The journey of empowerment isn’t like riding a bike. It is not a one-time acquisition, instead it unfolds as a dynamic process of transformation and transmutation within one’s life. Webster’s dictionary says it is “the power, right, or authority to do something”. Let’s take a look at what it is:
It is a force that transcends mere self-confidence or assertiveness.
It goes beyond external achievements.
It is internal. You no longer have the need for someone else’s opinion to make decisions.
You take ownership of your choices and actions, recognizing that they will influence and shape your life.
You maintain optimism in the face of difficulties because you have eliminated limiting beliefs.
You can speak your truth or speak up without fear.
You establish healthy boundaries.
You have a desire for lifelong learning and personal development.
It allows you to have more resilience and the ability to bounce back from setbacks and adversity.
You view obstacles as an opportunity for growth.
You have increased confidence and independence.
You have greater overall satisfaction with life.
You have a greater sense of purpose.
On a larger scale, if more people were empowered, it would be easier for cultural and societal change.
It is having power and control over your own life.
It is a requirement on the path to Joy.
The one word that encompasses Empowerment is “Autonomy”.
So how does one become empowered? It’s a journey of self-discovery, mind-set shifts, healing of old ways of being, thinking, and doing. It requires self-awareness, setting goals, a positive mindset, taking ownership of life decisions, setting boundaries, an open mind, and a choice to continuously learn. For an expedited and steady path to empowerment, consider beginning with a class called Empower Thyself. This class, owing to its lineage, can accelerate your journey towards empowerment, facilitating a more rapid and steady progress.
