“I used to think I was not enough. I did not value self,” Cena shares. “So on the back of this watch it says ‘comparison is the thief of joy.’ So, I take this and every time I feel uncomfortable or have low self-worth, I just give it a little reminder and it reminds me that I am enough and I am worthy of love.”
