I read a quote by Isaac Asimov that asks the basic question, "Are you good enough?"  His quote concludes by stating that in life people will take you at your own reckoning.  Powerful, short and to the point is the best way I can describe his words, as they illustrate that we are the only one's with the power that can change how the world sees us.  I believe that it is a common issue for people to question if they are good enough and I believe that it very related to a deeper issue (s).  If you grew up with low self esteem or other issues that may have questioned your ability to believe in yourself, it can be a long road back from that often dark journey.  It can be easier to remember in our younger years or recall when something negative was said about us that made us feel less than.  It is interesting that we tend to have less memories of those instances when people said really good things about us that made us feel that we were on top of the world and special.  Part of this can be cultural, as with some individuals speaking about or highlighting oneself may not necessarily be appropriate based on how they were brought up.  However, all children when they are small need to feel special about who they are.  It is what helps transition them into confident adults.  If you grew up with a foundation that may have been rocky at best, it can cause self doubt or a lack of confidence in later years.  The key to having a feeling of self worth, can begin with a simple and powerful statement to yourself that simply states that you are worthy and were created for a divine purpose.  One has to believe that at a minimum, you cab attract anything else that can help complete you inside.  We can attempt to fill voids inside of us with food, jewelry, clothes or any other number of material things.  Yet, in order to feel full and not empty, we must address the answer to the question about being good enough.  If your answer begins with yes, then anything after that is completely possible for your life.  If you struggle with the answer to that question, then begin addressing it and allow yourself to get the place where you can let any past ill feelings go.  Poor beginnings in life, do not necessarily mean you have to have a poor ending. Give yourself the opportunity to embrace happiness and know that you are worth this and more.
