When I first heard this quote, I’ll admit I was a little confused: why would anyone be afraid of their own power? But the more I thought about it, the more I realized how much truth there is in these words.
You see, many of us have been taught to be humble and not draw too much attention to ourselves. We’ve been taught to focus on our weaknesses instead of our strengths, and to be satisfied with mediocrity. But the thing is, that’s not who we really are.
Deep down, we all have an inner light that’s just waiting to be unleashed. We all have the potential to do amazing things and make a real difference in the world. But too often, we hold ourselves back because we’re afraid of what might happen if we let our light shine.
Maybe we’re afraid of being judged or criticized. Maybe we’re afraid of failing, or of the responsibility that comes with success. Maybe we have that inner voice, that inner critic, pulling us down all the time. Whatever the reason, our fear of our own power keeps us from reaching our full potential.
But here’s the thing: our power is not something to be afraid of. It’s something to embrace and celebrate. When we let our light shine, we inspire others to do the same. We create a ripple effect of positivity that can spread throughout the world.
So, if you’re feeling stuck or afraid to let your light shine, remember that you are powerful beyond measure. You have the ability to do incredible things and make a real difference in the world. Don’t let your fear hold you back. Embrace your power, and let your light shine bright for all to see.
