Empower Yourself by

Breaking the Rules

Breaking the rules can empower you – really. Rules can severely limit your beliefs and purpose in life, keeping you back from expressing emotions and from trying new things. Now I’m not advocating you break the law, so do keep things in perspective but read on and see what I say resonates with you. Think about the negative things you tell yourself on a daily basis – “My parents/teachers said I couldn’t do that,” “I don’t have the brains to succeed,” “Nobody will want to dance with me.” Each of these negative thoughts are derived from a rule of society that needs to be broken. If your parents/teachers said you couldn’t do something you’re passionate about, defy them. Break the rule and try. Unless you try, you may choose a path which will keep you unhappy the remainder of your life – or at least sad that you didn’t try. When you stand like a statue in a group setting and let someone disrespect you or someone else without speaking up, you’re demeaning yourself – and that’s horrible for your self- esteem. Speaking up and defending yourself or the belief or person can help you feel proud of yourself and have acted based on your own belief system – and bravery in the face of others who may want to put you down. You may have been through one or several painful experiences in your past which has made an impact on your psyche and is still keeping you from moving forward with power and a purpose in life. Dealing with the negatives that are defining you now is the only way to combat the experience and move on successfully with your life. That may mean breaking the rules that have held you back. The empowerment you gain from taking action will do wonders for your mindset. At some point, you know you are more than what your negative experiences have made you. You know through self-reflection that the blame is not all yours and that you can gain back your power with determination and knowledge. Engaging in optimism in your life thoughts and trusting yourself to do the right thing are important in the empowering process. Find joy in breaking the rules which has kept you back, made you feel cynical about life and do not compare yourself to others. Be your own guide when it comes to empowering yourself. Do not let others dictate what you should and shouldn’t be. Follow your own rules and guidelines for that, always being aware of the consequences and rewards of breaking a rule. If after reading this you have reflected on some of the beliefs or rules you are living by and realise they are negative and holding you back then change them. If you struggle to change it’s because they are deep rooted at an unconscious level, at which stage it would be useful to use hypnosis to tap into those beliefs and change them to positive and constructive beliefs that can give you the life you want.
