was that when we’re too busy trying to prove our significance to the world, we do so at the cost of meaningful connection, acceptance, and a sense of belonging because we live our lives chasing external approval, titles, and status rather than focussing on sharing our authentic selves with others. We can claim to be significant, but unless we’re giving people the value we have to offer, they won’t see us as significant. True significance is earned when you give others your most valuable commodity: time.
