7 Ways to Get into Your Power

These days we hear a lot about Empowerment and the need to be empowered. We are asked to be true to ourselves and be in our true power. The problem is that for most of us we have NO IDEA what it means to be connected to our power.

As a Self Empowerment Coach I hear it all the time from people searching for personal Freedom..."What is my power and how do I get into my power? "

We know we are in our power when we experience a feeling of Freedom mixed with a high serge of Enthusiasm and Passion. We feel completely energized and alive yet at the same time we experience a balanced inner calm and inner peace. Our personal power is not our aggression, it is not us defending or protecting ourselves. It is not being the convincer or the preacher. It is not a place of ego or fear..it is a place of peace and a place of empowerment driven by our higher intelligence and wisdom.

So here are 7 ways to know you are in your power...and if you are not in your power then here are 7 ways to get there...

LIVING ON PURPOSE

People who are truly empowered are connected to a higher purpose. This purpose drives their thoughts, actions, beliefs and energy. Their purpose is the emotional leverage to drive them to do what they are doing as living on purpose gives us each a sense of meaning and a feeling we are contributing to society. When we are connected to something meaningful we become focused, clear and driven. We become passionate to fulfill our purpose and express our purpose in everything we do.

We are empowered because we are in an awakened state. We are in the present moment and living in what life has to offer us right now. Living on purpose creates an empowered state within because it is the antithesis to fear. Instead of living in an unconscious state of wishing we could be someone or wishing we could do something more meaningful, we are actually being it and living it. Living on purpose also aligns us with our core values and what matters to us most. This alignment also creates enthusiasm and energy to live passionately.

SELF BELIEF

Empowerment is fueled by a sense of Self Belief and drained by a sense of self doubt. When we are connected to a higher purpose and fully believe in our selves then we feel empowered. This means we belief in our capabilities, our innate qualities and we turn all our weaknesses into strengths by taking personal responsibility to develop the part of our self which needs to grow.

Self belief is a deep inner knowing that YOU CAN DO IT because you were born to do it. People who have self belief do not have any self pity or self loathing, they are gentle on themselves and have gratitude for the authentic being they are. In self belief you do not try and be something that you are not but use what you have to make something amazing.

UNIVERSAL TRUST

Empowered people have a high level of TRUST in themselves and the universe. In fact empowered people are connected to a universal energy, which is a force greater then themselves. This allows them to embrace uncertainty, take risks and know that everything will turn out the way it is meant to.

This does not necessarily mean it works out the way you want it to be, empowerment means you know it turns out the way it is meant to be. It is a strong belief that everything is created for our greater good and for our greater growth, therefore there is no perfection because the way things are, are perfectly imperfect.

LEAP OF FAITH

Empowerment builds from FAITH and like trust Faith is a connection to a higher source whereby we know we will always be protected and we will always be ok. When we focus on faith we cannot experience fear because it is psychologically impossible to experience both. We leap into the unknown and we leap into what we are passionate about because we have faith we will be supported. Because we have Faith we also know that every challenge is being brought to us to help us grow and actualize our ideal self. Therefore we have Faith in knowing it will all work out as it must.

INSPIRED ACTION

When we act on inspired thoughts it gives us empowerment. When we do not act on inspired thoughts we get a nagging feeling inside of ourselves which blocks our creativity and focus. Therefore empowered people know that when they have a creative thought they have to do something with it. They know that is their inner intuition which is connected to a higher source guiding them to live their purpose. And action can mean anything as long as you are taking the small steps necessary to move you towards your goal.

"Sometimes the smallest step in the right direction ends up being the biggest step of your life. Tip toe if you must, but take the step."

CONSCIOUSLY COMPASSIONATE

Empowered people DO NOT TAKE ANYTHING PERSONALLY, which instantly drains energy! In an empowered state we have a deep understanding and acceptance for ourselves and others. We do not become a victim or shrink in intimidation, we ask ourselves what is motivating another person's behavior and aim to understand where they are coming from. We can only do this when we do not take anything personally, so that needs to be the main rule.

This now means if a person says something against you (or so you perceive) you have the ability to say to yourself this has nothing to do with me what is happening with them? What are they feeling? And what are they fearing? From this place of power we do not close our hearts in protection, we stay open, loving and present and empower that person to do the same.

COMMUNICATION MASTERY

In this place of personal power, because we are not taking any personally, we are able to communicate clearly, authentically, compassionately and openly. We are transparent and allow ourselves to be vulnerable and open because we know that will help people understand us. And when they understand us they can accept us and open to us. Each time we communicate on this level we give ourselves power- it charges our inner light, our inner battery and therefore leads us to be empowered.

"...and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."   Marianne Williamson
