I had the opportunity of speaking to a group of business owners about POWER.
.
I started the session with asking who likes POWER? Barely any hands went up. Then I asked, who is comfortable with POWER? Less hands went up and more facial reactions displayed uncertainties.
.
The room concurred that the word POWER, like many other words that comes with leadership has been associated with much negativity.
.
I asked them to own their POWER and many were unsure how.
.
So, I shared a principle I learned from Money & You – The Point of Power is in the Present.
.
While many glance over their shoulders to blame their past for the unsavoury present and others dream of a future that has not arrived – almost everyone is paralyzed and not paying attention to the current “Being” who is standing in the moment.
.
Letting go of the past is key. Being grateful for the gift of the moment is a bigger key. Planning for the future by focusing on NOW is taking action and owning your POWER to move forward and succeed.
.
In different context the principle will show up differently. But for the moment, I invite you to list 3 things that you are grateful for that is present in your life NOW.
.
What would that be?
.
MIne are:
1. Amazingly supportive and loving family
2. A great career rooted in my love for words
3. Health that allows me to be me
.
Reflect on yours. Journal them and say thank you that you have the POWER in you and have been so blessed to OWN your present.
.
Be in your POWER.
