How much are you worth
A Great Mentor of mine once said, “Every Level Of Income Demands A Different You.” (Mike Litman)
This statement makes a lot of sense to me. Whether you’re an employee, manager or business owner, you control the wage that you are paid.
I heard an interesting question that was posed, in reply to a statement made from one employee. It goes somthing like this:
“I’ve been working here for quite some time and I only make this amount of money. This is all the Company pays.”
-
Question 1: ”That’s all the company pays?”
-
Question 2: “You mean, no one else in the company makes any more than you?
-
Question 3: “Neither the Vice President, the President or the Owner make more than you?
-
Response 1: ” Well, of course THEY DO.”
-
Response 2: ” They are the bosses.”
-
Response 3: “They manage the company.”
WELL !!!
Who are you?
Don’t you have the same opportunity to do the same? They know more about the inner workings of the business?
WELL !!!
What’s holding you back?
Eveybody has to start somewhere.
-
Start buiding on your strengths.
-
Go back to school and get more education if you need to.
-
Learn new skills.
-
Give a little bit more effort.
-
Volunteer for projects.
-
Do more than is expected.
Achieve your personal best.
You can do it.
Keep in mind:
Every level of income demands a different you, a better you, a more VALUABLE YOU.
How much are you worth?
WELL !!!
Really, it’s up to you now.
Become someone GREAT !!!

There was a time in the workforce in America when an employee got paid for his/her knowledge, skills, and loyalty to the company. This is not true today.
I am about to re-enter the workforce at 58 years of age.
There is not an employer out there that will pay me what I am worth; what do I do now?
