My husband sent me this article as I struggle with worthiness in my career (a short one so far, but a career nonetheless). I don't understand a lot of things in this world, but this is one thing that is clear to me:
"My search for the deepest sources of value is not over, because the journey is lifelong. But one simple principle does seem increasingly evident. We derive the greatest value not by seeking to build a better case for ourselves. Instead, we do so by understanding better what we value most — meaning, what we stand for most deeply and who we really want to be. Then we use that conviction and those skills in the service of others.
We feel best about ourselves when we stop focusing obsessively on filling our own sense of deficit. Making others feel more valued makes us feel more valuable." - Tony Schwartz
