Quoted by a Guy Kawasaki presentation, It's every man's favorite expression on launch day. We just launched Glacsy's new layout for it's new upcoming Spring 2007 clothing-line at Glacsy.com and it's going to kick ass. The one-man, seven-site project is near completion. Now to finish the <entire>holy crap</entire> site...
Recently, I had a nice conversation with my dad about my self-worth. Self-Worth? What does it really mean? How much am I willing to sell my soul to make a buck?
It's funny to me how people try to answer such questions. How much are you worth? It's endless of questions some may consider. It makes you tap into - well, You. Let's see a break down of self-worth. We have self-Morals, self-Respect, self-Value, self-Esteem, self-Motivation... Yes, it's endless. How much are you willing to accept, give in, or for most - give-it-up? I've learned that I'm surrounded by low self-worth that think - "It's ok, it might help me grow and be more successful". If those words ever cross my mind about something, mostly likely it's "not worth" it. From what I've learned, there's 3 main ingredients - Selfishness, Depression, and Boredom. There are many ways to gain low self-worth but these are the 3 that are the most effective I've come to figure. How will it help "me"? How much "time" do I have for "it"? What do I have to "do"? and for the real question - How low am I willing to go?
It's also funny to me that most people will take a few seconds to make a decision when something may challenge their self-worth. Some don't even think about it at all and think "I'm bored, it's just for me, and I'm not hurting anyone". Hear the little bell ringing? It's your self-worth. Your self-worth is important or you may find yourself hooking around some street corner or simply doing things you REALLY don't want to do.
Because of what I do professionally in the fashion industry, I see it in some of the photos taken that are put online. It's sad to see people who think they're not worth much but just for a photo. I hope we'll be able to change that and create company of good, worthy people.
Per my dad's advice, self-worth is important - Don't take it lightly...
Currently, I'm visiting Panama City, FL (which is where I'm blogging this from) and have reunited with my dad for the first time in 21 years. The experience is word-less with a heart-filled happiness. It's like staring into an empty coffee cup for years, then someone pours in some nice hot chocolate for you to enjoy. It's been too long and too procrastinated and finally, he's here in the next room sleeping due to all the fun we've had these past few days from fishing to C# to blowing a gasket in the engine of a nice 2000 Dodge Intrepid he just gave me :) All-in-all, it's been one hell of a great experience with him. I'll be visiting him this summer for more activities, plus, Panama City, FL is an awesome summer getaway anyway...
