Leave the Table If Respect Is Not Being Served

<p>Wehave what, over 8 billion people on the planet, now? Yes. Well then there&rsquo;s no reason to think that one individual, job, or friendship is the end-all, be-all for us, if we&rsquo;re being disrespected.</p> <p>The world is fast-paced as well. So it&rsquo;s important for us to surround ourselves with positive people in positive environments that encourage respect and personal growth.</p> <blockquote> <p>But, true to form, some people are toxic. And, it&rsquo;s not uncommon to end up in situations where toxic behavior and disrespect are what&rsquo;s served up.</p> </blockquote> <p>Whether it&rsquo;s in personal relationships, professional settings, friendships, or even online interactions, these toxic elements can have a detrimental impact on our mental well-being and overall happiness. So, showing ourselves some self-respect is the way to go.</p> <blockquote> <p>If the respect that you bring to the table is not appreciated and is not being served back to you, then leave the table!</p> </blockquote> <p>It&rsquo;s that simple.</p> <h1>Leaving the table</h1> <p><img alt="" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:560/1*GW5k4haWWml-notceWGlRQ.jpeg" style="height:467px; width:700px" /></p> <p>Photo by&nbsp;Andrea Piacquadio&nbsp;via Pexels</p> <p>Sometimes, the only solution is to leave the table and distance ourselves from toxic people and environments.
