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。
提高自我的价值
我花了四十六年，才了解到自己是职业生涯没有进展的元凶。我是个实业家，我热爱我的工作！但是我却不怎么认同自己的能力，换句话说，我的服务没有索取够高的费用。我工作得很辛苦，却只能勉强糊口。这造成了很糟的情况，许多人打电话找我工作，是因为他们听说我的价格很低。我工作过量，而变得讨厌工作。
几个月前，我参加一个研讨会，教我如何识别能力，并了解其代表的现金值。我开始视自己为专业人员，而不再任人利用。
虽然才过几个月，不过我开始看到我的职业生涯和人生都有了许多很棒的改变，我的顾客也变了，我开始从社区里相当优秀且重要的一些人那里接到工作，我很高兴能发现职业生s涯和人生的新关系。
