Making Power Moves

In life, you have to live boldly.

For one, it’s a lot more fun that way.

Two, you just get a lot more done.

Three, you feel better and elevate your status.

And there are many more side effects of this, like increased confidence, and attractiveness, better decision making, etc. but I won’t be going into those today.

When you live life boldly it means you do what you want without apology and you are not afraid to do it big. You will bet on yourself.

It’s why when I first started my coaching program, I was thinking about what kind of guarantee I could offer people. At first, I thought I’d have no guarantee because I want people to be fully committed, and it’s true, that kind of thing will do that, but the problem is I like to go big and bold so I changed it to 100% money back. (see link below for details).

A power play, bigger, bolder.

Have you ever had someone talking to you, wasting your time, and insulting you at the same time? Yet you feel like you need to be polite, stand there, and just take it because you don’t want to be rude?

What’s the power play? Walk away. Take back control, you don’t have to listen to it just because social norms dictate that it is rude. Walk away. Now of course this has to come with some awareness and social skills, understanding the situation. But you do not have to take crap from anybody. Seriously.

I have had people who I know are convicted murderers talking trash to me and I walked away mid conversation, I don’t care.

I remember back when I was in high school,

a long time ago but this will give you some context as to how long I have been playing these games and studying these dynamics,

In between classes walking through the halls, I would purposely stand up tall, walk confidently, and just walk straight telling myself I was not moving for anyone. I remember the first time I did it I thought I was going to run into a bunch of people.

Wrong, turns out, basically everyone moved out of my way.

The only people who didn’t were those completely oblivious to their surroundings.

Come to learn later in life that when we see someone walking towards us, there is an instant where we analyze everything we see. Body language, face, dress, posture, confidence, size, strength, looks, status, everything. It all gets analyzed instinctually in a moment and it is decided who will move. Often it’s both, rarely it’s nobody, and if that happens it’s a power play for dominance.

I digress.

My point is that your intention will force people and things out of your way, they will clear you a path. It is the same thing in life, if you live boldly, hold your head high, give yourself a higher sense of status and confidence without flinching, and have a clearly defined purpose, all of the obstacles will be easier to overcome and your path will be much more clear.

Life tends to never give us a completely clear path though, it will always throw obstacles at you to overcome. Always.

However, if you can live boldly and willing to make power moves on a daily basis they will be much easier to handle.

Think of this, when in extreme sports doing tricks and stunts you have to full send. You have to commit. If you don’t commit to the jump, the trick, or whatever it is you are doing you are much more likely to get a serious injury, every single time.

When you commit to attacking life and it’s obstacles you will find that they are easier to overcome.

All you need is the right mindset, and be willing to make power moves.

WARNING! ONLY FOR COMMITTED AND SERIOUS PEOPLE.

If this is something you want to further increase in yourself, elevate your status, increase confidence, and live life boldly and unapologetically.
