The magnitude of the power within you is IMMENSE! I’m sure you, just like me had NO IDEA what that even meant.
It was something I had a sense of, but I could never put my finger on it or even comprehend what that was. All I knew, was what I knew and I most certainly was not taught it anywhere.
It wasn’t until a I took a journey within to fully understand myself, which then led me to further study and training to understand the power of the mind. Then I blew my own mind…..
All of your power lies within your mind, in fact, the life outside of you is a projection of your mind, to be more specific, a projection of you current belief system. So we created our current reality in our mind first before it was project out onto the screen. Some, obviously to our taste, and some not to our taste. This is happening at an unconscious level of our mind, until we make it conscious, which is where we have our super power of choice. It is the very reason why I LOVE NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) so much, it seeks to make the unconscious conscious and is very outcome orientated.
This can either be scary or empowering, I choose empowering, because you are in charge of changing that at ANY time – this is your power.
We live by two thought systems at any given moment in time (the work of Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung), one keeps us out of our power and that is “the false self”, the other being our “true self”, keeps is in our authentic natural power.
The true self does not just know the following on an intellectual level, but it is a deep sense of self identity. The true self knows it is:

Worthy
Loveable
Deserving
Grateful
Authentic
Open to the flow of life
Comfortable with oneself
Not needing validation from the outside world
Imagine living your life with THIS knowing instead?
How different would your life be?
How would you show up on a day to day basis?
What would that look like for you?
I would even encourage you right now to take a few minutes contemplating this, because THIS is the truth of you, it is not enough to just know it, you need to fully BELIEVE it in your mind.
Herein lies the problem, most at a conscious level will say, “Of course I believe I am worthy”, but it is not the conscious mind that hold’s our belief system, it is the subconscious mind (the part of the mind that is running everything) and if it does not have that coded in a neural pathway, it is unlikely that you live in that knowing.
Examples of how the false self can show up?
Are you constantly worried about what other people think?
Do you flip between anxiety and depression?
Do you have trouble letting go of the past?
Do you take things personally and have a hard time managing your emotions
Do you self criticize?
Are you stuck in the same emotional patterns
Do you expect others to act in a certain way in order for you to feel worth?
Answering YES to any of the above will mean that you are living within the false self thought system.
Now, let’s look at the other spectrum, the more empowering thought system.
How do you know if you are in true power, your true identity?

You will be immune to criticism and open to feedback
You will have a sense of equality with others, you are not beneath nor superior to anyone
You are not afraid to speak your truth, even when it feels super uncomfortable and is not the popular narrative
You have a sense of knowing when to defer or when to assert yourself in situations
You do not need any outside validation from external circumstances
You do not have a desire for life to look a certain way in order for you to be in your truth
You have the utmost love and compassion for yourself and others, holding them in their true power
The power with you is huge, it is not something you need to fight or search for, it is within you NOW, you just don’t believe it to be true, so our role becomes removing the barriers, otherwise known as the self limiting beliefs to knowing that true self. It is yours to be reclaimed.
Are you ready to reclaim your power within?
