You are a unique being.
You were not made to fit into anything but that of your own creation.
Many of us have spent years looking to others for direction. You will always find someone who knows exactly what you should do, and you can choose to spend your lifetime being influenced by them.
You can take on a subscription to others’ beliefs about what you have the ability to do.
You can people please yourself into a frenzy.
You can feel unworthy because of their perceptions.
You can stay quiet to keep arguments at bay.
You can play small for fear of judgment.
You can stash away your most incredible ideas for fear of failure.
You can tell yourself you’re not smart enough to learn new things.
You can allow your past traumas to haunt you to the point of no return.
You can choose to be jealous of those living beautiful lives.
You can tell yourself you’re too old to start anything new.
You can watch your soul's desires turn to dust.
Or…
You can decide today is the day you will live in your power.
No one on this earth holds the key to your innate gifts but you. You were born different. You were not designed to look like, think like, act like, or live like anyone else. You hold a code. A blueprint for your life.
Will you be brave enough to meet your truest self?
To begin living the life you were made for.
To pursue your dreams.
To develop your skills.
To live intentionally with passion and purpose.
To truly feel alive!
So, where to start?
Here are some steps you can take today to live in your power:
TAKE RESPONSIBILITY
No one can truly “take” your personal power. At some point you gave it away. It’s okay. Most of us have on multiple occasions. Most of us have also done things we’re not proud of. We’ve made mistakes. We’ve been rude, mean, too quick to react and seriously goofed up. These are valuable lessons in life. It’s up to us to learn from our doings. You get to respond differently to future situations. You can learn to voice your truth in kinder ways. You can say no to what doesn’t spark joy and yes to all that does.
LET “IT” GO
There is likely something you’re holding that feels like a sack of rocks on your shoulders. You might be mad about where you are in life, and you may think it’s someone’s fault. Maybe it’s you that you’re angry with. Take this as an invitation to lay it down. It’s not serving your higher purpose. Do what you can to make things right. Say you’re sorry. Forgive someone, including yourself. (Hint, you don’t have to do this person to person if they are no longer in your life. A mental release can be immensely helpful energetically.)
ACKNOWLEDGE YOURSELF AS A CREATOR
Look at past accomplishments you’ve made. Perhaps you’d like to set aside some time to think about this and write them in your journal. You’ve done good & important things in your life. List everything that comes to mind. Feel the sense of pride flowing through you.
ELEVATE YOUR SELF BELIEF
As you look over your accomplishments, you’ll see what you can do when you set your mind to it. Choose something new that you would like to do. Make sure it’s meaningful enough for you that you will follow through. When you’ve done it, make it a big deal to yourself. It is vital to celebrate every win, no matter how small it may seem. The more you do, the more you’ll gain confidence and trust in your ability. This self empowerment activation may be helpful. You are programming your mind to know that you are an action taker. You will soon trust yourself to take on bigger commitments.
This is the journey of a lifetime.
We’re not here to be perfect.
We’re here to live as the fullest expression of ourselves in this wild game of life.
As we value our uniqueness and embody our personal power, we become victorious.
