Of all the attitudes and qualities we need to develop in our healthy personality, none is more important than personal power or the development of self will. I cannot emphasize this point enough. Everything I have spoken of so far in this book will not work with out personal power. Personal power is the engine that drives this theory. Personal power, or will power is the first golden key.
What is personal power? Personal power or will is the guiding force of the healhtly personality. Personal power is first an attitude. We can choose to hold an attitude of weakness or of strength as we begin each day. Our power is the energy that we use to enforce our decisions.
How can you be master of yourself and your life if you do not have personal power? If you don't own your power then you end up giving it to the subconscious or to other people. We know that God has power. The fact is that you are a co creator, so you have power,too. God helps those who those that helps themselves. You can't help yourself if you don't own your power.
There is and has always been total personal power available to you. Personal power is nothing more than channeling the energy in your physical body and subconscious mind to control your life. Part of owning your power is being a spiritual warrior in your life. Never giving up and having the will to live is really possessing the will to fight.
Your power fuels your risk taking. If you don't own your power, you are going to have a hard time keeping your bubble of protection inflated. Your power is what allows your to "fake it until you make it ". When you own your personal power, you feel more centred.
NOTE: found this book to be very interesting and well worth a read even if only re-instates what you already know or have read. Found it easy reading.
