Do you truly recognize your value? Sometimes others recognize our value more than we do. Unfortunately, when this happens they offer us less and we accept it without thinking twice. It took me a long time to recognize my value. It never crossed my mind that I had qualities, skills, and attributes that made me unique and valuable. In fact, before recognizing my value, it never crossed my mind that I deserved the best in my personal as well as my professional life. Once I recognized my value, I began expecting more and in return, I began receiving more. People who do not recognize their value are typically unsatisfied with their lives. Some of the consequences of not recognizing your value includes but is not limited to poor treatment, lower wages, and overall mediocre living. In essence, when you do not believe that you are worth more, you are willing to accept less than you deserve.
Are you ready to begin living with purpose? Are you ready to begin living your best life? If so, what are you waiting for? You should not waste another moment wishing that you could have the relationship, financial stability, or career that you desire. Your opportunities are limitless. However, you must understand what you have to offer and believe that you deserve the best. Moreover, you must recognize your potential and no longer settle for mediocrity. Do you take advantage of your strengths and talents or are you keeping them to yourself? When you realize that you deserve more, you will begin to expect more. Knowing your value creates an opportunity for you to set high expectations. This week I challenge you to list at least three strengths that make you valuable. Keep these three items at the forefront of your mind and continually remind yourself that you will no longer accept poor or even mediocre treatment. You deserve the best and you should not expect or accept anything less than the best. Have a great week!
