"POWER" - I have been encountering this word for the last 3 days. Read about it in the blogs, read about a topic in Law of Success and experiencing "Applied Knowledge Is Power, But Without Knowledge I'm Powerless" - WOW!
Let me share my experience here. I requested from the client for a schedule for construction of a pipeline for a project that I was assigned, last Friday. But the reply on Monday was I am supposed to come up with the schedule for him. Fine, this is usual. The only thing is I do not have clear knowledge what is the construction tasks involved for the construction. I felt quite helpless, like a kid left behind by parents in a busy shopping center. I understand truly "No knowledge = No Power".
Luckily I also have the knowledge from One Minute Millionaire, "Knock And It Shall Be Open" (or Ask And It Shall Be Given)and I applied it by seeking help from my very experienced colleague on how the pipes are to be constructed. Today, I have some knowledge of the pipe construction and was able to prepare a preliminary schedule for discussion with my manager. Great! I have some knowledge and applied it to come out with a schedue! AHA!
I felt that my power have grown a little and I am able to contribute. Although I need to refine and change some of the elements in the schedule, I am contented today at the end of the work.
I am sure with experience, my power will grow and increase, in proportion with my ability and contribution!
What knowledge about yourself have you learnt recently to empower yourself?
