Self Empowerment in Action
If you’ve ever been stuck in a rut of inertia before, you probably know the sense of helpless futility that takes over your life. You want your life to change, but you feel powerless to do anything about it yourself. You may find yourself constantly making plans to improve your life, but never quite getting around to taking action because it seems so intimidating. You even know you procrastinate, but you still linger in lethargic thought.
Though taking action can intimidate and frighten you, but it can also empower you! If you learn to use it effectively, it can provide the fuel to keep you moving forward toward creating fulfilling life circumstances. When you do this, you realize that there was never anything to fear in the first place, and you’ll never get stuck again! You just have to realize that with many things in life, taking that first step and getting started is always the hardest part, but once in motion, there is no stopping momentum.
Below are three simple steps that show you how to get started:
1) First, be sure you understand that your life is the way it is right now because of your hesitation in taking action! It is a fact that everyone is where there are in there life because of the thoughts and actions. This is important, because you’ll understand the importance of moving forward no matter how anxious it makes you feel at first. It is only up from here.
Then, decide on one action to take to get the ball rolling. Think about your life right now, and ask yourself which situations you want to change first. You might choose your career, relationships, health, financial situation, or anything else that makes you feel powerless and stuck. Then think about one simple action you can take to inspire some positive change. It doesn’t have to be a huge action, just SOMETHING to start building momentum. Remember this quote by Jim Rohn-”Success is just a few small disciplines practiced everyday.”
2) Once you’ve decided on your action step, you’ll have to push yourself to take it no matter what! This may seem incredibly difficult or even scary, but remember that most often the things you fear are not going to happen. The Acronym for fear is False Evidence Appearing Real. In fact, you may not even have a clear reason for feeling scared – you’re just afraid of the “unknown”. Give yourself a pep talk or push yourself in any way you have to in order to move forward at least a little bit. After you take that first step, be sure to let go of any expectations of the things that will happen because of it, and allow yourself to feel great simply because you did something about it!
3) Repeat with the same step, and/or others. Once you’ve taken one step forward, you’ll need to keep pushing yourself to take others. Consider this: Even if you take a hundred small steps in a month, you’ll be putting forth positive effort to make changes in your life, which cannot help but bring about better circumstances! In a very short period of time, you will be amazed on how empowered you feel.
The good news is that taking action quickly begins to build momentum. Just as chronic non-action can create a cycle of negativity and stagnation over time, being proactive can create a positive cycle that continues to grow! It gets easier the more you do it, which eventually makes it seem almost effortless – and you continue to empower and strengthen yourself with every step you take.
Look for new goals and challenges after every accomplishment so you will continue to strive and grow to become more and more empowered with each achievement. Congratulations, you have taken a first step by reading this article. To your continued success,
