Increasing My Value
It took 46 years for me to realize that I was holding myself back in my career. I am a businessman and I love it！ However I wasn‘t giving myself enough credit for my skills. In other words， I wasn’t charging enough for my services.
I was working too hard and barely getting by. This created a bad situation. Many people were calling me to ask for my services because they had heard about my low fees. I was overworked and began to dislike my job.
A few months ago， I took a workshop that taught me how to recognize my skills and see their dollar value.I began to see myself as a professional instead of someone to be taken advantage of.
It has been only a few months but I am beginning to see many fantastic changes in my career and life. My clientele has also changed. I am receiving jobs from some pretty amazing and important people in the community. I feel grateful that I have discovered a new relationship with my career and myself.
提高自我的價(jià)值
我花了四十六年，才了解到自己是職業(yè)生涯沒(méi)有進(jìn)展的元兇。我是個(gè)實(shí)業(yè)家，我熱愛(ài)我的工作！但是我卻不怎么認(rèn)同自己的能力，換句話說(shuō)，我的服務(wù)沒(méi)有索取夠高的費(fèi)用。我工作得很辛苦，卻只能勉強(qiáng)糊口。這造成了很糟的情況，許多人打電話找我工作，是因?yàn)樗麄兟?tīng)說(shuō)我的價(jià)格很低。我工作過(guò)量，而變得討厭工作。
幾個(gè)月前，我參加一個(gè)研討會(huì)，教我如何識(shí)別能力，并了解其代表的現(xiàn)金值。我開(kāi)始視自己為專(zhuān)業(yè)人員，而不再任人利用。
雖然才過(guò)幾個(gè)月，不過(guò)我開(kāi)始看到我的職業(yè)生涯和人生都有了許多很棒的改變，我的顧客也變了，我開(kāi)始從社區(qū)里相當(dāng)優(yōu)秀且重要的一些人那里接到工作，我很高興能發(fā)現(xiàn)職業(yè)生s涯和人生的新關(guān)系。
