If You Feel Undervalued, Maybe You're in the Wrong Place
You’re not paid what you’re worth.
You’re paid what your environment allows.
Think of it this way, a bottle of water costs:
- 50 cents at a supermarket
- $2 at a café
- $5 at the beach
- $10 at a concert
- $15 in a luxury hotel
Same water. Same bottle.
The environment is what changes the price.
If you feel undervalued - at work or in your business - it's not always about your skills. It’s about where you’re showing up.
Here's how to change that:
If you’re an employee:
- Up-skill, network, and find the right place that pays your worth.
If you own a business:
- Sell to people who value what you offer. Change your packaging, your positioning, and your price.
One of my clients doubled her revenue in a year by simply:
- Increasing her prices gradually
- Redesigning her offers to target higher-value clients
- Presenting herself with the confidence she deserved
It was uncomfortable at first. But changing her environment changed everything - her income, her confidence, and even the way she walked into a room.
You hold the keys to your value.
Stop settling for 50 cents when you’re worth $15.
