“I deserve the most beautiful things.”

“I deserve ‘7-star’ treatment.”

“I am worth it.”

How do you feel after saying these affirmations?

Do you feel anything other than hell yeah?

If not, let me be the first to tell you: being able to afford something must not define your worth or what you deserve. 

You are invaluable.

Having high self-worth and high standards will animate the rest of your life.

If you had high self-worth and high standards, you would dress better on any budget, take better care of your physical and mental health, and expect the best from yourself in every action you take.

You might even start studying how to elevate your standards and feelings of self-worth.

Why is this important for us entrepreneurs?

When you build a business, these standards are the difference between success and failure. If you have some of the highest standards, you will know how to treat every customer with the care you treat yourself, and therefore, you will win your customers’ hearts.

And the opposite is true, too. If you have low self-worth and don’t expect beautiful things for yourself, you will ship poor quality. And guess what? Customers with high self-worth will pass on your products and services.

So step one, repeat these affirmations until you believe them:

• “I deserve the most beautiful things.”

• “I deserve ‘7-star’ treatment.”

• “I am worth it.”

Step two: Learn how to make your life the most beautiful without spending money. Marie Kondo’s “The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing” is a good place to start.

Lastly, love yourself more. Spend some time being grateful for yourself. Take yourself out. Celebrate your wins. Do it all in solitude, and smile while you do it. Keep it a secret. Learn to draw power from within. Be really good at these with your self first and then it will be easy to share it with others, including your customers.
