Each of us is a brand. However, what is our Value? Is it the amount someone will pay us for our services, or our talents?
Does your salary determine how valuable you are? Could better positioning, or the promotion of your 'brand' increase your perceived value?
Are there any things we could do to enhance our own value?
Do you know any ways or means by which we could establish, or increase our personal and professional value to our families, colleagues... or even to the world?

While the latter establishes and increases its value through activities often destructive, the former creates value through the pursuit of wisdom, commitment to authenticity and participating in local community affairs.

They cost people. People have real value because of time they spend interacting with others.
The value of humans in the lives of other humans in this rigged endeavor of survival, is invaluable and not calculable by money. Money only cheapens human value. It never enriches it. Cheap labor is always more attractive over costly labor but it is always people who do what money cannot, because nothing costs money. It costs people.
And I'm not a brand. I'm not a commodity. I am a valuable resource, thus a valuable human being

Besides economical value, there's also stuff like sentimental value, enjoyment value, historical value, practical value, the value to strive for perfection, etc.

The only person that I need to worry about valuing me is me. I do not need to increase my value to anyone else.
Be true to yourself.

If someone loses a loved one, no amount of money can replace that person; even one can not get an amputated leg or a damaged eye in the market as one would get a new suit or an I-phone.
In the workplace we are usually paid for the value we bring to what we do, the skills and the expertise, and the services we offer. We are not paid as if the human being can have a price tag.
And we can offer more by acquiring knowledge(education/training), and experience; by hardwork, discipline and improved productivity.
As for our families we are not only loved because we are valuable; we are valuable because we are loved.
