One of the biggest crimes that we can commit against ourselves is undervaluing our own thoughts and ideas.  How many times have you had an idea and then thought, “No, that’s silly.”  In that one statement you have undervalued yourself and overvalued every negative thought you’ve ever had!  Believing in yourself and placing yourself in a position of high value in your own mind is the biggest favor you can do for yourself.  Once you start to treat yourself and your ideas as having high value, others will follow and treat you that way as well. Cheers to that!
