Being in control of your life is more than simply feeling in control. After all, while you may believe you are consciously making controlled decisions, your actions may actually be sabotaging your life. To harness your personal power is to become more assertive, to act in your own best interests while maintaining a global awareness of the world in which you live. By harnessing your personal power, you will become healthily responsible for your own emotions, thoughts and actions, and stop givin.
