    Respect for others, but most importantly, respecting yourself! With that I think, everything else should fall into place.

    When they respect people and respect themselves the rest comes along.

    To love and respect God, then family and then self. Tobe kind but not get walked on and to always believe in yourself and your dreams.

    definitely self esteem. for some reason when i was about 18, mine was very low.(bad boyfriends to blame) now, i look back and see pictures of a georgous 110lb blue eyed blonde.didnt see it back then.and when you have self esteem, you dont put up with any crap.when you feel good about yourself, its easier to be good with other things.

    Honesty is important in both your personal and business life. People do not want to deal with someone who is dishonest.

    Wow! I'm shocked and saddened by how few Moms understand and/or value courage. If you don't have it, you're so screwed in life! Think about it. Your kid will be bullied in school, by their employer, mate...it's endless. They will get pushed around their whole life and never have the guts to stand up for themselves or others. Just sayin. :)
