How to Find Your Intrinsic Value

Understanding your value and how to make the most of it is significant when cultivating relationships. You’re most likely worth a lot more than you realize! And it’s a good idea to ascertain how beneficial you really can be to your spheres of influence—because what you can give of yourself to others is truly valued.

Discover Your Worth

Consider all the factors in your life that have molded you into the person you are today: your family, your jobs, skills and experiences, interests and hobbies, and your overall well-being have all been influential in shaping who you are as an individual. And all of this impacts the value you can potentially provide those in your networks.

Think of it this way:

-Are you an expert at giving speeches? You can offer tips to an introverted colleague who has been asked to speak at the next company meeting.

-Are you an accomplished entrepreneur? The advice you can impart on how you gained success is vital to a new small business owner.

-Are you a super-connector? Facilitating an introduction between two people who can benefit from meeting each other can bring relationships to a new level.

-Do you have an outstanding social media following? When a connection writes a blog post share it through your channels and promote them to your large audience.

Any situation where you can make an impact is an advantage and aids in providing worth to others. What’s easy for you could be someone else’s biggest challenge or fear. Let yourself be an asset—and help people gain from what you know!

There’s a saying that goes: “Helping one person might not change the whole world, but it could change the world for one person.” This is something we can all live by. You may not realize even your smallest actions matter, but they are in fact, very valuable. And many times can make all the difference in someone’s life.

Utilize Your Value

Realizing your strengths and ways you can benefit others is essential in building meaningful relationships. The way you interact and collaborate establishes your worth. When you network successfully, you foster valuable connections.

You should start by cultivating the right mindset to realize just how YOU can make a difference. As said by tennis legend Arthur Ashe: “Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.” And when you determine how significant your intrinsic value and inherent skills are it can be advantageous to your networks.

You’ve probably heard about the importance of demonstrating your value during a job search. Employers want to know not only what you can deliver, but how you can do it, and just how valuable that can be to their company. You must showcase this on your resume and in a job interview, and for you to do so effectively it’s a good idea to first determine what it is exactly that you can potentially offer.

You may lack the confidence in thinking what you bring to the table is held in high regard by others. However, if you break it down and look closer, you will discover just how worthy you really are. I encourage you to learn more about assessing your own value!
