Never lose your worth A beautiful afternoon from here, depending on the time zone of where you are, have it in mind that I am sending my greeting to you and your family. The title of my article says it all but it won't be something bad if I try to shed more light on it, shall I begin? I was viewing statuses on WhatsApp when I was less busy yesterday evening, that was when I came across a video on a friend status, I am sure many of us would have seen the video too. In the video was a lecturer standing right in front of his student holding a very fine $20 worth of money. He asked his student who want to have it and they all said they all want to have it, so he squeezed the money after that and still asked the same question "who want the money", they all said they want it. He took the money again and squeezed it very well then stepped on it after that, he asked the same question and the same answer was given. He then stepped on it very hard and make sure the money was very rough to the sight and asked the same question, the same answer was given. It was after then he says " despite how dirty and rough the $20 was, everyone still wants to have it because all these aforementioned qualities didn't allow it to lose its value, that means in everything you do, never lose your worth. It was a great lesson that I have to ponder over because I know many people are guilty of this. I think I am also guilty of this but I have learnt my lesson. Let me give an instance for us to understand what I am saying; ***In a case where a guy likes a lady and the lady didn't like the guy but the guy insists on forcing the girl to like her and when the lady finally accepts, she starts to make use of the guy. She will send her errand that shouldn't be heard outside and the guys will go with the mindset that she loves her and doing it for love but in the real sense, he is losing his worth cos the lady do embarrass him outside and he won't say anything. This is a typical example of losing ones worth.*** ***Another case is a graduate who just finished school with first-class was offered a job with a small salary, he refused and told them his certificate is worth more than that and before you know it, he was given the salary he deserved. The fact that he refused doesn't mean he is proud but because he knows his worth and knows what he deserved.*** To everyone out there, don't let any guy or any lady or anyone treat you the way you didn't deserve, don't let them treat you like you are not human, know your worth. Don't accept things that aren't acceptable, things that are worth your standard shouldn't be allowed to talk to you anyhow, give the same energy that you are given, there is no harm in doing that. Most importantly, don't be involved in things that will allow an insult to your name or your esteem, avoid unnecessary things that are not adding anything to you cos by that, your worth wouldn't tamper with. I know we all must have different instances by now cos I am sure you all understood what I have written so far, I will be waiting for your examples in the comment section and I will be happy to reply to you all. Thanks for reading and I really appreciate your time in reading. God bless you all 🥰🥰🥰.

I watched that video sometimes back. Great lessons from the video and of course, this piece of yours.
I was sure the video was a popular one, thanks for the compliment boss
Deep insightful message, it's what I do Everytime. Once I see that a person is trying to make it seem like I'm pleading for friendship, I just lock up, no stress... But then... The person takes this attitude of mine as pride.
I swear, that's the best option. Just lock up, don't bother about what they say behind you
Not everything in the world has a price, your worth should never be traded for any reason no matter what life brings our way.
No matter the circumstances, it should never be traded.
You may not have a price but remember you worth more than a price
Hmm, deep.
I watched the video and it teaches a lot of lessons about self worth; that one should make use of.
Ohh, you saw the video too, that's nice. A lot of lessons learned from it too
Once we learn to understand our worth in life then nothing will ever stain our name
Once we learn to avoid losing our self-worth then our name will always be respected
Our name will forever be respected when we know our value and also respect others
When we know what we deserve then we don't chase nor beg for something that isn't worth it
You are right on this, we will never go about begging when we know what we worth.
I use to refer self worth to values because it adds to who we are and it is not okay if we lose it.
It's the same thing and we should never lose it
No matter what happens we must never lose our worth for anything
