Regaining Your Personal Power
by Lesley K Petersen   
Rated "G" by the Author.
     
      View this Article

An article that shares some stories as examples of how to keep hold of your personal power in the face of other people's negative behaviour and communication.

Have you ever felt powerless, a sense of having no control over the circumstances you find yourself in?

 

This feeling can be caused by any number of things, from having no plan or goals in place to map your own direction to other people and their behaviour towards you.

 

The second of these examples is what we will focus on here, as it is a common situation in many aspects of our lives – dealing with other people’s behaviour and attitudes at work, in business transactions, in our family lives, etc. In these situations, we can come across a whole raft of personalities, attitudes and behaviours that either complement our own (we then often forge friendships, collegial support or positive intimate relationships) or create conflict in our lives.
