A 3 - Minute Read
In recent months some of my friends have observed my interest in preppers, survivalist culture, and simple living
When I conduct seminars on personal development, I am often asked “What does referent power mean?”
One of the most effective ways of guaranteeing that you will achieve any goal is to possess the power to remove the obstacles, have them removed on your behalf, or even make them disappear. Referent power – the type of power that stems from a leader's ability to inspire and influence others – is one way of achieving this.

Here is an introduction to my series of newsletters on power and influence
To eliminate unnecessary struggle from your life, read the 3-minute article below...
——————————————————————————————————————
Power and wealth are fleeting concepts without influence as their foundation. I do not claim to know the definitive path to the art and science of power and influence. What I do know, is that there are certain principles that if read over and over and put into practice with positive intentions and ethical acts will immediately produce a shift in one’s quality of life and will enable one to experience daily life through new eyes. If asked, I can show you how do you grow your personal power?
When a person understands power and influence it may seem initially in their mind what Moses experienced when the Red Sea parted in response to his command.
Real power and influence are an “Open Sesame" to the world. `
Unless we understand how we readily respond to various forms of power influence, and why we seek to influence others (whether we realize it or not), we can never fulfill our potential in life.
The only purpose for seeking power and influence is in helping you get what you need on your own terms but from a visionary and spiritually driven perspective.
Having power and influence can also help you serve others, make the world a better place, and in an extreme situation, can guide “bad actors” to behave better.
Once you absorb the essence of power and influence you will possess the skills needed to that change the world.
When I use the word power in ordinary conversation I am usually referring to a person or group who has the ability to get what they want on their own terms. This type of power is not what we are concerned with here. As history has shown us over, and over again, those who claim or seek absolute power usually end badly or create havoc in the lives of others.
So, when I speak of influence in this series of newsletters I am concerned specifically with social influence – the ability of a person or group to positively, and proactively affect the opinions or behaviors of others. Social influence takes many forms and can be seen in conformity, socialization, peer pressure, obedience, leadership, persuasion, sales, and marketing. As needed, a master influencer can use all of these tools to shift the interaction of people, places, and things.
.….and remember, life is not a dress rehearsal!
