Sometimes we can lose sight of our personal power. Thanks to work, life, and relationships, pushing your ego down and letting others take wins or resources they need can become a habit. But it’s not always bad to encourage your ego. In fact, sometimes, we need to give ourselves a little ego boost to be confident. We’re all unique, and we should embrace our differences. Trying to suppress our egos will only keep us from being our true selves.
It’s essential to maintain a balance in life. Some people live too much in their egos, and as a result, they become narcissistic. They can’t separate themselves from anything because they don’t know who they are without their egos. It’s vital to find alignment and balance in life.
The art of the retreat: How to recenter yourself and find your personal power.
The “retreat” is a time away from the enemy’s powerful influence. It’s an opportunity to withdraw and focus on our own survival. Unlike the typical vision of beaches and palm trees, the actual definition of retreat reminds us that it is essential to survival. We can realign our spirit, body, and mind through the retreat. We can give ourselves a chance to find our personal power.
It’s important to understand that retreating can be beneficial. If your intuition tells you to slow down, it may be because you’re constantly fighting. We’re always fighting for attention, against fear and doubt, isolation and burnout. But when we retreat, we can take a step back and recalibrate our minds and spirit. This is what retreats are for: to help us become more of who we are so that we can shine brightly and reclaim our personal power.
Finding your personal power: Withdrawal from society and societal norms.
Sometimes we need to retreat from society or societal norms to find our personal power. One of the hardest things to retreat from is family and familial traditions. But it’s important to remember that family dynamics and traditions are not always healthy.
In fact, some traditions are so old that we don’t even know why they started in the first place. We must be careful about blindly following tradition without knowing its origins or purpose. Sometimes it’s better to step back, or retreat, and take a critical view rather than just going along with things because that’s what we’ve always done.
Finding your personal power through evolution.
Mother Teressa, Gandhi, and Dali Lama all underwent a spiritual transformation. Have you ever retreated from the material world to experience Heaven here on earth? It takes this process of evolution to get there.
“Stand your ground for righteousness for your self-protection for sanity.” From the outside looking in, it sounds narcissistic, like you are out to protect yourself. However, in reality, you are in the process of evolution.
The flow of evolution
- Revolution
- Involution
- Narcissism
- Evolution
In retreat, you can evolve.
The revolution is essential for experiencing greatness. Part of this involves pushing others away. Through evolution, you can achieve your purpose and expand your horizons. This is where you find your personal power again.
If you’re ever wondering why you feel “stuck,” it’s because you’re not protecting yourself. When you stop pointing fingers and start raising your hand, you’re taking inventory of your life. Your retreat into yourself, away from the wars with the outside world, is your action to protect yourself.
Retreat and find your personal power with a little ego boost.
It’s time to move past the ego and into your higher sense of self. You need to let go of your need for control and power and allow yourself to be vulnerable. This journey is all about the process, not the destination. There is no end to evolution, only continued growth. Take time for regular retreats to keep moving forward in this cycle. Surrender your control over the universe and live in the moment.
