Capture the flag instead of waving the white one. 

More power to you!
