There are basically two types of power: the power to bring people up to your level, and the power to bring people down to your level.
a tip on building your confidence
Do not shy away from opportunities to challenge your fears; confidence comes from testing yourself against your doubts.
why precise perception matters
The more you critical of yourself you are, the more precise you need to be.
spend more time in your growth zone
Assume you choose to live quietly within your Comfort Zone. You’re likely to encounter manageable challenges, and so you’ll be able to get along just fine while achieving nothing of substantive value.
But what happens if you choose to live in your Growth Zone? You invite a tremendous amount of pressure into your existence!
How so? Growth builds its own momentum, which I guarantee is significantly more powerful & rapid than any momentum you will ever experience in your Comfort Zone. In your Growth Zone any & every action you take or avoid taking is amplified and magnified tenfold.
Sounds kinda scary, eh? Well, at times it will be!
But in the immortal words of Nietzsche: What does not kill you makes you stronger. So isn’t living in your Growth Zone a worthwhile risk when you consider the terrifying alternative of just “surviving” in your Comfort Zone?
PS. Naturally, this kind of thinking is not for everyone, but if it appeals to you, make the effort, take the risk and enjoy the ride; you won’t regret it.
“Accept the challenges, so that you may feel the exhilaration of victory.” – Voltaire
curiosity: powered by why
Your curiosity can be a tremendous asset to your personal power when you have complete clarity & confidence in why you want to know.
on being a true professional
To be “professional” is to maintain a detachment from your own emotional biases, not a detachment from your sincerity.
start living your potential
Searching for some practical avenues for achieving your Full Potential? Excellent!
How about…
Identifying your Blind Spots. Recognizing opportunities. Seeing possibilities. Reaching so far beyond your hurdles with such positive force of will that all your obstacles are overcome as a matter of course, and the entire exercise of doing so is a pleasure!
