Lately, I have been given a host of compliments by several people. For the longest time, it has been hard to accept these compliments as it is often thought that people are just saying them to be nice to me. But eventually, I realize that they are being honest about the things that I am doing that are for the betterment of all involved and not only boosts my confidence, but also lets me know that I can use my talents in many ways.
It has always been hard for me to accept a compliment because of various factors. For the longest time, I had not felt worthy of receiving a compliment because of always seeming on edge about not doing something the right way, being in trouble or pointed out for doing something that would come back on me in a negative way.
But in the end, I am learning how to accept the compliments that are given to me because I am doing what is needed to be done and doing it quite well, even as hard as it can be to see that I can be quite an asset to those in which I am involved. Life has been quite confusing the last few years and even though I have not always been my best, I have still done my best to be the person that I need to be by being the best supporter of those that need my guidance.
It can be obvious that I have many talents to bring to the table. It is just learning how and when to voice my ideas and thoughts. Being well definitely helps in the process of working these things out and being there for those that need my support or being able to do what is needed for them. I do my best when I am well. I need to continue to see that there are benefits to being well, including helping others, which in turn provides compliments.
In a world where it can be difficult to find the good in my life, there are many people who look to me for guidance and support. And while I am not self-glorifying myself in this moment, for the longest time, it has been hard for me to realize and accept that am a true asset among many other qualities and often people give me compliments because I am genuinely doing what is just the right thing to do. It has always been what I was taught.
I am continually working on bettering myself. It has taken time and effort along with giving myself the grace that has been needed for me to get through day to day. But being able to have compliments given to me has helped provide me with the confidence that I have needed to sometimes get through life day to day.
In the end it is continuing to do what is important by offering my talents in real life and continuing to do the things that bring me the joy and happiness that I need to have to get through the challenging times in my life. I know that life is so much worth living and having compliments given to me provides such a great value to my well-being and livelihood.
