Know Your Worth, Overcoming the Dragon Of Low Self-Esteem is a book about freedom. It is my personal testimony of how after 46 years of being a conformist, I discovered “me” and what makes “me” happy. For so many years, I battled through an “identity crisis” manufactured to please others, who sometimes were not worthy of my time! The “me” I discovered was wrapped in layers of "insecurities" piled on by failed relationships, rejections by family and friends, depression, anxiety, and unfulfilled dreams that invoked massive and destructive feelings of low self-esteem. For Ladies Only!
This book is FOR LADIES ONLY! I targeted the ladies because I believe that we have the greatest issue with low self-esteem. You see, men are competitors and are risk-takers. When things don’t work out for them, they simply brush off the dust and call a new play (football). But women, when things don’t work out for us, we become emotional and begin to question our intellect and doubt our intuition (which is usually right)! Our solutions are to either curl up with a pint of Haagen-Dazs™ and/or a box of chocolates, or we call our “girls”, who are currently or have previously experienced some emotional trauma (some which are still carrying the baggage), who somehow have become the “experts”. These “sistahs” bombard you with the “What You Should Do’s”, “What I Wouldn’t Do’s”, and “What You Don’t Have to Take’s”. Whatever the case, our self-esteem drops to an all time low and we carry the weight of the world on our shoulders. This straight shooting “girl talk” memoir encourages you to rid yourself of toxic characteristics (the weight), “going-no-where” people (the load), and insignificant issues that tear down the fiber of your life (the baggage).
Excerpt
Most of my life has been spent trying to please others. The pressure of conformity can often mislead and misguide us into taking courses of actions that were not specifically designed for our destinies. Oftentimes, we embark on journeys that are off-course, unproductive, destructive, and out of sequence with the blueprint in which God had created for us-
