YOU ARE WONDERFUL

When was the last time someone told you that you are wonderful? That you are appreciated and that you are doing great at this thing called life. If you are like most people walking this planet, you tend to be a tough critic giving self-assessment. You judge yourself against very high standards, and rarely stop to celebrate your successes. You measure your poor results against everyone else’s very best achievements. I’m not sure where we learnt that, maybe from our up bringing, maybe from society or maybe because we see our friends on Facebook living what looks like a perfect life.

I don’t know how we became that way, but I do know one way to counteract it—stop and measure what you have achieved and accept praise, encouragement and acknowledgement.

I received an interesting email from a blog reader recently, just thanking me for the positive words and encouragement he has been gaining from my blog.

LIFE CAN BE TOUGH SOMETIMES BUT LIFE IS ALSO WONDERFUL.

So let me take a moment and tell you … that you are wonderful, you are worthy, you are deserving and you are great. I appreciate you, I admire you and I encourage you. Now, who do you know, or it could be the next person you meet, that you can share your appreciation, your encouragement and thanks to them?

Pay it forward!
