Knowing your worth is a very personal thing and it really has nothing to do with anyone else. It’s your internal measure of how you value yourself REGARDLESS of what other people might think of you or say to you.

Knowing your worth is an insurance policy for your mental well-being and affects every aspect of your life.

Low confidence makes us doubt our abilities. It prevents us from setting ambitious goals and having the resolve to go after them. This all can lead to poor quality of life.

When you know your worth, you TRUST yourself and the decisions you make. You have more confidence, and you don’t question yourself, hence you can act quickly and seize opportunities as they happen.

Know your worth so that people treat you the way you deserve to be treated. This is especially important in our personal relationships but also applies to workplaces.

Stop settling.

I’m not saying it ALL starts with you because there are people out there that will never see you for who you are and will always treat you unfairly or plain wrong.

But here’s the thing… Self-worth is self-respect which leads to stronger self-esteem.

Your stronger self-respect and self-esteem will allow you to identify those who try to tear you down. You are then better equipped to deal with them, you know you don’t have to settle in this situation. That is because you know your true worth no matter what they try to make you believe. And that gives you CONFIDENCE.

This higher confidence level helps you leave a bad partner or a bad job, or any other place where you feel unappreciated… because YOU KNOW YOU CAN DO BETTER.

Have a beautiful sunday!

Screw the neighbour….not literally. Too many of us are living our neighbour’s lives vs our own. Be true to yourself. If you drop the pony show.
💥
Falling in love with life is an act of the soul, not your blue eyes, cool shirt, popeye arms, tight ass, career, car, ducks in a row.
💥
Get comfortable with being vulnerable and authentic and you will attract LOVE. Success lies in being true to YOU, wishing you all a rock star weekend my friends.

What if we could love differently.

I often get asked questions about relationships, so I thought I would spend a bit of time today to share my own perspectives that have been shaped and formed through both experience and through the teachings of gurus and sages in my journeys across India and the East.

What does it mean to truly love? Well let’s begin with what love is not.

Love is not attachment. Attachment is associating possession, self-worth and happiness with another person. This is what we have been conditioned to believe love is.

But if you look just a little bit deeper, you’ll see that at the root of the attachment is fear – fear of loss, fear of being alone, fear of abandonment.

And so what happens with attachment? If anything threatens the relationship, you will hold on even more tightly and your fear will grow. The more tightly you try to hold on, the deeper your fear will become – and ultimately the deeper your pain will be when that person is no longer there.

Attachment causes suffering.

Attachment says: “I love you, therefore you need to make me happy.”

Genuine love says: “I love you, therefore I want you to be happy. If that includes me, great. If it doesn’t include me, that is fine also - I just want your happiness.”

For most people, this is a far stretch from what they know and experience, and the implications of what this could mean is not a safe space for the ego. But have a look – how much more meaningful and profound could our relationships be if we all loved this way?

True love in its purest form is nurturing, expansive and unconditional. It needs nothing in return and requires nothing to exist.

When we enter into a relationship seeking fulfillment – even at an unconscious level – this sets us up for problems in the future. Nothing outside of yourself, including other people (and for some, especially other people), can make you whole or happy. No Cinderella and no Prince Charming will ever be the solution.

A new relationship often comes with a host of the individual’s personal projections and romanticized ideas and desires, which the new partner can and will never be able to sustain. We need to be wise enough to know the difference between the projection of our own ‘stuff’ vs. there being something wrong with the other person.

Making wrong creates stuck-ness in your world.

What if there is nothing wrong with the other person? What if you just needed to start loving differently?

The key to a fulfilling relationship is to come to the party having first fulfilled yourself. Having gone within, having fallen in love with who you are. Being whole with who you are, just as you are. The degree to which you truly love yourself, is to the degree to which you have true love to give!

Here’s to true love!

Yours in love and gratitude,

To make a difference in someone's life you don't have to be brilliant, rich, beautiful or perfect.

You just have to care ❤️

I love you, wishing all of you a beautiful day 🤗
