How Much Do You Worth?

Everyone comes with an invisible price tag. We send out messages of how much we worth through our thought and behaviour. During any job interview, the interviewer can easily detect the interviewee's price tag by observing the latter's response to all the questions put up to him/her. If he/she tries very hard to impress, his/her value will be perceived as low. If he/she is very firm and frank without being pretentious, the perceived value will be much higher.
To know our value is the very first step to improve ourselves. We should know where we are so that we can assess our performance from time to time. When we find ourselves stay still at a particular position for too long, it might be indication that we are decaying in our comfort zone. We dare not make any drastic changes in order to protect this comfort zone in its original state. But we will never know what lies outside this self-imposed boundary unless we step away from it. It involves risks for sure; but it may also open up windows of opportunities that we have never dreamt of.
Before closing any deal, just think about it; how much do you worth?
