A motivating story.....A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $100 note. In the room of about 180 people, he asked, ?Who would like this $100?? Hands started going up. He said, ?I am going to give this $100 to one of you but first, let me do this. He crumpled up the $100 note in his hand. He then asked, ?Who still wants it?? Still hands went up in the air. Well, he replied ?what if I do this?? And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. ?Now, who still wants it?? Still hands went up in the air. ?My friends, we have learned a very valuable lesson, no matter what I did to this money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value, and it is still worth $100.? Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless! You should know that no matter what happens, your value is intact and that makes you confident and strong. Remember, your worth is in Who You Are!
