There are some things you have to give up to the higher power.
Everyone has power. But it doesn't help if you don't use it.
Something I learned very early on in my career is that there are a lot of things that you do not have any power over.
Some folks hesitate to seize additional strength because they think it wrong or dangerous to be a powerful individual. Somehow they have acquired the false notion that tyranny or dictatorship or cruelty are the outcomes of a powerful personality. These characteristics are not power. They are weaknesses disguised as power.
I think every individual has his or her own power, and it's a matter of working, taking time and defining what that power is.
The thing that always strikes me is how much power one person has. Everybody has so much power to help and to change if they just exercise it and get after it.
Power over others is weakness disguised as strength.
Power can be taken, but not given. The process of the taking is empowerment in itself.
The best people to have power are the ones who don't want it.
The way to have power is to take it.
