Are You Tolerated or Treasured?

Have you ever felt like you were just ‘there’ in someone else’s life, rather than truly valued? Let’s explore how we can shift that narrative! Imagine walking into a room where everyone lights up at your presence. Sounds amazing, right? But what if I told you that many of us settle for being merely tolerated instead of celebrated? Let’s see about how we can change that!

1. Understanding the Difference

First, let’s clarify what it means to be treasured versus tolerated. Being treasured means you are valued for who you are – your uniqueness, your spirit. Tolerance, on the other hand, often stems from obligation or indifference. It’s time to recognise our worth and seek relationships where we are cherished.

2. The Impact of Being Treasured

When we feel treasured, we thrive! Our confidence skyrockets, our creativity flows, and we’re more inclined to pursue our dreams. Surrounding ourselves with those who appreciate us can transform our lives.

3. Making Values-Based Decisions

One way to attract those who treasure us is by making values-based decisions. Ask yourself: ‘What do I truly value?’ Aligning your actions with your core beliefs not only attracts like-minded individuals but also repels those who don’t resonate with your true self.

4. Setting Boundaries

It’s essential to set boundaries. If someone consistently makes you feel less than treasured, it’s okay to step back. Remember, your energy is precious—invest it wisely!

I challenge you today: Reflect on your relationships. Who makes you feel treasured? Who just tolerates you?
