There is an app. Called so worthy. I checked it out. It’s a self awareness journaling platform. It is also a resale platform for jewelry. How do I know this…I used it once to resale a ring recently. They took care of everything it was a great experience. So it has many interpretations. Does it have its own definition to you? I just by happenstance wanted to blog about that concept of worthiness. So first I pose the question to myself, or to my readers, what makes you feel worthy? Is it love, appreciation, friendship, what fills your cup?
It took me along time to figure out that my worth was not defined by others. What they thought, what they might think of me. What I was doing that might be affecting someone else. I could give two fiddlesticks these days about that. What my worth is… I alone—the deciding factor.
Now. To get to the harder things to pinpoint. There are all things we do or don’t do in life, whether it be old habits, lack of motivation, fear or anxiety about trying something new. I have an innate ability to do whatever takes the least effort. An example, I have a hubby that cooks, I have the ability to go to the grocery store, I have plenty of healthy food on hand. Yet, something takes over me, a craving or fleeting desire. I have an issue with choosing the easiest thing for me to grab and eat. The time it takes to dice, chop or prepare is daunting. As I am reigniting the nutritional focus to my daily life here and on my you tube channel, I think about self-worth and how I define that. My desire for something, is how at times, I define my worth. It’s not a confidence thing, but an intrinsic personality quirk. Or so I would like to think, anyway.
My point is, think about what defines you, what you really want to achieve, and how your worth comes into play. I am ready to overhaul a couple things in my life. Not a ton at the same time, but in small steps. One step at a time. Reflecting on this journey, I know my worth is not validation from others, not necessarily my quirks and symptoms that can at times consume. My worth is defined by my drive, and my strengths, that keep me going and give me hope that I can be my best self, so worthy of myself.
