You are valuable

Largely in today’s world, people measure worth by how many things one has. But I don’t think it is fair to judge someone’s value or worth by the things they have – things which you can see. I believe value goes far beyond what we can see with our eyes. I contemplate that value is something which must be perceived. 

Take for instance, you get a piece of diamond and put it in mud, wrap it or smear it with mud until it looks like mud. Do you think its value would change because it is smeared with mud? The answer is NO. The truth of the matter is that whether the diamond is in mud or not, it is still valuable.

The value of something doesn’t change because of the environment around it. All you need to do is to get it, clean it and then you will be amazed how much value was wrapped in mud.

The reason why you need to keep getting motivation and inspiration I believe is because motivation and inspiration provokes the real you and makes you want to expose the value that you are. It acts like water which washes away the dirty and exposes the beauty to the world. To this effect, I strongly believe that you need motivation and inspiration as much as you need bathing.

You are valuable. Whether you know it yet or not, wake up to the challenge of exposing your value to the world. You are more than you think you are. Clean yourself up through motivation and inspiration. Provoke yourself to become fully you. Invest positive thinking in yourself and become you ultimately. Don’t settle for less, don’t settle for mediocrity. You are a valuable commodity which needs cleaning.

You are valuable just the way you are. Work hard and expose that value.

Keep the inspiration.
