"一个不重视自己的人无法重视任何事情或任何人"

Someone who doesn't see their own worth will struggle to see the worth in anything or anyone else. It's a concept that boils down to self-perception. If you think you're not valuable, it colors the way you look at the world. Everything appears a little duller, and other people seem a bit less important.

Now, let's rewind a bit to understand why this idea might've come up. Historically speaking, this could be tied to ancient philosophies. Take Socrates' famous saying, "Know thyself." If you don't understand or value yourself, how can you truly appreciate the world around you? It’s not just about ego. It’s about recognizing your own strengths and weaknesses, and from there, seeing the same in others.

Imagine this: there's a guy named Jake. Jake works a 9 to 5 job that he hates. He feels stuck, undervalued, and it eats at his self-worth. When he gets home, he's irritable. His partner's achievements start to feel like salt in the wound. "Why can't I be as successful?" he thinks. Slowly, he starts devaluing their relationship, and eventually, nothing seems worth the effort. It’s not that his partner's less amazing than before. It's just that Jake can't appreciate it because he doesn’t see his own value.

You might wonder how to turn this around. It starts with small steps. Think about something you genuinely enjoy or are good at. Focus on that. Maybe you’re great at baking cookies. So, bake more cookies. Share them with friends. Notice how something you created brings joy to others. That’s a piece of your value right there.

Another tip? Surround yourself with people who see your worth. It’s easy to spiral when everyone around you's negative. But positive people? They highlight the good in you. And once you start recognizing your own worth, you’ll see the same in others.

Let’s consider a relatable scenario. Picture Sara. She’s always felt a bit out of place. Maybe it’s because of a tough high school experience where she was bullied. Fast forward to her adult life – she's always doubting herself, feeling less than. At work, she doesn't put herself out there, even though she's got some great ideas. One day, a friend drags her to a pottery class. It’s a small thing, but Sara finds that she loves it. She’s good at it, too. Her confidence starts to grow as she sees her creations. Slowly, she begins to see her own value. And guess what? That self-awareness makes her kinder and more appreciative of others’ talents and feelings.

So, if you ever feel that you’re undervaluing yourself, remember: start small. Find that one thing you’re good at. Surround yourself with people who lift you up. It’s not about being the best at everything, but about seeing that you have something unique to offer. And with that, the world around you starts to shine a bit brighter too.
