The Advantage

Feeling scared, nervous and uncomfortable is an essential part of the transitioning process from no-one to someone of repute and influence. This feeling is a critical piece of the puzzle of transitioning, because it helps secretes some locked away creativity which then becomes the foundation of your uniqueness, offering an original version of the new you to the world—you're born again; the old limited petrified you died away and the new brilliant excellent you has emerged.

Transitions are actually filled with chaos and confusions, but with the chaos comes order and with the confusion comes clarity, so you only need to trust the processes and be patient with yourself. The stuff that is actually happening is that the old you (the structures and systems you've built up over time and running your life on), is giving way to the new you (new structures and system being installed into you), to bring optimised results.

Scientifically, it has been proven that it takes about 21 days to really begin to let go of the old habitual patterns and systemic ways of doing things and up to 90 days to properly integrate the new systems of doing things into you, to cause a new you to arise from the ashes of the old you. This is why some denominations calls for 21 days 40 days or even 100 days fasting and prayer session—they are simply helping he old you to get out of the way, while the new you emerge, helping you also to become comfortable with the your new you.

Therefore, run towards your biggest fear if reaching your full potential is your goal. And the place to begin this journey is first from your words. Words have power, so use them carefully, because your words are nothing more than your thoughts made verbal. The words coming out of your mouth shapes not only your experience, but it also directly shapes the words that comes out of the mouth of everyone around you, in essence, words are vital as they go viral. So, where your words go, your energy flows, therefore, ensure your speak the right words at all times, words designed to elevate not just the people around you, but even yourself also, as David encouraged himself in the LORD by speaking the right words to himself, thereby strengthening him to launch a counter attack against the Amalekites that came to burn his Town and kidnapped his wives and children.
