Summary

Too many people think power is a crown or a title—you get it, you wear it, and suddenly you’re powerful. That’s not real power. Real power isn’t something you hold or show off; it’s a current that flows through your actions, decisions, and self-discipline. A title, a role, even social media followers can be taken away—but a current moves through you no matter what. In this episode, I break down how to understand power the right way and how to tap into it as a steady force, not a thing you chase. Show Notes: [03:07]#1 Power moves. [08:39]#2 You cannot fake a current. [14:02]#3 Power requires maintenance and upkeep.

1:06.0	Or some type of crown that you put on your head. Once you have this and this and this,
1:09.8	so you can check these two or three boxes now, all a sudden you're a person to power, whereas five minutes ago you were not. Or some type of status role. You get this many followers on social media now that must mean that you have power, but when you just had 10 fewer followers, you didn't quite hit the, you didn't quite pass the Mendoza line yet.
