3 Tips to Live an Empowered Life

Do you ever wonder how some people seem to always get what they want? How do they have that kind of confidence? Why does it seem like the winners keep winning?

 Successful people empower themselves to get what they want in life. They build their empowerment muscle and manifest their desires. They affirm themselves with positivity and attract more positivity into their lives. 

 They choose to stand in choice. They choose to live a more empowered life. They choose to build themselves up, so they have the strength and clarity to:

• Leave a toxic job, friendship, or relationship.
• Write a book.
• Go back to school.
• Pivot into a new profession.
• Start a new business.

Just think of Bobby Brown’s song, "My Prerogative" the next time you’re doubting yourself! Empower yourself to improve your lifestyle, mindset, outlook, and pocket. 

I’m Montrece Ransom, a coach, speaker, and founder of The Empowermenteur Coaching & Consulting Group. In our one on one programs, we work with women to help them strut into the next phase of life with authenticity and confidence. I created this brand because I love helping professional women who have multiple passions to: 

• Get clear on their goals.
• Change their mindset.
• Create new revenue streams.
• Create new businesses.
• Get new promotions and jobs.
• Level up in life.
• Build new coaching and consulting practices.

 In our signature program, The S.T.R.U.T. Into Coaching Academy, our clients learn how to leverage their skills and experiences to build a thriving coaching practice in 90 days. The Academy allows them to actually start and run a money-making, impactful coaching practice.

 First, we have to help them build their own empowerment muscle to strengthen their mindset.  Here are my three tips to lead a more empowered life and get what what you deserve:

#1. Bet on your d*mn self.

 If you want to live an empowered life, you have to practice betting on yourself. Queen B said it best, "I don't like to gamble, but if there's one thing I'm willing to bet on, it's myself." She’s right.

 Betting on yourself means you trust yourself. When you can trust yourself, even if you’re scared, you’ll take calculated risks that will give you power and control over your own life.

 When I started to trust myself, I started making better decisions and got myself unstuck. I enabled myself to finally leave my federal government job and start The Empowermenteur Coaching & Consulting Group.

 Are you ready to begin trusting your own intuition? This is what it means to stand in choice.

When you stand in choice, you will be ready to move forward with confidence. Soon after, you’ll begin to see confirmation that when you bet on yourself, you always win. 

#2. Learn the art of shifting quickly. 

You’ve probably heard of the law of attraction, but have you heard of the law of polarity?

 The law of polarity says that everything in the universe has two poles. Think about the North and South poles, the negative and positive charges on a battery, or God and the devil. There are two lanes of energy exchange in life: good versus evil; and, love versus hate.

 If you want to live a more empowered life, consider which pole of energy you’re allowing to dominate your life. When you’re not feeling empowered, what is the voice within yourself telling you? Maybe it's..

• You’re not good enough.
• You’re not worthy.
• You’re afraid.

 When you begin to feel these emotions, take a minute to feel the feeling. Then, ask yourself: Is this a feeling of love? Is it a feeling of goodness? Is it a feeling of God? 

If not, you have the power to shift your inner voice. Shift it quickly.

Ask yourself, what would love say? What would my highest self say? What would God say? Certainly, love wouldn't tell you that you're not enough. That you’re unworthy.

• Love would say: I am strong. 
• Your highest self would say: I am enough; I am worthy.

Love affirms that the whole universe wants to support you. You are more than enough. 

Remember: for every positive, there is a negative. It’s up to you to choose to focus on the positive; to shift quickly and stand in choice. What we focus on, grows.

The law of polarity and the art of shifting quickly will empower you to reframe your self-limiting beliefs and change the way you think. 

Yes, it takes practice. But like most things, the more you practice the better you will become.

#3. Affirm the hell out of yourself.

Affirmations changed my life. When you’re feeling full of doubt, positive affirmations will ground you in reality. They will remind you who the f*ck you are.

I send all of my clients affirmation recordings because they work. 

As humans, we can prime our minds to believe what we tell ourselves. Whatever we hear, we believe. If we tell ourselves negative things consistently, over time we come to believe them. If we tell ourselves positive things, we believe them. Don’t let negative beliefs limit you.

Self-limiting beliefs get embedded into our subconscious. They make us think we are not capable and prevent us from taking action.

Think about it, if you continuously tell yourself that you are not enough, tired, and broken; eventually, you believe those things to be true. Your inaction will get you negative results. 

Affirmations help build our empowerment muscle by strengthening our subconscious mind. When we visualize positive outcomes, we will take positive actions. Your beliefs direct your actions, and your actions align with your results.

Always remember that anywhere that you're called or aspire to be, you belong.
