Know your Value to be a Winner.
A well known speaker started off his seminar by holding up
a $20 bill. In the room of 200, he asked. “Who would like
this $20 bill?”
a $20 bill. In the room of 200, he asked. “Who would like
this $20 bill?”
Hands started going up. He said, “I am going to give this
$20 to one of you – but first, let me do this.”
He proceeded to crumple the $20 note up. He then
asked. “Who still wants it?” Still the hands were up in the
air.
“Well,” he replied, “what if I do this?” He dropped it on
the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his
shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. “Now, who
still wants it?”
Still the hands went into the air.
“My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson.
No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it
because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth
$20. Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and
ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the
circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are
worthless; but no matter what happened or what will happen,
you will never lose your value.
Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still
priceless to those who love you. The worth of our lives
comes not in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE.
You are special – don’t ever forget it.”

You are special – don’t ever forget it.”
Have self esteem and build your self confidence. Self esteem is achieved by knowing yourself and accepting you as you are.
As a result, you would become responsible for all your actions and choices and this will make you a winner everywhere!..
