You Are Worthy
/If you know me, you know I’m a big fan of the TV show Parks and Rec. And I love when Donna and Tom declare it’s the best day of the year and launch a campaign to “Treat yo’self!” It’s fun, over the top, and decadent. Who doesn’t love that?
But there is a big difference between treating yourself and being worthy of it.
You are already worthy. You always are. Nothing you do can ever make that more or less than you are right now.
Treats are wonderful! They bring joy, surprise, and pleasure. Treats are great once in awhile. Do not confuse them with what you are worthy of all the time.
You are always worthy to receive:
Respect
Kindness
Love
Care and compassion
Your Dreams
You are inherently worthy of all this and more simply by being a human being alive on the planet.
You are kind, smart, and compassionate.
No dream, aspiration, or goal is too big (or too small). You’re worthy of it all. You’re not too old, too young, too stupid, too scared, too much, too little. You don’t have to earn your worth or prove yourself.
Exactly as you are - you are worthy.
I spent New Year’s Eve watching Lizzo’s concert on HBO. It was full of such wonderful reminders of self worth, beauty, and love. In the words of Lizzo: “In case nobody told you today, you’re special.”
Take a moment right now to feel that.
Now, what is it that you are dreaming about creating in the world? It’s time to start. Right now.
Of course there will be moments of hard work. Of course there will be stumbles and failures. But you are worthy of your best life and it’s time to take a step towards that.
I believe in you. And you are so worthy of all your dreams so why not start now?
