I had a really good conversation with someone on my Colorado trip about why I am attracting jerks, d-bags, losers.. {you get the point} And he made it clear, that since creeper, all I thought I could get were guys like that, guys at that level.. and they were jerks. I've tried to better myself a lot since him and yet I get stuck with the same kind of guys that don't treat me right.. or even good at all.
I needed to do something about this. I had been thinking.. "this is all I deserve, really" " I can't get that guy that is always good to his gf and not controlling" I was settling for these guys that just weren't right.. Now, I'm not saying that I am higher or better than anyone.. I am just saying I am worth more than that. I'm not perfect by any means.. but I am worth it.
What he said next really made sense to me..
He said I needed to raise my price.. I am worth so much but I keep short selling myself..
Say there is a million dollar house for sale but it's only going for $500,000 cause they want to sell it fast and that's all they thought they could get for it. But it's not getting any good offers, just people that want to go lower.. LOWER!!! Lower for this beautiful house that is worth a million.... So what do they do? They don't lower the price and settle for the low offer..NO They raise the price to get the good quality people, a totally different (better) demographic.
I was going for the low offers.. and settling.. all that was doing was getting my feelings hurt and not making me feel like a million dollars.
It's interesting... once I thought about this and put it into perspective I really see that I can do so much better.
Putting this into practice, this weekend I went out with someone in that "demographic" that I want..I was treated so good and I felt good about myself. I raised my price and I am not lowering it ever again!!!! I deserve this.. I deserve to be treated special and like I am worth it!
It was a great feeling too!
P.S. Not ready to actually sell just yet... just taking offers... haha!
{Unless of course, someone comes along with an offer I just can't refuse}
