You Can't Sit With Us!

How many of you are familiar with the typical "recognize what I bring to the table or you can walk ordeal/ eat alone?" The idea behind it is this concept of knowing and understanding your worth and what you have to offer as a person and being confident enough within it to know that you'll never have to chase or beg for opportunities, no matter what the oppotunity is in, whether it be in friendships, love, career opportunies or any other areas of life.

How many of you have had wrinking moments in time where you've found yourself lets say putting in application after application for the schools of your choice or for various job opportunities that have caught your eye? You work day and night to tweak your resume and as diligently as possible to think of all of the main focal points that the interviewer will inquire about you or your skills or in the case of school what sets you apart from everyone else aside from grades, reseach and high test scores. You get the interview but no call back/email to say you've been accepted or you've gotten the job! Or even better what about when comes to love and friendships how many of us can raise our hands and say that there was a point in time where you had a friend that was only your friend when it was covinient for the them to be or whenever they needed something or wanted to go out and you were the last resort? We've all been there. We've all especially have been there when it comes to relationships and in cases where you're giving your all, you're taking the initiative, you're going out of your way, and you're supportive and etc but its like running after an energetic puppy who thinks you want to play so he keeps running away from you and all you want is for him to comprehend, "Come here!" Moments of such in friendships and relationships are among other great examples of when you can get so lost in pleasing others abd wanting to keep them around that you forget what it is you have to offer and bring to the table as this beautiful human being.

It's not fair to you! Self worth comes into play when like the quote says above, when you can be confident enough in knowing what you have to offer and the asset you know you are to things to know and understand that you don't have to beg a single soul, school or even employer to sit down and join you for a meal and see that you have what it takes, to see that you are the cream of the crop and that it doesn't get any better than that! So take a moment each day and think long and hard about if whether or not you are constantly finding yourself getting up from the table trying to chase and invite others to recognize what you brought or if you are sitting and basking in what you bring and realizing that it's okay to eat alone for a little while until opportunities that are for you and people who are for you have no problem stopping by and wanting more of what you can bring! For the dreams and people that choose to walk...honey let them, matter fact hold the door open for them to make an exit at stage left! For it is better to NOT become complacent in this never ending cycle of chasing opportunities and people to sit down than to waste time sweating out your edges and being out of breath trying to chase opportunites that in reality, if they are fleeing,they are simply NOT for you!
