Anthony Trollope once said, “Never think that you’re not good enough yourself. A man should never think that. People will take you very much at your own reckoning.” You should never think that. Because you are a special human being.

“The purpose of living is growth.”

God didn’t create you by mistake. God created you for a purpose. You are here for a reason that is bigger than you. And that reason should be your mission. Do not make yourself smaller than you really are. People will treat you the way you want to be treated.

“Never think that you’re not good enough yourself.”- Anthony Trollope

You are good enough. You are smart enough. You are tall enough. You are rich enough. You are beautiful enough. You are you. You are here to follow your dreams. You are here to achieve your dreams. You are not here to compete with anybody. You are here to compete with yourself.

Whether you are rich or poor, you are good enough for yourself. Whether you are tall or short, you are good enough for yourself. Whether you are smart or not, you are good enough for yourself. Whether you have a degree or not, you are good enough for yourself. Whether you have a job or not, you are good enough for yourself. Because you are good enough for yourself. You are not doing people’s things. You are doing your own thing.

“You are here to live your life, not to prove yourself to anybody.”

As Maya Angelou once said, “You alone are enough. You have nothing to prove to anybody.” Yes, “you have nothing to prove to anybody.” You are here to live your life, not to prove yourself to anybody. Even though you want to prove yourself to someone, prove yourself to yourself. That is it!

You Are Not A Failure

You can do your best. Whatever you do, always do your best. William Walker Atkinson said, “The man who does his best is never a failure. He is always a success, and if the best should be but a poor pretty things, still the world will place the laurel wreath of victory upon his brown when he accomplishes it. The one who does his best is never a ‘quitter’, or a ‘shirker’– he stays right on his job until he has bestowed upon it the very best that there is in him to give at that particular time. Such a man can never be failure.”
