Value

---

As a human you have a predisposed desire to contribute. 
Contribution is a powerful motivator and critical in creating a sense of fulfillment. 
Your mind unconsciously can collapse your contribution with your sense of value and self-worth. 


When these collapse, the result or acknowledgment of contribution can begin to take over your identity. 
Your identity adds to your contribution. 
Your contribution does not affirm your identity. 


When the latter begins to occur, your sense of value becomes misplaced in external factors. 
As a leader, you play an essential role in highlighting that your team’s worth lies beyond their role or even their contribution. 
When your team is feeling ineffective, check to see if their contribution has collapsed with their sense of value. 



Three cheers for ristretto,
