Just a wild guess, but maybe you are more powerful than you imagine.

Want inspiration? Picture yourself stirring millions. Yes. You have that in you. But we lose faith in ourselves. Maybe something happened when we were young that caused us to forget our true essence. Unfortunately, it happens to most of us.

And media coverage of primarily negative events doesn’t help. We can begin to equate power with abuse of power – stealing, killing, swindling. It’s a sad attempt to make ourselves bigger. Ourselves? Yes, that’s right – we all have that ability. Scary.

But we also have the potential to move in the opposite direction: to exercise power both strongly and wisely. To choose to make a real difference in people’s lives. To follow our soul’s purpose. To feel fulfilled, and make the world a better place.

The ability to trust in that vision, to follow your heart, and to take action is true power.
