What’s got into us to lose track of time, to lose our ability to let it go and building up frustration and a pile of stress? Because we feel pushed to. Unconsciously or consciously we are under the impression that what we are doing is not sufficient or enough and it couldn’t be more wrong. Every day I am learning more about myself, to build up a relationship with others but more importantly to define what I want from these relationships.

The first principle coming immediately to my mind is respect. Because this is the core of my values for any interaction with people. We all deserve respect and this is something to be praised/ highlighted more than ever. So, what is respect nowadays?

Respect is speaking to someone and look him in the eye.
