Stop Putting A Low Value On Yourself

Stop putting a low value on yourself. You are better than that. You are good enough for yourself. Don’t strive to be perfect, strive to be you. Because if you are not you, you can’t give your best. And if you can’t give your best, you can’t live your best life. And if you can’t live your best life, then you must do something to change it. You can always live the best life that God has in store for you. But you can’t live your best life, you can’t give your best, you can’t lift other people up, if you are not yourself. To you, you are you. But to the world, you are something else. Don’t worry about other people’s opinions, worry about not putting a low value on yourself, on your work. Don’t let fear put you down. No matter what you are going through in your life, always focus on the lesson. Don’t miss the lesson. Your job is to focus on the lesson, not on why something happened. Remember that to get the best, you must explore your fears. You must face your fears. You must do what scares you. You must stand up for yourself. You must stand for something. If not, people will put a low value on you.
