Words are powerful
because they
affect people emotionally, intellectually, and physically. They can have a lasting impact on a person's self-esteem, confidence, and
overall well-being. How we speak to ourselves, and others can influence our
thoughts, beliefs, and actions and even shape our perception of the world.
Our words represent our beliefs, morals,
prejudices, and principles—sometimes in ways we may not mean—and can shape an
audience's perceptions of us as well as the issues about which we speak and
write. And, our failure or refusal
to speak or write certain words—intentional or not—sends similar messages.
But words are vital for our working life, our family life, our social life. It's important to have the words we need to communicate
how we feel, what we need or what we are going to do next. Words can hurt
people, they can make them feel happy, they can give a boost when it's most
needed.
International speaker Sharon
Jaynes believes that women have incredible power in
their sphere of influence with the words they speak. Words are one of the most powerful forces in the universe, and they can
be used for good or evil. When God created our world, He did so with words.
It's the energy of knowing that you
are who you are, and therefore speaking and acting from your authentic self. It doesn't matter what your work is—if you're a teacher
or a nurse or whatever; it is your presence that's the power. It's not power
over anybody else. It's just the expression of who you are.
SETTING ASSERTING BOUNDARIES:
Asserting boundaries: Use power words like "respect" and
"boundaries" when communicating your needs. “I respect myself” and “My boundaries are important” are great
affirmations to try.
Writing allows women to explore their
emotions and ideas freely and openly, whether in a diary, a blog, or on social media. It gives us time for
reflection and introspection, helping us find our unique voice and express it
to the world.
Use this power to create a positive change and let us help each other to grow wisely and gracefully.
