Unleashing Human Potential: Embracing Power vs. Force in Personal Development

Christalyn Warner, MS, LMFT

Introduction:

Hello there, fellow seekers of personal growth! Today, let's explore the wisdom of David Hawkins and delve into his philosophy regarding the relationship between force and power on our journey of self-discovery. Hawkins suggests that force is like attempting to fit a square peg into a round hole, which is both clumsy and counterproductive. On the other hand, power is our innate ability to accomplish things effortlessly. So, how can we tap into this power to achieve authentic growth and fulfillment? Let's find out together.

The Power-Force Paradigm:

Imagine the following scenario: force is like trying to push against a wall, which requires a lot of energy and can lead to a confrontational struggle. We've all experienced this, right? It's the feeling of wanting to control everything, demanding certainty in an inherently uncertain world. We often resort to force when we encounter something that we feel we need to fight against. I have fallen into this trap more times than I can remember.

Power is an internal force that effortlessly guides us forward. It comes from our inner strength, wisdom, and alignment with our true selves. It's similar to a river that finds its course - smooth, natural, and unforced. To tap into our power, we must release the need for control, trust in the unfolding of events, and dream into the future with a sense of curiosity.

Human Potential Unleashed:

Hawkins believes that every individual has immense potential within them, waiting to be tapped. However, unlocking this potential is not about exerting more pressure on oneself or giving in to external pressures. Rather, it's about turning inward, embarking on a journey of self-discovery, and making a commitment to our authentic selves.

As we delve deeper into our experiences, past events, and relationships, we start to see beyond the surface. We begin to comprehend how these layers influence our perceptions, and in doing so, we move closer to unlocking our inherent power. It's a process of unraveling, an inward journey that brings us face to face with our genuineness.

When we align with our true selves, we unleash a massive reservoir of inner power. This power becomes the driving force behind creativity, resilience, and a profound sense of purpose. No longer dependent on external validation or conforming to societal expectations, we become beacons of authenticity, radiating a unique and potent energy.

Conclusion:

My dear fellow travelers on the journey of personal development, let's take inspiration from David Hawkins' teachings and move away from using force. Instead, let's tap into the natural power that resides within us. By unlocking our human potential through self-discovery, making conscious choices, and aligning with our true selves, we embark on a path of authentic growth, resilience, and fulfillment.

In our pursuit of personal growth, let's consciously choose power over force. Believe me, the impact on our lives will be truly transformative. Here's to unleashing our human potential and stepping into the powerful beings we were always meant to be!
