3 Steps to Getting What You’re Worth

1. FUNCTION: Consider the value of what you create for others. An organized social calendar for your family. Peace of mind or direction for clients and coworkers. A profitable business that benefits many. A lovely home vibe. Sage advice. Punctuality. Tenderness and laughter.
2. FORM: What form of payment would you like to receive: greater revenue, public recognition, constructive feedback, a hug when you come home? Or perhaps some quiet time, a love note, or a simple but sincerely spoken ‘thank you’ would fill your boots.
3. FEEDBACK: Where do you want that reciprocity to come from? Your friends, family, boss, customers…or your self?

If you don’t take yourself for granted, life is full of rewards.
