Empowerment - The Gift We Should ALL Be Giving.

So it was recently after meeting another random soul along my travels, they brought it to my attention that the traits I possess and have always had, are not naturally encompassed by all.

I have always been an empathetic person, from as far back as I can remember and aware of people and my surroundings, but I find it hard to understand why everybody isn't..?
I mean, it's really not that hard to keep an eye out for people...

Why is it easier for people to knock others down, instead of building them up and encouraging them to be the best they can be..?
It's becoming more and more apparent with people from what I am witnessing around me.

I am luck to be blessed with a loving network around me, who inspire me as much as I do them, but if we all took the time to do this, then it would encourage people to feel better about themselves and start building confidence from within and it's the core which we all need to continuously work on.

This also crosses over into class divides too, seems the higher class of person is respected and treated better than the working class, but WHY?
WE ARE ALL HUMANS WHO FEEL.

It appears that if people start progressing and thinking they have the abilities to follow their dreams, it is frowned upon and that people start getting "above their stations" just because they have the determination to live a life more content.

Do people do this because they are scared if someone has higher self-esteem they will progress further than the next person?
So what if they do?!?
Have you ever thought to yourself...if they are your true friends, they would be accompanying you on the journey to a better life anyway...or perhaps the question should be, are these people really your friends?

And what is it within ourselves that makes many of us afraid to break the chain of negative thinking? 
Yes it is hard, yes it is a struggle and for some of us, it's all we know from our life's trials and tribulations and the way we are raised...
But when we start changing this self-demeaning habits, life begins to turn around into may positives, it's a lot easier and happier living with a positive mindset, than a negative,"it's never going to happen for me" one. 
But it's all about re-training our brains to believe that WE ARE ALL WORTH IT, WE CAN DO IT AND ACHIEVE WITH IT!!

It's then UP TO US to spread the word to others to make us a POSITIVE GROUP COLLECTIVE of MAJORITY.
Prime examples in the news recently have been Will Smith boycotting the Oscars and Beyonce's Performance at the Superbowl - it is so refreshing to see people who have positions in power trying to make a statement for others, as it done with heart, yes it may bring them more attention as a result, but they included in the message they are trying to communicate.

I have opened doors and encouraged many people, often without a thank you, but I do not do it to be thanked...
I love nothing more than planting seeds, observing people as they evolve and grow confidence within themselves to realise their own abilities then watching them fly!!

I - and many other inspiring people I have a the honor of knowing - are proof that you can do anything if you put your mind to it.
Ask the Universe it will guide, direct and show you the way...sometimes along the way you then discover it's not what you wanted and then it might take you into a different direction, which is usually considered by others to be the harder road but more often than not an immense amount more fun to travel down!

The people in my life know the dream is to create empowerment to strengthen Communities and I have already made steps to do this and plan a bigger impact, but in the meanwhile I will use my posts as a tool to sound the Trumpet and celebrate the awe-inspiring projects, ceremonies, the small businesses and music functions coming your way, the unknown unsung Warriors and Angels who are bringing light and love to the environment around them.
In the meantime when you're out and about and you notice something great happening or somebody doing something magical - tell them!

If you think a friend has a talent they don't know about, make that suggestion you might have been holding back for years...it really is that simple!

By empowering others, we also enrich ourselves with serotonin-like feelings, as you cannot help but feel great when you know deep in your heart you've done the right thing and turned someone else's day around and shone your light their way.

So if you do know if anything happening in your areas and would like me to feature you, please reach out and send me a message and I'll be more than happy to shower you with light and make your cause shine brighter!!
