“Willpower is the key to success. Successful people strive no matter what they feel by applying their will to overcome apathy, doubt or fear.” ~ Dan Millman
What is self-mastery? It is a conscious control of the self; self-control and self-discipline. But what does all that mean to you and me?
A master is someone who is an expert, someone who commands enough knowledge or “power” to lead or rule others. A master is a person whose energy and self leadership is aligned with their purpose; one who easily directs personal power to attract the right people, in the right place and at the right time. Effectively a master is a leader and self-mastery stems from self-leadership and inner energy.
Everyone has the capabilities to do many things really well. Many of us work very hard to become masters in what we do. We work to become the best manager, employee, sales person or administrator. But, essentially, there is only one thing that we can ever really truly master and it really does not involve much effort at all – being who we are.
Each of us is unique, one of a kind. There has never and will never be another one. We are each perfect, unique beings capable of true greatness. It is when we share our unique gifts with the world in the way we are meant to, is when we will be considered a Self-master.
Self-Mastery is made of up 3 parts:
- Understanding
- Discovery
- Sharing
In order to move towards self-mastery, one must first come to realize and understand that we are each unique beings with a unique gift offering to the world. It is a gift that can be realized through the discovery of our authentic self. In sharing our authentic self and our unique gifts with the world in a way that only we can we are able to achieve self-mastery.
Self-mastery is not in what we do or how we do something but found in knowing who we authentically are and being our authentic self in all that we do. Rather than searching externally, why not slow down, relax and go within to find that which you are really seeking?
Self-Mastery is directly connected with energy and self leadership. It means living an abundant, fulfilling and enjoyable life. One in which you are at the cause, instead of the effect of your life. It is being in control without controlling anyone or anything.
What could be better than resonating at a high energy with the ability to effortlessly attract into your life all that you truly desire?
“The state of your life is nothing more than a reflection of your state of mind.” –Dr. Wayne W. Dyer
The work in energy and leadership coaching is self-mastery through consciously guiding core energy to match our inner thoughts or “self-talk” with our deepest desires. Starting with understanding our uniqueness, discovering our authentic self and expressing our authentic self by sharing our gift with the world, we cultivate the energy and develop the self leadership skills to bring about self-mastery.
