Taking responsibility for your life and how you create your physical reality is your SUPERPOWER, especially in the way you communicate and relate with people in your life.
We have a choice to stand on the sidelines and not speak up or step up when there are challenging situations with the people and organizations in our lives. Our relationships are stressful when we get caught in power struggles, misunderstandings, and emotional triggers.
Stepping up and taking responsibility is our superpower when we are presenting a solution, providing clarity, or cleaning up a misunderstanding. We are using our superpower when we make agreements on how we want to engage or to make bottom lines and boundaries with others.
We can access our responsibility superpower in other arenas of our life too. Anytime we choose to step up and lean in so we can take responsibility, we are going to make an impact.
Taking responsibility is not always comfortable or appealing AND we do empower ourselves when we step up and lean into the opportunity to find a solution or take the lead in our own life process to make a change or follow through on a challenging situation.
To maintain healthy, balanced relationships, we must take responsibility for how we communicate and interact with our family, friends, and coworkers.
We can improve the health of our finances when we take responsibility for how we change our saving and spending patterns to be in control of our financial resources.
To have healthy energy levels, what can we do to take responsibility for our bottom lines and boundaries? Does our yes really mean a whole-hearted yes, or do we really want to say no?
We can prevent burnout, when we apply our responsibility superpower to prioritize time for recharge activities that come from pure heart’s desire to fill our tank with pleasure and joy.
These common blocks can become the habits that prevent us from accessing our responsibility superpower:
Doubt – not taking any step forward. Not trusting our inner GPS. Not taking action from fear of making a mistake or not looking competent will keep us in doubt.
Blame – the discernment of what is mine to take responsibility for. Placing the responsibility outside of ourselves on others. The excuses we make for not manifesting what we truly desire.
Resistance – procrastination, not prioritizing, and losing a lot of energy in feeling overwhelmed or stuck, and not moving forward with something important.
Insecurity – a lack of confidence, where we give away our power. Insecurity leads us to take responsibility for things we can’t control or that belong to another, as not ours to do. Over-giving and enabling are exhausting and disempowering.
Fear – fear of the unknown, which keeps us stuck in our comfort zone and not expanding into new horizons or going for a bigger vision for ourselves.
Repression – perception that we won’t be liked by others or seeking approval from outside ourselves. Not being open and honest in our communication. Repression hampers our self-expression.
Mistakes – Not taking responsibility for our mistakes is a missed opportunity to grow and gain wisdom. Holding back to not make a mistake takes us into repression, resistance or doubt.
