Good morning and welcome to the Increase Your Impact podcast. I'm Justin

Sue, episode 1,899. This episode is for those of you who are looking to

increase your value. Increasing your value by enhancing your competence and

enhancing your hard skills, your soft skills, your relationships, your

environment in order to improve your own value. I came across a quote that I

really like that I want to share with you. It says this quote, a bar of iron

cost $5. Made into horseshoes, it's worth $12. Made into needles, it is worth

$3,500. Made into springs for watches, it's worth $300,000. Your value is

determined by what you're able to make of yourself. And I really like that.

Now number one, I don't know how true all of these numbers are, but it's the

principle. Taking that bar of iron and depending on what you turn it into will

depend, will impact how valuable it is. And I think the true is for us. If you

want to increase your own value at work in your home and your relationships and

whatever you do, think about what you can do to make that happen. What can you do

to increase your value? That's the question of today. What can you do to increase

your value? It may be become stronger, faster, smarter, more resilient, more

resourceful, more critical finger, better teammate. And it may also entail you

doing less of something, less critical, less perfectionistic, less lawful,

less wasting time, less unfocused. And so that's the question today. What can you

do? Or what do you need to stop doing to be more valuable? Have a great day and

we'll do it again next time.
