AS A POWERFUL PERSON I…
(Although this is a statement of what I see for myself in being a powerful person, I’ve set this up so the reader can “checkmark” the box where you see it as something you can commit to and agree with; add the items you see should be added. The items you can’t fully claim or agree with should be items you seek coaching on. To study an area of weakness, enter the subject into the search engine on the major pages. Keep this list in your “About Me” notebook.)
___ Have confidence that I have power, the ability to create and cause.
___ Acknowledge that I can act and create more than enough to survive and
be happy.
___ I also do not give over my power to others in terms of having “they”
determine what is enough.
___ What is enough is a myth and indeterminable in a sense.
___ No longer try to fix things or prove I am enough.
___ Realize that I can choose any possibility of being and generate from that way
of being anything I want in the world.
___ Realize that power is simply the ability to be “at cause”.
___ As such, my focus is on creating concrete results that show up in the world.
___ Realize that I do not, and need not, know all that is needed nor have all the
abilities to create the result. As such, I create what is needed in terms of
resources to create whatever I intend in this world.
___ Am authentic.
___ Choose priorities, as I realize I can’t have everything but I can have anything
that I really want.
___ As a powerful person, I recognize that I am simply the “source” and that I am
not the stories, the acts, the roles, nor the experiences in my life. Since those
are not real, I realize I need not feed them and I realize that comfort is figment
of my imagination.
___ I see that fulfillment comes from filling my life fully with the creations I intend,
including my full self expression.
___ I see that, to create a game (that is other than one I wouldn’t choose) I
must have goals and that I must have a plan . (Buy, read, and use Steven
K. Scott's "Simple Steps To Impossible Dreams"
___ I commit to doing so.
___ Honor my word.
___ Complete, including mastering fully what is essential.
___ Am responsible for all that is in my world, at least for being at the place where
something happens and that it is I who create 100% of the response.
___ Totally take care of my body and my health.
___ Eat very healthily and I create a great breakfast.
___ Do not put bad things into my body.
___ As such, I no longer drink coffee or colas – they damage my ph balance.
___ Own my power and am not shy about it.
___ Act in a powerful manner in how I hold and move my body and speak
powerfully, yet compassionately.
___ As such, I accept that I will at times not be in my power and that I can restore
my power.
___ Treat all people with respect and compassion and I realize that what they do
that is not workable is due simply to blindspots – and I know that no one is at
fault or to blame for not seeing their blindspots, and I contribute what I can to
having them see, by some means, those blindspots.
___ Give the gift of powerful listening.
___ Live in integrity – realizing I am whole and complete and lacking nothing
___ I know who I am and I accept who I am.
I LOSE POWER WHEN I

something that may just be a “natural” part of my process.
___ Give myself over to what others will think of me or whether they will like me
or approve of me.
