Protect Your Peace & Demand Your Worth! Trent Shelton on Simple, Life-Changing Strategies to Take Control of Your Life!

I'm worthy because of this is how I was created to be. I'm worthy because whatever you want to put in the blank.

And they try to make me feel wrong for saying, oh, well, you don't deserve this. No, I know what I deserve. I know what I've been through. I know what I've gotten through. And I know my talent. I know my gift. So I'm going to demand my worth. And if my worth is not seeable in your eyes, then go find another person. And so that's from business. That's in relationships.

I see so many people in this world, they shrink. They shrink instead of expand. They shrink to fit in. They shrink to find a relationship. they strength to, you know, not offend. And it's like, why? Because if you don't demand your worth, the world will tell you what your worth is. And the last time I checked, that's not a good price tag. And they usually put you on wholesale.

No, I haven't always been there. I've gotten used and abused a lot. I haven't always been there. And I've realized that in lowering my worth, and I believe this, I believe settling leads to suffering. And every time I've settled in my life for something, suffering was in the near future. So if I settled... in business, by settling in my personal life, suffering was coming for me.

And so I made a commitment to myself to never settle. And even if it's hard, because sometimes loneliness or want or temptation makes us settle for less. And for myself, I realized that every time that I've accepted less in my life, it put me in a bad place. Every time I didn't stand on my worth and demand my worth, it put me in a bad place. And so I just got tired of being used.

I got tired of being empty. And sometimes you just got to get sick and tired of being sick and tired. And what the world's going to try to say to you is, oh, you're full of yourself. What the world's going to try to say to you is, who do you think you are? What the world doesn't know, everything that you've been through and survived through and got through just to get you to where you're at.

So my worth isn't just coming from La La Land. My worth is coming from everything that I put in the work and I went through in my life. And it's come from an ultimate permanent worth, how God feels about me and my belief. So I refuse to let him, them, anything tell me what I'm worth. How can you tell me that? You're not me. You don't live my life.

And when we talk like this, people kind of be like, oh, why are you talking like that? It's because if I don't value me, If I don't protect my worth, then I'm going to live a life full of settling. And I know for sure what's in the future. It's regret. I've had enough conversations with people who are older. And the number one thing they say is, grandmother told me this, Trent, know your worth.

Demand your worth. Because when you get to my age, you're going to realize that you have lowered yourself for people that ain't even here no more. And you live in regret the rest of your life. And regret is the greatest poison to the soul. So I refuse to live in regret. So if I have to miss out on a thing because... I don't fit in their scenario, I'm okay with it. It's not for me.

There's something down the line better for my life. So sometimes when you don't know your worth, you will never get to the thing that is meant for your life because you're taking every opportunity and you never actually get to the opportunity that's really meant for you. So that's helped me a lot get the right things in my life.
