Hey There. You Are More Than Enough.

“I’m not enough.”

It’s a thought that sneaks in quietly, sometimes disguising itself as self-doubt, comparison, or the feeling that no matter what you do, it will never measure up. But here’s the truth: The only way to be not enough is if you weren’t here at all.

Simply being alive is a miracle. You are a miracle. The odds of existing, of your specific DNA coming together, of the right conditions making your life possible, are astronomically low. And yet, here you are! Breathing, thinking, feeling, reading this article, existing.

But let’s take it further.

What does it actually mean to be “enough”? Who decides that?

There is no universal standard for what makes a person “enough” — no agreed-upon rulebook, scorecard, or objective measure that can quantify your worth. That means nothing in existence can conclusively prove you are not enough, which means that you get to decide!

So why not choose to be enough?

Better yet, why not choose to be more than enough?

Not only are you a miracle just for existing, but by engaging with ideas like this, you’re seeking understanding, growth, and self-awareness. That’s extraordinary. That’s beyond enough.

So, I have a question: how will you celebrate the extraordinary miracle of your existence today?

Maybe start small: Place a hand over your heart, close your eyes, and say… “I am more than enough.”

At first, it might feel strange. Maybe even silly, pointless, or untrue. But if you practice it daily, if you remind yourself of your inherent worth, that thought will become your truth. And what a beautiful truth that would be.

This is one of the exercises I use with my Hexis Coaching clients, guiding them to take clear, actionable steps toward becoming their best selves.
