Self-worth is about understanding that right now, with all the things you have yet to achieve, you are as worthy of all the love, joy, dignity, freedom, and connection as you would be had you already achieved them. You are worthy of all these things because you exist. Your self-worth is prearranged; you have no hand in it. From the day you were born until the day you die, you remain worthy. You’re worthy in every passing hour, through every mistake, in sun and in storm. Whether you accept or deny your worth is up to you.
