What drives you? If you were a product on the shelf, what will drive value towards you? Why will someone want to own you?
There is more to being a man than being just you without making an effort to improve on yourself. The value proposition of a thing determines what worth will be placed on you.
Recently, it was headline news of how Justin Sun of TRON (Trx) won a bid to dine with the oracle of Omaha, Warren Buffet.

What was that worth to Sun? Well, he made a bid of $4.5million and won as the highest bidder, while Buffet is so valuable that, to have a private lunch with him costs $4.5million.
Hmmm!
Value proposition of a thing is often what the users place on it. If it is worth a dime, it will be taken for a dime and if it is worth $1million, it will take its exact sum.
Understand what drive you and how much value that is. Seeing yourself as not worth $1, is exactly how you will be priced and if you see yourself as being worth $1million, you will get your pay.
Choose to get into a space where there is nothing less than having the best around you and you will have a standpoint to become a value driven individual.
Human nature is valuable and will always be. What is missing most times is the inability of a man to flow with the tides for the right reasons.
You are your own bargainer before anyone else will come to bargain for your service or offering, if you place a number to your value, it will be what the world uses to price you.
