Loading ...Mikelann Valterra, founder of the Women’s Earning Institute (I LOVE the name you chose for your organization, by the way, Mikelann), shared this anonymous quote in her newsletter recently and it just shouts to be shared with everyone:
"If you place a small value on yourself, rest assured that the world will not raise the price." (anonymous)
Mikelann followed this quote with one of her very astute observations:
"The true key to earning your worth is to believe you have worth to begin with. Not only do you have worth, you are WORTHY of good money. We all want other people to value us. But how highly do we value ourselves? Value and worth come from the inside out. When we know in our gut that we are indeed worth a lot, it is far easier to ask for good money. Don’t expect the world to pay you top dollar if you place a small value on yourself!"
Mikelann is one of my absolutely all-time favorite authorities when it comes to helping women value themselves in business. She has such a knack for eloquently and clearly articulating ideas and concepts that aren’t always the easiest things to relate.
I can’t recommend her stuff highly enough. Go to her website. Sign up for her newsletter. Subscribe to her blog. Get on board her new "Earn Your Worth" monthly program if there’s still room. Her "Rate Setting Toolkit" is also a wonderful must-have tool.
Let me...
