You ever wish you were powerful?

I know I have dreamed of what it would be like to be rich and famous and to have others work for me and me tell them what to do. 

I'm not sure why, but somehow I bought into the idea that my life would be great if I was powerful.

I think maybe TV had painted me a picture of what a powerful and successful life is supposed to look like. I had the impression powerful people don’t have any problems and nobody would dare step on them or their ego. 

Even though I don’t have that kind of power I know I still do everything I can to brace myself against life’s struggles. I protect myself as much as possible, and head out into the world every day with all the power I can muster. Trying to believe in myself and trying to convince myself I am self-sufficient and self-made and that I am in control of things.

But, deep inside I know this isn’t true. Instead, it's a lie I tell myself to make it through the day. I like to think I'm in control of things and my instinct is to deny the idea that actually I’m quite power-less!

Listen in as I explain.
