How to Step Into Your Power Right Now

Mike Masters 2 min read Article + video

The deeper you go down the rabbit hole, the more you realise how much of what we were taught is just a set of beliefs, designed to keep us from noticing how powerful we really are.

Stepping into your power doesn’t start with a big move. It starts with getting quiet enough to hear yourself again.

Spend time alone, and in nature

Nature is quiet. Birds, wind, maybe a squirrel. No screens, no opinions. In that quiet you can look inside and see who you actually are, not who the media and everyone around you told you that you are.

Think about the things you always loved doing and were good at, until someone told you that you weren’t. You believed them and you gave up. If you’d kept going, you would have mastered that skill long ago.

When you’re alone with yourself, there’s nobody saying “you suck at this”. So say the honest thing instead: maybe I’m not perfect at it, but I’m quite good, and if I keep practising, I’ll get better. Be your own motivation. Most of these videos came to me while I was out in nature.

Cut the distractions

Movies all day, games all day, a dead-end job that only gets you to the end of the month, and month after month, life goes by.

Keep what you truly need to survive and cut the rest. Then commit that time to your own evolution. The more you work on your qualities, the more there is to you, and the more people want to be around you, because now you actually have something to offer.

And dare to try the things your heart wants, even the ones with a “forbidden” sign on them. Make the mistake and learn from it. You’ll find that not everything labelled dangerous is harmful. Some of it is labelled that way precisely because it would set you free.

Don’t be a spare battery

In the video I go into the part that hit people hardest: why the system keeps a supply of spare “batteries” ready to replace anyone who stops charging it, what it means to be a reserve player waiting on the bench, and how to become the one person in your game nobody can replace.

Keep going
