Raise your standards to what you deserve.

Choosing yourself means choosing the best versions of the people around you.

The honest versions. 

The kind versions. 

The considerate versions. 

The loyal versions. 

When you choose what’s best for you, your standards rise. The people around you will either rise up to meet them, or they will prefer to find other people who have lower standards. 

They may try to fight you to keep yours low first because it would make it easier on them rather than having to look for other people to fill the role. 

Or, they may not have even realized they were doing wrong by you, they were just meeting you at the standards you had set. Either way, you will like and appreciate more everyone who you have close when you raise your standards to what you give and what you deserve.
