The desire to feel appreciated is natural. But in the quest to garner recognition from others we can develop an overly outward-looking approach to life and forget this important truth: How we feel about our own efforts has little to do with other people and everything to do with how we feel about ourselves. No matter what we accomplish, if we don’t recognize our inherent value, we’ll never feel we’ve good enough. When we acknowledge that we’re worthy just as we are, an interesting thing happens. Our confident radiance makes others naturally…

Acknowledge us, too.
