Description
Have you ever left a nerve-racking challenge and immediately wished for a do-over? Maybe after a job interview, a performance, or a difficult conversation? The very moments that require us to be genuine and commanding can instead cause us to feel phony and powerless. Too often we approach our live's the biggest hurdles with dread, execute them with anxiety, and leave them with regret. But by accessing our personal power, we can achieve presence: When we stop worrying about the impression we're making on others and instead adjust the impression we've been making on ourselves.
