Know your value. Never settle for less than you deserve, those
who love and respect you will rise to your standard. Make sure you don’t start
seeing yourself through the eyes of those who don’t value you. Know your worth
even if they don’t.
A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a £50.00
note in a room of 200 people, and asked, "Who would like this £50.00 note?"
Hands started going up all over the room.
He said, "I am going to give this £50.00 note to one of
you, but first let me do this...."
He proceeded to crumple the £50.00 note.
He then asked, "Who still wants it?"
Still, the hands went up in the air.
"Well".....he replied,
"What if I do this?".....and he dropped it on the
ground and started to trample it into the floor with his shoe.
He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. "Now who still
wants it?" he asked. Hands still shot up!
"My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson. No
matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it...because it did not
decrease in value. It was still worth £50.00."
Many times, in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground
into the dirt, by the decisions we make, and the circumstances that come our
way. We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or
what will happen, you never lose your value or your worth.
Dirty....clean.....crumpled....or finely creased..... you are
still priceless to those who love you. The worth of our lives comes not in what
we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE.
You are special....don't ever forget it.
Count your blessings, NOT your problems and always remember.
Your Best Is Yet To Come
