You are valuable.
by Richard Cox
Do you know how valuable you are? Can you measure it in material wealth?
In a tape series called "Lead the Field", Earl Nightingale says that the human body's energy, if converted into electrical energy, could be worth as much as $80 Billion, and could power a medium-sized city for years. Not only that, but we are the most advanced, physically manifested organism on this planet.
Our minds associate our value to our net worth, the kind of job, size of our house or the relationships we have. Our external environment demands that we be more and do more in order to have more. While this reality is true and we have the ultimate choice as to how we play our lives, there is a truth about us that hides underneath many of the facades that we adopt to become successful in our lives.
If you were to sell a piece of your body, how much would you charge? What about the end of your little finger? 1 Million, 10 million? How about a flat rate an hour?
Or are you of inestimable worth? I heard someone say the other day "My body is not for sale".
In your working life, you are required to sell your time for a certain value. Some people value themselves and their skills highly, and are confident to charge thousands an hour. Others do not value themselves enough to ask for a raise, or find a simple supportive income source, because they believe that they do not deserve it, even when they do.
Listen out for what your tell yourself about your worth, and what you believe when someone else does not value you for some reason. What happens when you become redundant, or lose your job, or business? Certainly your programmed ego will want to blame someone or something. It would have you believe that you are not valuable anymore, as it is proved by the external circumstances!
What will it take for you to realise your true value? Is your true value really dependent on what the external world thinks? Is it dependent on what you think?
The best part of being valuable is that you do not have to do or be anything to have it. You always were, and continue to be valuable, no matter what. You do not need to prove anything to yourself to have value. Doing does not give ultimate, inherent value.
Most often our programmed mind has the flow backwards. Do more, have more, then be more. We chase achievement, believing that it will bring us value. Often this leads to the hamster wheel of the rat race. While not everyone gets caught by this, the vast majority of us do. Turn it around, and see that your value comes from within you. From that value, you can create anything. There is no limitation.
What would you be, do, or have, because you know that you are valuable? If you knew that you were, and nobody could take it away, how would you live differently? Would you respond to others and life in a new way? What could you create in your business or job, because you are valuable?
Being successful is great, and even greater when we create it from a place of true personal value.
