How Much You’re Worth?

Take time to think this question…

We’re usually so wrapped up in everyday worries, responsibilities, bills, other people, we’re hardly have time to think about ourselves.  Days go so fast, even years fly by.  We usually put our dreams on the back burner, in the farthest corner, stuff them in the draw and forget about them.

“We’ll get to them when we’ll have time.” However, that time never comes…

Think again, “How much you’re worth?”  Are you worth your dreams?  Does your dream seem so far to you?  Do you feel overwhelmed, thinking how much you have to do to reach your dream?  What if, you are going to take one little step forward right now?  What that would take?  Step by step, one chance at the time.  As you usually schedule important tasks, schedule your dreams.  Skip watching TV if you have to.  You are worth everything what your heart wishes.  Do not put off your dreams any longer.

1) Identify them,

2) Take first step – even a small one,

3) Be persistent to take next steps.

You’ll be surprised how one little action will cause a ripple effect of other actions.

Most importantly, share your dreams with others.  Ignore the ones that criticize you.  Take ones in who support you.  You never know, somebody may knows somebody who knows somebody who may help you to achieve your dreams.

Take a first step now…

Making Decisions

There are many things in life that depend on our decisions.  Actually, I think, all life is made up of decisions.  The life we lead now is based on our past choices.

How do we choose?  Do we go for the best, or we settle for second best because it was cheaper, easier to get, or more practical? Or, we don’t settle at all?  Do we satisfy our heart’s desires and risk it all, or we just make decisions to get by?  What do we base our decisions on anyway?

It could be on:

1) Our past experiences;

2) How much do we think we worth;

3) How much we can get away with;

4) or the combination of above.

If we base our decisions on familiar – the past, we might be getting ourselves in the same situations over and over again and not learning anything new.

If we base our decisions on how much we are worth, it all depends.  If we value ourselves and we think we are worth the best, we risk everything to get only the best.  If we are not sure how much we are worth or when we put others first, we are more likely to settle with mediocre choices.  We can live with it because it was a bargain and our guilt level is lower.  Now, if we think we are not worth it, we will play it “safe.”  We usually leave empty-handed, and we let others to make a decision for us.  Other people go first, and we go the last, which brings to the third option.

We base our decisions on how much we think we can get away with.  This exemplifies a dependence on other person how much we can make him or her mad.  We depend on other person’s opinion.  If we can get away without telling them about the decision, we can risk it.  It depends if they will find out and how much in trouble we will get.

The best way for most of the time to make a decision is to go into unfamiliar territory.  This way we might learn something new, and less likely make the same mistakes.  Second, always go for the best.  We’ll never regret the best decisions even if we need to pay more, got to work on it harder, or it is more fancy.  If our heart is set on it, we should get it no matter what – never settle for less. Third, we should always believe in ourselves and trust our own instincts.  We all live our own lives.  We are who we are.  Everyone of us lead different lives and have our own points of view.  If something does not feel right, we should trust it.  We should not depend on others for our own life.  We are the kings and queens of our own castle – our lives.  We know the best what is good for us.

Now, if we want to change something in our future, we can always make different decisions NOW.
