What kinds of things are on your mental to-do list that you haven't taken care of? Do you think about them from time to time and your heart sinks? Do you feel just a little bit guilty or anxious when you think about them? If so, those thoughts are stealing your energy and your ability to move forward with creating the life of your dreams. Here are some of the things that are on a lot of people's to-do lists, that they know they should have done a long time ago but just haven't gotten around to it:
. Making a will.
. Saving enough for an emergency fund.
. Getting a Power of Attorney so that someone can take care of your business if you are
incapacitated.
. Getting an Advance Directive so that your family will know your wishes in case you are dying and can't say what you want.
. Paying off your debts.
You aren't alone. No one really WANTS to do this stuff. But we know we should. And we feel bad about it. But we don't do it. So, make this the year that you get this stuff out of your head and accomplished. You will feel like a truly grown up, responsible person. You will love that feeling. And you will love the sudden burst of energy you will get when you check that stuff off your list!
Empowerment enhances the ability of individuals or organizations to make choices and transform those choices into positive outcomes. Empowered people have recognized their own value and strength and their capacity to handle life's problems. In turn they are better able to influence the course of their lives. With information and support, most people can find within themselves the power to direct their lives and reach their dreams.
