of energy trying to prove yourself . If this sounds like you , the first thing to do is to stop feeling like there is something in you that needs to be “ fixed .”
You are divinely designed to be perfect just as you are , as you are supposed to be , because you are here to fulfill a unique purpose in the world . This is true for each of us . There is no one else on the planet that is exactly like you . That alone makes you valuable . But every energy in Human Design has a high expression and a low expression so you might not be living your full potential if you are living out the low expression of your energy .
For example , people that expend a lot of energy trying to prove their worth can become frustrated , bitter , even angry . Sometimes feelings of jealousy arise or thoughts of sabotaging other people ’ s success . Thoughts like these can bring us down , make us feel like we are not good enough and we can use that energy to feel bad or beat ourselves up over what we perceive as shortcomings . Or we can use that energy in a higher expression to create possibilities that motivate us to achieve something . It all depends on how you value yourself and use your energies .
Sounds simple so it should be easy to increase your self-worth , right ? No . There is a complication we live with every day . Society places more value on some energies and less value on others .

Over time , not being free to express who you truly are can take a big toll on you and leave you questioning your self-worth .

Here are 3 Keys to help you own your worth and elevate your life , business , and career .

1 . Look inside . 2 . Don ’ t compare yourself to others . 3 . Make a list of all your accomplishments .

Often , we don ’ t see our gifts and talents as important because we use them so naturally everyday that we take them for granted . Awareness is the first step to owning your value and the best way I know of to gain that awareness is to look inside yourself through the lens of Human Design and rediscover the amazing human being you are .
As you increase your awareness of the energies that make up how you are wired to operate in the world and the gifts and talents you have that support you in fulfilling your purpose , explore how you are using your energies . Are you on expressing the highest potential of the energies , creating the highest possibilities for yourself or are you living in the low expression , hiding your gifts , limiting your potential , and decreasing your worth ?

Don ’ t Compare Yourself to Others

The pressure in our society and at work is so strong to conform , we constantly compare ourselves to others to see how we measure
