The Power of Words

9/1/2016

1 Comment

 
We often underestimate the power of our words. In our school days adults tell us that 'sticks and stones may break our bones but words can never hurt us'. The truth is however that words are a lot more powerful than we are lead to believe.
The words we hear can turn into beliefs and as Ghandi said: ​
“Your beliefs become your thoughts,
Your thoughts become your words,
Your words become your actions,
Your actions become your habits,
Your habits become your values,
Your values become your destiny.”
We must be careful with our words when we speak to others and especially when we speak of ourself. I'm sure you remember moments like this in your life:
Our word can take away or give us power for example study the lists of words below.
The column below has words that provoke fear or mistrust.

They are words of expectation. They make other people (or fate) responsible for your happiness, satisfaction or feelings of love.

Expectations:

I should
I can’t
I have to
Someday
It’s not my fault
I deserve
Always
Never

This column lists words that are empowering.

These are words of intention. They put the power back into your hands by making you accountable for your actions.


Intention:


I decide
I can
I choose to
Today
I am responsible
I commit
Frequently
Seldom

Consciously make a choice to use words that empower you and impact others. 
​Watch your life change as it did for this man in the video!
