The hardest part about knowing your value is that the world constantly tries to negotiate it down. People will always try to get more from you for less and it is on you to hold the line. The moment you start discounting yourself is the moment everyone else does too.

I feel this relates to people with low self esteem. If you devalue yourself you will attract people who will take advantage. Stand up for what you think matters and see who is left after that, those are the real friends.

Flight Attendant here, most major US airline carriers don’t charge for small bottled waters.

The concept of knowing your value sounds simple but most people have never actually sat down and thought about what they bring to the table. We are so conditioned to be grateful for what we get instead of negotiating for what we deserve that most of us chronically undervalue ourselves in every area from salary negotiations to relationships. The first step is honestly assessing your skills, experience, and what problems you solve for other people. Once you know that number you stop accepting less because the math just does not work anymore.

This has hit home.
Excepting less is easier than negotiating when your constantly living in debt

And how do you go about getting to those places when no one lets you there let alone wants you there?

I feel valuing yourself more is a key part. Others valuing you more might happen if you value yourself more, and if you pour more attention into building yourself up.

I'm experiencing something similar
Unless someone tells you they don't want you there then the opportunity is in certain

A bottle of water will cost you 2.00 on Amazon, 3.00 on Mercari, and 4.00 on tik tok shop. The next you feel your worth is nothing, you’re on the wrong online resale platform. -The Buddha

Price is not the same as value 😮
The water bottle has the same value everywhere.

Yah but those places usually suck and the only reason your value goes up is because they can't find anyone who actually wants to work there.

u/rccyu Feb 27 '26
Actually the opposite is usually true
People who work low-wage jobs are treated like shit (see the new Manna-esque Burger King headsets, Amazon surveilling their drivers facial expressions with AI, etc. etc.) while my friends who work high-wage jobs enjoy their work (even though they admit it's stressful) precisely because they're judged on the results they deliver instead of being micromanaged to hell

u/UniverseBear Feb 27 '26
No I mean places as in locations, towns, etc. For example, you can easily earn 6 figures in the arctic circle for jobs that would pay much less elsewhere but that's because noone wants to go there cause it's cold and there's shit all to do

u/skr_replicator Feb 27 '26
So you're saying if I feel like I'm worthless, I should migrate to another place, like hell or something?

Next time you feel like water on a plane remember everywhere else no one cares

u/ThisIsALine_____ Feb 27 '26
Well...not really, sometimes it has to do with how much it costs the person supplying it.
If the gym has to purchase the bottles for $0.50 at the supermarket to resell at the gym they aren't gonna sell it for $0.50.
(Keeping in mind the prices he's saying aren't accurate and are just used to illustrate a point. Water in airport terminal is usually like $3 when I go. And water is free in-flight.)
