Tool: Self-Authorise

The concept of self-authorising our lives is a very non-Western concept. Yet, it’s one skill to add into the toolbox that helps us along the way of a life without pain and suffering. By choosing to self-authorise, we let go of the nagging worries that hold us back. We free ourselves to fly as high as we wish. The only permission needed is our own. Permit yourself to be the greatest you can be.

Whether or not the critical voice comes from within you or from others, it matters only that you take a step back and ask whether you wish to believe it. The voice that says, ‘You can’t do it’ or ‘You can’t say that’, ‘You have no authority’. Rubbish. It’s your choice as to whether or not you accept restrictions in your life. A life in greater freedom lies ahead – all the barriers in the world are in your head and are illusory. Our fear is not what we don’t do, it’s the fear of what we can do when we step into our own power. So, I dare you to let go of the fear – better yet, you can say, ‘Stop. I’ve had enough, no more’. Do that and you will discover you can, and you do, have authority to say and do whatever you like – you have your own authority. Only you choose to cede your own self-authority to others, and only you can choose to take it back. Self-authorise your life and, instead of waiting for someone else to give you a mandate to speak or do, take the initiative and be confident that you will be supported if it’s for the best.

Know this: a life in greater freedom brings with it greater mountains to climb, greater oceans to sail. But by climbing the mountains of life and sailing its seas, you become a master of the art of adventure.

Two routes: two very different approaches to life. Do you choose to self-authorise your life or do you simply sit back and let others determine who you are, what you do and where you go? One is participatory, the other passive. In the first you are the driver, you are in charge of where you go; it’s a life of conscious transformation. Sit back, however, and the world around you determines your fate. It’s your choice; self-authorise or accept the dictate of others (and the critical voice within saying, ‘You can’t do that’ can be one of your inner dictators).
