By the simple fact that you are born, you are worthy of all the good and wonderful abundance that life has to offer.
There are those who will attempt to dispute this with different religious beliefs, opinions, beliefs that they adopted from other outside sources, or by presenting examples of their current situations.
Until you believe you are worthy of receiving all the riches of life, you will continue to struggle.
Years ago, a story was told about the “sperm race”. Because of the outcome of this race, you are undoubtedly worthy of the rewards that are bestowed upon a winner.
This race took place prior to your physical birth. There were millions of sperm and one egg in this race of life. The goal of every sperm was to be the one to capture the egg. You were the sperm that won the race. You were immediately a winner at that point. You were the winner that was born.
What changed?
Some of your feelings of self-worth changed with the beliefs that you adopted since taking your first breath. These beliefs started outside yourself, and when you heard them you accepted them as your truth as well, many times without question. As you grew in age and experience, you also began to see your self-worth based on additional outside influences, others opinions and their measurements of value.
We live in a world where self-worth is many times measured with “stuff”; things outside of ourselves.
If your income, financial balance sheet, relationship, career or home doesn’t measure up the same as someone else’s, you may feel less worthy than these other people. If you can afford something by the monetary value placed on it by others, you feel worthy of having it. If you lack the funds, you feel unworthy. These feelings of unworthiness have no boundaries. You carry the same feeling to everything else in your life as well.
As long as we measure our self worthiness with stuff outside of ourselves, we will always come up short.
Self-Worthiness is an internal value.
Start now with this exercise to shift your feeling of self-worth:
Look into a mirror, into your eyes.
Say to yourself: “I am worthy of all of the good things in life”.
Some people will avoid doing this exercise, saying it’s ”stupid” or a “waste of time”. Others will attempt it, and find it difficult to look deeply into their own eyes. Others will continue to do this and connect with their deepest self and start to feel and see changes in their feelings of worthiness and the results in their life.

For many years I have worked on my self worth. I am using the self worth key every day, and not only do I see progress, but others are mentioning it also. Thank you.
