people with power

There are people that have power, and there are people who are put in a position of power/ claw their way towards a position of power.

The difference is huge.

People with natural power, exude confidence, compassion and are most often visionary. They lead, they continue on, even when life hands them a shit sandwich. Side note!: I love this term. I heard it on a segment of Marie Forleo's YouTube Channel. The definition of a shit sandwich, as stated on urbandictionary.com is: an unfavorable situation or dilemma. 

People who are put in a position of power, or who grasp for it, are those that lack an internal sense of power and therefore feel the need to control those around them intentionally or unintentionally. This power is controlling, domineering, and fear-based. When faced with adversity, they respond with anger and hostility.

Lately, I have been noticing people that radiate a natural sense of power. When channeled properly, life, projects, & people flourish.

I think we all have the capacity within to develop and nurture our innate, natural power, or higher selves. But the path of least resistance is often to succumb to our lower selves and a fear-based power, that thrives on, and breeds hostility, fear and resentment.


Tip of the Day: Nurture love, joy, peace, kindness, gentleness, forgiveness and patience in your life.These form the platform for developing true power.
