10 Keys to Personal Power
Key 1: Clarity
"Have vision. Determine what you want to be, do or have in life. Have a sense of direction and know where you’re going. If you do not have clear specific goals in life, you are doomed forever to work for others who do."
We are living today in perhaps the very best time in all of human history. There have never been more opportunities and possibilities for more people to accomplish more of their goals than exist right now.The level of affluence has never been higher, the average life span has never been longer, the number of options available to you has never been greater and the world situation, in terms of peace and prosperity, has never been more stable.The first and most important of all the qualities you need to truly master your personal power is that of clarity.You must possess the ability to think clearly and with a degree of certainty.The ability to determine exactly what it is that you want to do, have or be in your life is the prerequisite for all personal and professional achievement.Clarity is the starting point of all success. Someone with no sense of where they are going will achieve very little if anything at all.I found this to be such a powerful truth in my own life.When I allowed my problems to get the best of me I lost all direction in life.When I came across a personal development program about the keys to building Personal Power and I listened to the section on clarity it was like a light bulb moment for me.
Key 2 : Competence
"If you commit to excellence, opportunities will always come your way. The harder you work, the better you get."Moving forward in life would be an extreme challenge if you were lacking competence. In developing your own personal power so that you may dictate your life you must develop the competence it takes to get ahead.Competence the second key to building your personal power! Competence is the commitment to becoming excellent in your chosen field.Any man or woman who achieved any level of success in any field of business or personal activity had to first decide to become excellent in that particular field.The power to choose your direction in life is truly in your own hands, if you just study these important keys to success you can achieve your most desired goals.If you are not good at what you do you haven’t a chance in our competitive society. Although your success is predictable if you become competent in your chosen field.Excellence doesn’t just happen upon you it only comes when you totally commit to being 100% competent in your chosen field.This is also true for your personal life, you must commit to truly working on improving yourself in all areas of your life.Remember the 80/20 rule which is where the top 20% of all salespeople make 80% of all the sales and conversely the bottom 80% only make up 20% of all the sales made.This has been proven study after study all over the country and the only difference is that the top 20% had made the decision to become excellent in everything they do in relation to their job.Competence is the key that opens the door to success. This is not only in business the same goes for your personal self-improvement.The successful people knew to build their personal power so that they could control the outcomes in their lives, they would have to become excellent at what they did.
They would do whatever it took to learn as much as they could, they would study the habits of the most successful people in their field and implement what they saw and learned into their own lives.
Key 3: Concentration
"Make the best use of your time. Ask yourself “Is this the best use of my time?” before you start anything."Concentration is critical for the accurate completion of the necessary tasks to accomplish any goal you have set for yourself.Make the best use of your time. Ask yourself “Is this the best use of my time” before you start anything. Before you start your day, before you get in the car, before you watch TV, before you do anything.Have a sense of urgency in everything you do.
Develop a reputation for getting things done FAST. If you develop this reputation, you create a fortune in life.Concentration: Key to effectiveness
a. Best use of time: ask constantly, “What’s the best use of my time?”
b. Develop sense of urgency. Do it now.
c. Completion of each task.
Key 4: Common Sense
Train your mind
think things through
listen to your intuition
learn from setbacks
Sometimes we have the ability to really make a simple situation much more complicated than it has to be. Where as if we slowed things down a bit and used some common sense everything would appear different to us.Action without thinking is the cause of every failure.Listen to your intuition. Your intuition is the best guide you have.Learn from your setbacks. Ask yourself “What is the valuable lesson I can learn from this experience?”When you really know who you are, you don’t have any doubts about who you are! Here is what I mean.Suppose you have an idea and you are looking for financial backing. Suppose you manage to meet with a group of investors who have the funds you need.Do you suppose you will be successful if you have something less than absolute clarity about who you are and what you intend to do? Not likely!However, suppose you prime your mind of success with an image of the radiantly confident person you are becoming. Furthermore, suppose you conduct yourself as this person who is radiantly confident.If this is the case, you will have attained clarity about who you are and what you wish to accomplish. You will be successful whether any given group of investors funds your enterprise or not.The real issue is your clarity. Attain this and the rest follows.

"The fear of failure is the single greatest reason for failure in life."
In developing our own personal power we must be able to display courage in the face of adversity.Pick out the person that you like the least that you deal with on a day to day basis. Next time you see that person, admire something about them. You can comment on their dress, grooming, work, or even their possessions.

Key 10: Confidence
"You only get confidence by doing things over and over again ." Confidence is the driving force to personal power and building a successful and fulfilled life.
Confidence comes as a result of everything else.. You only get confidence by doing things over and over again.Self doubt is the great paralyze of all activity. The only way to overcome it, is by doing the things we would normally would move away from. Continuously moving forward.If you persist until you succeed, you plug into your subconscious mind a success pattern.Once you have this pattern set down, you’ll be able to apply it to something else.
Self-doubt can paralyze
Self-confidence begets achievement
Behave confidently
Everyone wants to be popular with others. You want to be liked and respected among your friends, family, and associates. Above all, you want to like and respect yourself, and to feel yourself to be a valuable and important person. Fortunately, everything you do that makes other people feel good about themselves makes you feel good about yourself as well. You can actually improve the way you feel by making other people feel important. This is the key to great personal relationships.
