Man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much — the wheel, New York, wars and so on — whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man — for precisely the same reasons. Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
Self-worth is a core value that none of us question. We all want value, purpose, and love.
The reason we struggle with securing self-worth is two-fold: 1) We equate self-worth with feelings and emotions, which are the deepest part of the ego but only the shallows of the soul. And 2) We spend our lives devising schemes that will attend to our ego’s perceived needs, which do little or nothing for the soul, leaving us exhausted and discontent.
Today we’ll take an honest look at the goals we set in pursuit of self-worth to see how and why they may be missing the mark. We’ll also go deeper in order to realign our very definition of self-worth, which will inherently alter our way of life. Our quality of life.
