It is a natural phenomenon to identify the power in living beings and nature. We can also rate the power in terms of a pyramid just as we do for the food chain i.e. carnivores at the top and herbivores at the bottom, the reason for which is the availability of more food for the herbivores. Nature identifies the power. It is a natural tendency of living beings to identify power and seek protection from the powerful. It is not very difficult to sense and feel the power of a personality. Those who are naturally powerful manifest their dominion by their actions, deeds and words. We can see a lot of examples of powerful personalities who are ideally known as leaders in their fields of excellence. To be powerful is not a trick that you can learn in a day or two and there is no 15-day course that can teach you to be powerful. You have to nurture and nourish your own personality by continuously teaching yourself to be hardworking, brave and courageous. You have to work hard on yourself every day of your life. You have to choose to be healthy, punctual, disciplined, hard-working, aware, learned and wise if you want to be powerful. It is a choice you have to make every day. You cannot be lazy, lethargic, confused, ignorant and unaware. Judiciousness plays a big role in your choice of lifestyle. To be judicious in your decisions will help you in the long run. This is the real wisdom for success and to be powerful. One should make extra efforts to be judicious and wise in one’s choices and decisions. To exercise discretion with wisdom is the real mantra. One can always make use of one’s own experiences and lessons learnt while exercising that discretion.
Lethargy is the biggest enemy of success. No matter where you are stuck, always be proactive and vigilant. To make a decision is the best decision. No decision wastes time. It breeds confusion. Always be decisive, but make sure that the decision is made with utmost wisdom and knowledge.
To be decisive is the sign of a powerful personality, and when it is made with wise choices and for the benefit of humanity, it rarely misses the point i.e. to exert the power to deliver and command for all those who are dependent on you. That is the right decision, and it can never go wrong.
