What’s your worth?

Someone asked me on social media about how one knows their worth.

I thought I’d share my reply here on the blog too!

#1: Philosophically, you choose your value.

Epictetus said, “If you are tempted to look for outside approval, you have compromised your integrity.”

#2: Financially, you choose based on the transfer.

What do you give?

• Scarce skills?
• “Manager of one”?
• Guarantees?

What do you get?

• Money?
• Fulfilment?
• Growth?

Consider all 3 on both sides to value an exchange.

There’s no “one size fits all”, and what works for one person may not for another.

Be honest with yourself, and don’t allow insecurities to make you dishonest about how valuable you are.
