Refined Gratitude: The Subtle Power of Acknowledgement over Modesty
There is an inherent dissonance evoked by excessive modesty.
People will gravitate towards you upon your solicitation. They will lend you their ears when you converse and extend compliments when they discern your remarkable attributes. They allocate their time and focus when they perceive inherent value in your presence.
Never manifest remorse or apologies for it. To undervalue oneself is to devalue them simultaneously; their decision to align with you, the moments they confer to you, the consideration they direct toward you…
Rather, acknowledge and shine. If there’s a compulsion to voice reflections, extend your gratitude.
The words “Thank you” bear more potency than “I'm sorry”. Respecting the reciprocal exchange of worth and acknowledging the interaction of value, recognition and mutual esteem.
