You Only Get What You Deserve

We only get what we deserve.

I know it may sound harsh, but in reality, isn’t it true? If we aren’t pursuing anything better, then why should we deserve any better? If you had a girlfriend who was being physically abused by her husband, wouldn’t you tell her to leave him? And what would happen if she didn’t? We may not want to say it, but deep down, we’re thinking, “If she isn’t going to leave his abusive ass, then she isn’t deserving of better.”

It is the same in everything. I am speaking to myself when I talk on this as well, but when we bitch and complain in our relationships about what we aren’t getting or about what we want or what we are deserving of, if we don’t walk away from what we have, how will we ever get what we deserve? Why do we think we deserve better, when we can’t even walk away from the b.s. we aren’t happy with?

While we say we are deserving, are we actually believing those words? Do we not have faith in ourselves to do better than what we are getting in our lives currently? Is that what ties us to bad relationships, bad marriages, jobs we hate, etc? Do we not feel that we have the qualities or the skills needed to find a better job so instead of even trying to find one, we settle with what we have and complain about it daily?

Without belief in yourself, you won’t be able to get anywhere. Once you have that belief, you will put in the effort and the energy to take the necessary steps to move forward, as small as they may be. When you have the belief that you deserve a man who loves you and who will have your back and respect you and cherish you, you will take the necessary steps to walk away from the one who doesn’t. When you want the better job with the higher salary and the lower costing benefits, you will start pursuing jobs that will give you just that instead of sitting at a desk and staring at a computer screen, feeling as if you’re not moving forward or doing anything with your life.

First and foremost, believe you are worthy of more. Love yourself more to not put up with what you don’t want. Love yourself more to not accept hurt, pain, disrespect, abuse, low pay, whatever. Love yourself more to say, “F*** this! I deserve better and I’m going to do anything in my power to get it!”

If you don’t believe you are worthy, than no one will. And you will constantly find yourself in positions of settling and being unhappy in everything you do and everyone you relate with.

Take time today to tell yourself you are worthy. You deserve better. You deserve the Best because You are the Best.
