6 Powerful Ways to Use Self-Empowerment daily
“You can, you should, and if you’re brave enough to start, you will.” – Stephen King
As you explore your sense of self-empowerment, you’ll learn that you can call upon it often to serve you in your everyday life. As you get more comfortable with feeling self-empowered, consider these powerful ways you can use more self-empowerment to improve your daily life.
Powerful Way 1: Challenge yourself to try something new and unfamiliar.
Self-empowerment and confidence work well together. Use their energies to challenge yourself to try something new and unfamiliar. For example, you can try food from a cuisine you’ve never eaten. You can visit a new place, sign up for a class on something you know little about, or try a new activity. Use your self-empowerment to explore more of the world – you’ll learn new skills and information along the way.
Powerful Way 2: Pick a self-improvement project and begin working on it.
Self-empowerment is a tremendous personal growth motivator. Select something about yourself you’d like to improve or grow. Have you always wanted to learn a new language? Do you want to become a better chef? Are you hoping to learn how to use meditation to calm anxiety? Whatever your personal improvement or growth project may be, start working on it a little bit each day. Self-empowerment motivates you to explore, grow, and do better – harness that energy to begin making minor improvements to yourself each day.
Powerful Way 3: Talk to someone you usually wouldn’t.
Talking to other people is a great way to learn more about the world around you, hear fresh perspectives, and build great new relationships. Use your self-empowerment to talk to someone you usually wouldn’t, such as your coworker from a different department or a neighbour you occasionally wave at.
Talking to folks you usually wouldn’t empowers you to learn more and build potential relationships with them. Challenging yourself to talk to people you usually wouldn’t speak to empowers you to learn and develop new relationships.
Powerful Way 4: Assess your life and see if any aspect is no longer positively serving you.
Self-empowerment also works well with reflection. Take some time to consider everything happening in your life. Are you currently dealing with a toxic relationship? Are you following an old routine that no longer serves its purpose? Identifying areas like these in your life is the first step toward flexing your self-empowerment abilities and taking action to change or remove them.
Powerful Way 5: Make good decisions for your mental and physical health.
Use your self-empowerment to make decisions that are good for your mental and physical health. You can make good choices to care for yourself, and you can use self-empowerment each day to help yourself make them – even when it’s difficult.
Powerful Way 6: Let someone know when something’s wrong.
Are you too nervous about complaining when your restaurant order is prepared wrong? Does the thought of raising a work concern with your supervisors make you cringe? If so, you can start using self-empowerment to voice these complaints and concerns to others.
If you decide that everything wrong in your life is okay and accept it, you’ll eventually notice yourself feeling dissatisfied. Though there are some occasions where allowing bad things to pass is OK, doing it constantly isn’t. Use those self-empowerment muscles to raise concerns – doing so is the first step toward solving the issues.
