“Power’s not given to you. You have to take it.” – Beyoncé
1. Power is not earned it is given to each of us starting at day one
2. Only you can give up this power
3. Power is like joy, abundance, love it is always there unless you prevent yourself off from having it
So how do we keep, grow, live in our power?
– know you are deserving. Honey you were born this way, from the moment you were born you were deserving of everything you could ever dream of.
– extend the moments we feel powerful (do more things/ tasks that make us feel powerful) Sit in your power, punching a punching bag makes you feel strong? Make sure to carve out time to hit that bag. Some long lashes make you feel powerful, stock up at Target with your favorite lashes (Here are mine).
– do less things that make us feel less powerful
[ example ] – “watching the news makes me feel hopeless” – well turn off the tv and read a book or listen to a motivating podcast. I cut back on social media 6 months ago because I was allowing it to take power away from me, and I spent a lot of time feeling powerless because of things people said, news I was seeing, and all the trolls I would run into. By cutting back I am to spend time with people who make me feel strong, do things that make me feel strong, and feel super powerful.
If you want it you have to be it, think it, and believe it. And at the very least don’t partake (spend less time) doing things that make you think you can’t or make you believe you won’t have power/be powerful.
BONUS TIP
