Ultimate Happiness Comes When You Know Your Self Worth

Ultimate Happiness Comes When You Know Your Self Worth
By Rita Johnson

Self-worth is important to the ultimate happiness you feel in your life because it is closely connected to your self-esteem.

If you suffer with low self esteem and low self worth you could find yourself in some very difficult situations.

Why do you think people with a low self worth end up attracting the wrong people in their life?

For instance are you or anyone you know in a relationship that is obviously not right?

How many times do you hear people asking, the question, why do women stay in abusive relationships.

This is not an easy question to answer.

There can be many reasons.

If you were to ask the person involved why, they probably could not give you a satisfactory answer.

The usual reply is because of the kids, or I know deep down he loves me.

For those on the outside it is hard to understand.

Most women are so good at hiding the fact that they have low self worth, that they even convince themselves that they are in control.

Nothing could be further than the truth

Woman in particular can settle for so much less than they deserve because their partner has over a period of time deluded them into thinking this is as good as it gets.

Have you ever met someone who in your estimation has it all, great figure beauty, bubbly confident personality?

Only to find them a few months later an emotional wreck, making up excuses for not getting in touch on your girlie nights out.

Always making excuses for their partners inappropriate behaviour or bad attitude.

These are classic symptoms of a woman who has lost her self worth.

When you know your self worth and do not compromise your individuality you will command respect for yourself, your family and friends.

You will have outside interests; pursue your own personal goals.

You will compliment your partnership not depend on it for validation.

Try to remember what it was like when it was just you.

What did you dream about, what was your profession going to be.

Did you enjoy going out with your friends and having a laugh?

Women do not have to give up their identity to be in a relationship and we can all fall foul to this, without even knowing it.

Time slips by and it's easier to go along with it for peace sake.

However, you can and should strive to be all that you can be.

It is healthy to evaluate your self worth and your relationships to see if you are compromising too much. giving and not receiving anything back.

Ask yourself does my partner support my individuality and dreams or does he find ways to sabotage them.

Everyone was born with gifts talents and abilities; you owe it to yourself and to all around you including your partner to shine.

There is not another you on the planet contrary to what you may or may not have been told.

So the million-dollar question is how much do you think you are worth?
