The Empower Hour Call tonight was .. POWERFUL. Hosted by Empower Network’s President and Co-Founder, Dave Sharpe.
He is a very powerful leader and just has a very compelling story that never fails to inspire those who would care to listen. (I did listen), and I sent some invites by email and by text message to people I know and I just hoped and hope they would also try and call in to just listen – because ever since I have joined Empower Network, there has never been ANY Empower Hour call that I listened to, that didn’t affect me positively. And we all need it. (Maybe I need it more than they do! LOL!)
He talks about how there were people who believed in him when he was struggling with addiction and alcoholism and when he was at the lowest point of his life. And he is a very lucky man. He had people and have people who genuinely loved and cared for him.
I see the power of transformation in a broken person – who has at least one person in this planet who care for him/her and who still believe in that person. That’s powerful and that is transformational. But what about those people who don’t have anybody?
When I started with Empower Network, I felt like I was at the lowest point in my life – questioning everything that I have ever done in my life, and my life’s choices, like everything I did was wrong – that even this decision was wrong, in other people’s eyes. And when one feels lost, you try and find something, someone, to help you, and if there’s no one to help you, you help yourself. 
That’s when prayer – heartfelt prayer, comes in handy. And you feel lighter. Some preacher, might have said something that gave you a glimmer of hope. Tomorrow is another day.
I guess that was why the Inner Circle Training was so very helpful for me, because hearing these stories from these leaders (they are leaders because they were/are the Empower Network high-income earners, they are on the top 10 List), who have been in their lowest low of their lives, found something that propelled them to look into themselves – they took ownership of what they did wrong, and shook off false teachings that kept them down. Stayed away from negative people who just whined or squabbled and of course in effect would also tend to influence them negatively. Some leaders had “lists” – some didn’t.
I have said that it has been “cathartic for me” because I felt like I can have a voice – a voice that can be heard. Blogging daily can do that. It was and is a good exercise. Then what? Blog about anything…
There’s way too many different strategies being taught at the 15K Formula Training and as what has been advised there, try which one works with you. And before you see success, you will see failure first. And I guess it is because of my own struggles BEFORE I went to the Austin Texas Event that made me see and experience the POWER of Events. And the power of listening to positive audios. It has to be a conscious effort to KEEP FOCUSED on this newly learned positive habit and to protect it at all costs.
I am still in the learning process and in the APPLYING process. And I am amazed at seeing where I am going – I am on that path. Finally!
So, when you start this journey at Empower Network? I can never stress it enough – protect your focus! Help others? But if you SENSE them not appreciating nor needing the help – let them be, let them go. It’s not your job to change their negative mindset. Protect your peace, protect your clarity, have a “take it or leave it” attitude. That’s how you can recognize who really sees your value.
“You cannot lock up greatness. Our surroundings need not control our spirits. People who devalue us do not determine our value! And out of our brokenness we can be made whole and bring healing to others!” – John Maxwell
We cannot have outgoing love if we do not have it within. So, if you feel undervalued or not valued? Value yourself!
Join the Empower Network that will help you in that journey! It’s been helping and it is still helping me!
