Your important contribution

Treat yourself as an equal, and you will be able to contribute.

Make your life about contributing to folks rather than earning approval from them, and you will likely find that fulfillment comes way more easily and frequently.

You are inherently as worthy and whole as anyone else. Fear and its cousins like us to think we aren’t, so we stay small. However, the story of our unworthiness is one of the many falsehoods our fear feeds us.

Next time you notice the body sensations of fear keeping you from asking a question, offering something that has the possibility of being rejected, or being seen for where you are in your journey, see if you can transmute those body sensations into the courage you need to love yourself as not only equal but essential to the whole. 

Life is more fulfilling when you act as if you are worthy; it is way more fun.
