There are only 2 things to know if you have some power, number one is you are immovable and number 2 is you can move pieces or you can move right away.
YOU ARE IMMOVABLE
They can't move you, they can't kick you out, they can't just put you to garbage, they can't evict you even if they don't like you because you have some value. The company can't fire you because you are too skilled or maybe you are too disciplined, you have some asset. The landlord can't evict you because he knows you will get an attorney or you will fight back. The coach can't trade you because you have that skills, he can't bench you because you bring some value to the team. They can't simply move you or push you because they knew they're in trouble, they knew something bad will happen. You are a force, you can affect the situation if you're not around, you can fight back whenever a disrespect is happening, that's one sign that you have some power. They can't just ask you to do things and you have no power to say no, you have the power to make no comments or simply take no action, they can't force you to move because you have some power or luxury to make decisions on your own. You're like a rock, they can't just tell you to go away because you have some value, you are respected for what you can bring on the table. You have the skills, you have the assets and you're not a liability. And speaking of being a liability, if you're one of these people who are weak and cannot make something better then you will be pushed around all the time, you will be controlled, you will be a last option and there is nothing you can do about it.
YOU CAN MAKE A MOVE WHEN YOU NEED TO
You can move when you don't like your environment, you can rent a new apartment or take a vacation, you can even buy a new house. You can replace your car, shoes, place without having to ask for help from anyone. You can move pieces, you can make money anytime, you can make an impact, you can affect any situation, you can leave if you don't want what's going on and nothing can stop you. You are decisive, you are bold and you can manipulate elements around you. You are unstoppable, you can instantly buy something, transfer something, change something without putting your future in jeopardy. In just a snap of your finger you can make a decision that will not put you on a lower position.
IT DOESN'T MEAN YOU WILL USE YOUR POWER ALL THE TIME
Sometimes not using your power is the real power, being patient, knowing that there are some better things to focus on is more powerful. It's good to know that you have some power but using it all the time will make you powerless. You don't need to show them how strong you are, stay humble and just use power whenever you need to. Just be humble and that's enough, you don't need to be loud, it's ok to look powerless, not trying to crave for people's respect or attention is one sign of real powerful man.
DISCIPLINE CREATES POWER
Use your time to create power. Create wealth, develop the right skills, make yourself healthier and stronger. Be an asset, be an inspirational, be someone who can carry the team, be someone who can be trusted. Be the light, be the power. Be disciplined enough so you won't be a liability. Be independent, don't ask for help whenever you don't need to. Stop pampering yourself stop being too soft. Do everything you can to get more powerful.
