You may feel more confident about asserting yourself, which could make it easier to persuade others today. Becoming in touch with your personal sources of power may be a way for you to feel effective and empowering. You might try to reflect upon the strengths you possess, which could help you use your influence in a positive and supportive way. Perhaps you can ask yourself what assets you have that others admire in you, since it can sometimes be difficult to recognize what our own strengths are. Should you find this difficult, you might first wish to think about the things in which you are weak, and what you have done to overcome those challenges, for these triumphs are your strengths. Uncovering the gifts that you have, you may find, can give you greater confidence and increase the feelings of self-worth that are required to positively impact others.

Once we understand our strengths, we are able to affect positive and lasting changes in our lives and in the lives of those around us. For some of us, it can be difficult to see the talents that we have -- our powers may be invisible to us at first. Consciously examining our talents, whether from an external perspective or in light of what we see as our limitations, brings our strengths to the fore and helps us to gain confidence in what we are able to achieve. By knowing your strengths today, you will inspire, encourage, and influence others through your strong sense of self.
