VALUE: What is your value proposition?

in #time7 years ago (edited)

Too often we underestimate ourselves because we never really take time out to understand who we really are and what it is we hold inside of us.
The time piece may be expensive or cheap as the case may be, but it still always holds dearly to itself the time for what it truly is.
"There are no expensive or cheap time, time is time and it is the value you place on it that makes it valuable."

Value is defined as a degree of importance of some thing or action, with the aim of determining what actions are best to do or what way is best to live, or to describe the significance of different actions.- Source

The keynotes here in this definition are, Importance, Determination and Significance. I will be ranting about them and hope to be able to send a message across.

  • Importance.

Living life is more of understanding what your place here on earth is and how to truly and beneficially harness it for great gains. Not many of us place importance on our being and existence as a people with superior intelligence. Living life for whatever comes is not living, it is existence.
Existence is given free of charge and because we are born humans with flesh and blood, we are ultimately entitled to that. Living life on the other hand is not what was handed to us like existence was; we are meant to push the envelope to be able to get the best out of existence which is living life.
many still pay so dearly for existence when the prize they should be paying is for living.

Win in life by taking into cognizance your place of importance here on earth. You must be sure to allow the people around you understand that you play a major role in this ecosystem called earth irrespective of the state we find it right now. It is pretty much messed up, but with good people like yourself, it can only get better.

Say to yourself.

" I am important in the scope of things and will not allow anyone make me feel less of who i am. I am a game changer and a blessing to my world and my impact will be felt.


  • Determination.

The usefulness of life plays well into what we do. Nothing is got without a determined resolve by you. You must go beyond yourself to ensure that the pursuit you so set out for must be actualized.
Actualization of a set target is what lays credence to the resolve we put out to be winners.
Be determined and know that although, impossible is what the story tells from the get go, there are so many good things to achieve when you know what you want.
Showing no backing down and tiredness when it comes to making impact tells of the character of us as individuals. A people determined can move mountains.
In the Bible, it was recorded of how some persons with a firm determination strove to achieve an impossible aim and when God saw it... Gen 11:1-9.

Purpose is achievable with a determined. Without determination, nothing is won.
I am pushing for a determined people that will make waves and push the divide between the highs and the lows. The divide is presently so wide right now that there are so many falling into the gully all in the pursuit of making a living instead of creating a legacy.

Say to yourself...

"I am determined and will keep pushing to achieve the goal of becoming the best of myself. I will never take the backseats because I am a winner and my resolve is a determined one."


  • Significance.

What makes the beauty of a thing likeable? What makes us like the aspects of existence that sees us living above and over the set plains for us?
Significance means, being worthy of attention and importance. Being significant in life is importance and takes a lot of determination to follow through.
Holding down the forte means we must be willing to stay above the little worries of life by showing to everyone every time that we are a valuable people. Do not sell yourself short because you think you need some tokens.
Do you remember the story of Esau and Jacob in the bible? Gen 25:29-34.

There is so much more you can achieve if you are careful enough to wait it out despite the little tokens that are thrown at you. Hold yourself important, determined and significant. There is nothing less of what life has in stock for you. You must be ready to make the best of your time in whatever you do so that, you will become a valuable member of society.

Say to yourself..

"I am important and know that I have all it takes to be exceptional in life. I have a spirit that will never sell out to the world and no matter what ails me, I will keep moving forward."


I Feel Blessed!


In the world we live in today, there is so much we are not stepping up to.
There are articulated progresses that are designed for the human nature, and to find it and truly own it, you must factor in Importance, Determination and Significance.

Winning is not for the fainthearted or for those who run after every crumb that is thrown at them. You must be willing to say** "NO, thank you"** to certain offers.
Being different isn't that bad and learning to say NO will help you avoid some heartaches and disappointments in the future.

Remember that, not all that glitters is gold and the grass is not always greener on the other side.


Missing out the internet era is hard enough on many of us, but then we have upon us the Blockchain era which we all should do the best we can to not miss.
Become a valuable member of the team; Pick a side and tow the line, join a community and help build it to greatness. If you do not commit to something greater than you, you will be committed to working as a slave for those who do.


Make the world a better place for someone today!

"time is time and it is the value you place on it that makes it valuable.",,,,well said my friend :) upvote and resteem

Good post ... time is time no matter the value of your wristwatch ..... eye opening

Very true... A major way to be successful in life is to simply add values to the life of others... All the successful men in our society today e.g. Bill Gates added values to our lives... And that was his gateway... If you add values to lives, men will seek you.

Thanks @ejemai... This really inspired me.

There is a popular saying that when purpose is unknown, then abuse is inevitable.

Without discovering the actual lurpose of a thing, then it is impossible to know it's true value. This is same with humans, until we discover our true purposes then we cannot value ourselves rightly.

Great thoughts in the whole post. I will try to remember this one:

Without determination, nothing is won.

Sage words sir, this line really gave me the answer i was looking for.

Living life for whatever comes is not living, it is existence.

Thanks for the inspiration.
