Hello steemians.

Its been a while,

I just watched this video a while ago and feel like sharing.

According to JAY SHRTTY, a University Professor started off his class by picking out of his back pocket a 20-pound note.

And in this lecture hall of about 200 people he asked,
"How many of you would like this note?".
Naturally, all 200 hands went up.
He said, "Interesting."
He then said,
"Before I let you have it,
let me ask you this question."
He took the note and folded it in half twice,
and then he said,
"How many of you want this note?".
Still, 200 hands went up.

Now he said,
"Let me try something else."
He took the note and he crumpled it.
And he said,
"How many of you want this note now?"
Still, 200 hands went up.
Finally, he chucked the note on the floor. He screwed it with his shoe and crumpled it even more,
picked it back up,
now with dirt,
And said,
"How many of you want this note?"
All 200 hands were still up.
He said, "Today, you've learned an important lesson.
No matter how much I crumpled that note,
how much I scrunched it up,
how many times it was trodden on,
you still wanted it,

because it was still worth 20-pounds."

"In the same way that that 20-pound note held it value, so do yo.
"No matter how many times life will tread on you,
Life will crumple you,
Life will scrunch you,
and life will squeeze you,
you will always keep your value,
that spark within us all of bliss, knowledge, and eternity that exists, that spark will never be taken away.
Our value isn't created by the price of our clothes or our bank balance or the job title that we have.

We should be building life and not just building CVs.

Here is the video if you also want to watch it
