It's not a surprise to me that one of my greatest life lessons has to do with internal power. I know that my purpose is to teach and guide others to be in their power. Yet I am aware that there are places in my life where I have given away my power to others.
Recently, I have become aware of one of these learning opportunities. That's the first success - being aware of what I have given away and to whom.
I am also aware of why I have given my power away. I see the roots of the tree clearly. I accepted that this is what is true right now. This is my second success - accepting what the current situation is, owning it and being responsible for it. Every situation takes my participation - I did have emotions that came up and my practice is to see that this is just a circumstance, a happening. My emotions do not need to define my next steps and it would be well if they didn't.
From a place of knowledge and awareness, I can now choose to create change from this place. This is my third success - knowing in myself that I have the power to create change in my life.
These are the steps to standing in my power. Now, I get to decide, moment to moment, what I want. These are also the steps for all humans to stand in their power.
The real question for me now is "How can I stand in my power and have more joy, peace and prosperity in my life?" I deserve all of this...and even more.
You deserve all of this too. You deserve to be at the helm of your life from a place of joy, peace and prosperity. And my purpose is to live the learning - here's me, walking the talk.
Sometimes its very hard to get to the helm of your own ship. It seems that with all the waves it's a struggle just to walk.
ReplyDeleteBut once you get there and grab ahold, its an amazing feeling.
Totally an amazing feeling...thank you for sharing Ysabel. One of my teachers told me something that has stuck with me for almost a decade: struggle is optional. May you live and shine your light like crazy for everyone's benefit.
ReplyDeleteI chose to not let others take my power away from me. I am strong, and a powerful creator. I will continue to shine my love light for all!
