Discover a More Empowered Version of You: 4. The power of change

Realise that the power to change lies solely within you

Admit it — if you had a magic wand, you would happily use it to make everything you want

go your way. Of course, we can’t give you a real magic wand. But, did you know that you have a magic wand inside you?

This power exists within everyone, and consists of some key parts:

— A clear sense of what we want

— Commitment and intention to achieve

— Accepting the responsibility over our own change

— Constant and reactive evaluation of the steps we take

As much as we need to work smart, we need to embrace the fact that there isn’t always an easy way out.

Also understand and accept that everyone around us is busy with their own lives. So, it is both unlikely and unfair to expect someone else to take a complete (100%) interest and commitment in your well-being, no matter how much they may love you or want the best for you.

So, the only person who you can completely, utterly, unreservedly count on, is you. YOU. That’s why learning to work smart, with a plan, purpose, and creativity, will help you in the long term.

It’s like being trapped in a lift by yourself, with spotty signal on your phone. Would you just wait to be rescued? Would you try to use your phone to call for help, despite the poor signal? Or would you press the emergency button?

Holding on to this magic wand of personal power and responsibility may be tiring, but then we understand that there is often a correlation between the effort you put in, and the results you get back.
