Personal Power

God, help me redirect my life so that I can forge something more satisfying and self-actualizing for me.

It came as a surprise for us, trainers, to discover that among an elite group of intellectually-gifted teen-agers whose wellness program we facilitated, laziness and being laid back ranked among the highest in the list of self-confessed traits or attitudes they would consider major blocks in their student life. They loved school, but they hated studying! They were lost as to how to motivate themselves and they were, for the large part, just distracting themselves with activities, entertaining themselves with trivialities, and immersing themselves in noise.

Personal Power = Awareness + Responsibility

We need to develop the will and the determination to create the kind of life we envision for ourselves that impels us to attain the highest level of excellence our personal life can reach.

God is not yet done with us and we definitely are works in progress.

All the powers we need to fulfill our role and purpose has already been given to us, or better said, been built into us.

Affirmation: I empower others even as I empower myself.
