You may feel accepted and valued by your loved ones today. You might be receiving praise or acknowledgment about your contributions, or compliments about your talents and abilities. While this validation from important people in your life is enjoyable, you may also want to be sure that your own self-worth is a strong and stable foundation upon which you base your confidence today. By first turning your attention within and affirming that you are worthy and valuable regardless of anything you do, you will develop an unshakable belief in yourself and your abilities. The validation you receive from others will then be a pleasant complement to your own strong sense of self-worth.

By fostering a strong belief in our value as human beings, we develop an unshakable sense of self-worth and confidence, regardless of the praise or criticism we receive from others. We often tend to base our perception of worthiness on the feedback we receive from others, believing ourselves to be valuable if others express acceptance of us. While we all want to be liked and admired by others, we can develop a stronger belief in ourselves by fostering our own sense of self-worth from within. The more we believe in ourselves and our own worth, the more valuable and confident we feel. We are then able to honor ourselves for who we are, rather than looking to others to do it for us. Developing a strong sense of self-worth from within can provide a powerful sense of self-acceptance that fills you with confidence and joy today.
