Are you having a feeling of guilt inside you? Do feel that you are rejected by other people? Do you think that you are not important to them? These negative feedbacks of yourself will bring you no good. In fact, it will pull you down further. Thus, eliminating the idea that you are not important in society is a must if you want to become productive.

Come to think of it, in everything you do, there is worth in it. Thus, every task and action that you accomplish is important to you and other people’s lives. The reason why we feel unimportant is because we do not recognize them as important ones. There are several ways on how you can prove to others that you are important to them.

Determine Your Role

A whole consists of parts. In order for the whole to fulfill its purpose, its parts must fulfill their specific function. Consider a car as a whole. The purpose of the car is for transportation. But in order for the car to have its purpose done, its parts (the engine, wheels, transmissions, etc) must fulfill their respective functions in relation to the car. Thus, the car will transport people if its parts are functioning.

In society, people have specific roles. They perform a task which is contributory to society as a whole. Determine your role in society. Your role will tell your importance in society. Think that, without your help, the whole complex machinery of society will refuse to work. Thus, this proves your importance to it.

Determine Your Relationship with Others

Imagine a jigsaw puzzle. In order to have a clear picture of what it is representing, you must assemble its pieces in relation to others. You may determine it by comparing the outlines of each individual piece or by the colors and drawings each piece contains. Each individual piece is important because it will help you solve the puzzle and can help you get a clear picture of what the puzzle is depicting.

Our society today is like a jigsaw puzzle. Its individual pieces (people) have significant relationships to others and to society as a whole. Determine your relationship with others as well as with the society you belong to. This will help you determine your worth in society. Come to think of this, without you and your works, your society will be incomplete.

Knowing one’s worth is very important in having a productive life, so knowing them through these ways is a must.
