Power is measured by the ability to take action, how quickly decisions are made, and how
responsible we are for treating others when in our power.
This short report focuses on how you too can be more powerful to make a positive
difference to business, your life and on others.

Some People Just Won’t Like You.
GET OVER IT!
Accept it; you are not going to be liked by everyone.
One of the biggest human needs is to connect with
others; after all we are pack animals. This need to be
liked does reduce our power and turns us into people
pleasers.
It’s okay that not everyone likes you. Having true power
is being able to use it to get along with others.

Powerful Connections
Power comes with connections. So make sure that you
connect with other people who hold powerful
positions.
By association others will also perceive you as powerful
and your name will come up in their discussions.
So when opportunities present themselves, you already
have a foot through the door!

Rebel With A Cause
When you follow the rules all the
time you are just another person in
the crowd. Take a gamble, be a rebel,
it can be well worth taking.
Stick your neck out for something
worth fighting for. Go against the
grain.
That’s how powerful leaders are
made.

Image
Create a powerful image,
through appearance,
physique and image.
People will form a first
impression on what they
see first and foremost.

Behave Like The Person You
Aspire To Be
You are what you think you
are.
Walk, talk and dress like the
person you want to be.
That way you get closer to
becoming the person you
aspire to be like.

Beware of Backing Down
Confrontation can be seen as
passion, belief and confidence.
Should others perceive weakness in
you, then you inevitably are.
If you constantly back down, others
will take advantage and not respect
you.

Surround Yourself With Experts
It is impossible to know
everything, so ensure you
know where to find the
answers.
George W Bush was not
the smartest guy in the
world but he was
surrounded by experts to
provide quality advice.

Do Your Impact Assessment
Some have a high belief in
themselves, whilst others
have little.
With a Personal Impact
Profile to highlight your
strengths and identify
weaknesses you can
concentrate on the key
areas to improve.

Respect Others
Be careful who you step on
when on the way up, as they
will step on you harder on
the way down.
Power has an expiry date.
Treat people with respect
and that power can last a lot
longer than most.

Challenge Yourself Physically
Putting your body through a physical
challenge leads your mind to realise
that you can do more than it
originally thought. It improves your
posture that adds to you feeling the
power.
Our confidence increases when we
feel stronger and fitter.
A powerful body is a powerful mind.

Be Well Read
Learning adds to your personal growth, as
knowledge is power.
Knowledge allows you to converse with others
at a higher level, make better decisions and
makes others to turn to you for the answers.
Your expertise and knowledge is a powerful tool,
don’t be too eager in the beginning to show
your hand.

Self Belief
Believe in your abilities.
Don’t sell yourself short. Remember your
successful achievements.
Many without initial power have achieved
extraordinary results by applying self belief.
Arnold Schwarzenegger has achieved major
success applying this method of self belief.

Less Talk, More Doing
Don’t tell people what you
are going to do before you
do it.
Go and do it to show your
power through action.
If you state you are
powerful then you
probably aren't.
Show them instead.

Don’t Make Yourself Too Available
Being seen in the early stages
builds your reputation. When
established be selective on your
appearances.
Madonna is rarely seen, yet when
she does, the media are there to
report immediately so her
unavailability leads to power.
