No one can make you feel inferior without your consent

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent

So, what does this quote mean?

Well, think of yourself as a ship sailing the vast ocean. You’re bound to hit some choppy waters, whether it’s from a tough boss, a friend who doesn’t get it, or that tiny voice in your head that keeps doubting you.


But here’s the most important thing: only you get to decide how these waves will affect your journey. Will they sink you or just cause a bit of a wobble? It’s totally up to you.

This is the heart of Roosevelt’s quote. You’re in control of your own self-esteem, not anyone else.

Yeah, some people might try to knock you down a peg or two – but that’s their problem, not yours.

However, what if you start buying into their negativity? That’s when their words gain power. It’s like they’re demons who can’t come in unless they’re invited. So why give them the invite?

Don’t get me wrong, this isn’t about ignoring all criticism. We all have things we can work on. But there’s a huge difference between constructive feedback and pure negativity. Learn to tell the two apart, and don’t give the naysayers a second of your time.

Remember, you’re a one-of-a-kind human being, with your own strengths, experiences, and quirks that make you who you are. There’s no one else like you in this world, and that’s pretty amazing!

You’re not some ‘inferior’ version of someone else. You’re the best, and only, version of yourself.

So, when someone tries to make you feel small, remember Roosevelt’s words. Stand tall, knowing their opinions don’t define you. You’re the only one who has that power.

So always be kind to yourself, value your worth, and never let anyone else have the power to make you feel inferior.
