On this International day of the girl child,
I would like to remind girls that they are valuable. The nuggets below are a
reminder on how to find your value.
Recognize Your Value
How can you know your value if you don’t
recognize that you are valuable? That is the question. In order to feel
valuable you have to recognize who you are. As a Christian, I recognize that my
value is from God who tells me that I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I
recognise that I made in HIS image. I am assured that I am of inestimable
value. In fact if you were to price my value, I am simply priceless.
Accept
Your Value
When you recognize your value then the next
journey is full acceptance of who you are. So that includes accepting your
strengths as well as your weakness. When you accept your value you can work on
your flaws. What I have come to realize on my journey to accepting my value is
that we all have hang ups. There isn’t a person, on this earth that doesn’t feel
insecure sometimes. Even if they look like that have it all together, trust me
they struggle in some areas but they just focus on their strengths not
weaknesses.
Increase
Your Value
Once you accept your value then you can
start to increase your value. You can increase your value by dedicating your
life to doing your best and being excellent. Invest in yourself. Learn a new skill, read more and give
more. You can also increase your value
by improving on the skills that you lack. So for example you may want to be a
public speaker so you start reading around and practicing everything you can on
public speaking. Sooner or later your increased value and posture will start
attracting people your way who will offer you opportunities.
Believe
Your Value
When you have recognized your value,
accepted your value and increased your value, then you have to believe in your
value. You have to believe with all your heart and with your entire mind and
with all your soul that are indeed valuable.
The different between accepting your value
and believing your value, is that once you believe in your value, you start
walking in the power of your belief which includes taking action. You will also
present yourself like a person who is valuable by improving your posture,
mannerism and attitude.
It’s not enough to find your value and keep
it all to yourself. Once you are there, you should dedicate your life to making
others feel valuable too. That way everyone benefits.
Happy International Day of the Girl
