THE POWER OF IMAGIN ‘ ACTION ’

Stories are our way of making sense of things . We understand the world around us — people , things , events , and even ourselves — through them .

We do this in various ways ; we speak , we post and tag , we journal , and we even video . Stories are a communication tool . They carry meaning , emotion , faith , facts , impressions , motivation , and many other things — depending on the type of story we want to tell .
But one of the most important stories you ’ ll ever hear is the one you tell yourself .
It ’ s the story of who you are , why things are the way they are , where you ’ ve come from , and where you ’ re going .
We repeat our story to ourselves almost every day . It influences so
much of what we are . This story therefore becomes more than just a tale . It ’ s a powerful weapon that can shape your life .
How do you then use this power to your advantage ?
By choosing how your own story goes . After all , something so powerful cannot be left to chance or the preconceptions we have about ourselves . If you want to be successful , you have to see yourself succeeding . Why should
you be limited by failure ? I doubt that the world ’ s best athletes go into a competition secondguessing themselves .
They tell themselves that they are the best , they tell themselves that they are champions , and they recount their story of success well before they have crossed the finishing line or have the medal around their necks .
What about you ? What story have you been telling yourself ?
If it has been one that is contrary to your dream , the Day of Power is for you ! Whether your story focuses on your health , family , finances , or love life , this powerful meeting is your opportunity to turn the page and determine how the rest of your story will unfold .

The £ 150,000 debt that almost ruined us

It seemed impossible for us to pay off a debt of
£ 150,000 ! We felt powerless to change things . It was a meeting like the Day of Power that showed us that we were not at a dead end and that we could still turn things around .
That empowered us not to give up . Today , we are not only free from debt , but we also own a business and properties abroad ! Now , we are prospering and we are free !
