Know your Self-Worth

November 15, 2016

We live in an ever changing society. People are expected to be a certain way in order to “fit in”.

I have seen too many people question themselves for the wrong reason and this is why I would like to share 5 tips to knowing your self-worth and sticking to it:

  1. If you are satisfied with the person that you are and you can go to bed knowing that you are a good person, then any outside chatter or gossip about you should slide of like water. There will always be people judging us or even giving us their insight on how we should be. Nothing is wrong considering what they have to say about you, but deep down know who you are and don’t allow another person’s criticism to negatively affect your thinking.
  1. Comparing ourselves; it can become challenging especially with a massive amount of social media at our finger tips. When you see all of the postings done on a daily basis, some can be very glamorous and extravagant and we may sometimes long for a life like similar to a certain celebrity or a mutual friend. Nothing is wrong with wanting to be better or moving up in life, but when you start comparing and becoming bitter then that is the incorrect path. Instead learn to love who you are and work on being better at your own pace and allow your life to unfold as it was meant to be. Remember be happy for others I am sure you would want the same.
  1. If someone walks up to you and say you are a bad person, are you the type to run in the bathroom and cry or are you strong enough to stand there look at that person and know who you are ? No matter how hard they try to put you down, don’t allow it to get the better of you. Now considering if everyone around you is saying that you need to be a better person, then there might be something to look into. Other than that, believe in yourself.
  1. Failure is bound to happen; some take failure much stronger than others. When we set out on a venture, our goal is to conquer them. However, when it doesn’t turn out the way we wanted it to, it’s ok to sulk and let out any emotions that come with failing. But like anything else don’t sulk for too long because precious time will be going while you can gear your energy to another project that you can excel in.
  2. Don’t be pompous. Being confident is GREAT, being cocky and rude isn’t. Saying what is on your mind is good, but when you say it rudely without caring about the other person’s feelings it lacks compassion. It’s not what you say it’s how you say it.
