We all have an inner strength, most of which is hidden, caged, and ready to be unleashed. It is formed within layers of our personality, internal cognitions, and external experiences. Some of our strengths are easily identified by ourselves or those around us, whereas others only manifest within the diversity and challenges we face personally, professionally, and/or privately. We seek refuge in remembering words of wisdom set before us by others we cherish (e.g., mom, dad, preacher, and teacher). Other times, we seek guidance from coaches, mentors, therapists, and friends.
Yet, still, there is a tendency to trail back to our personal experiences and the triumphs we’ve overcome to find peace and understanding in times of trial and tribulations.
Know that your strength within is only a layer away from preparing you to stand in the wake of the storm, enable you to be open as you embark upon your breakthrough, create gratitude within your success; and offer patience and solitude in the meekest hours.
Capture the moment, take the initiative, and create the time to identify your emotions, characteristics, and instincts that are the beacon of your strengths. Identify and choose your influence, inner circle of friends, and confidants wisely. Allow the chosen few to assist and direct you in peeling away and unleashing your inner strength. Within this realm, you will allow yourself to be happy and open to unconditional love and support from both yourself and others.
