Empathy is another power you must master if you want to change your world. I’m going to teach you how to master your power in 4 steps.
Perspective – When you take a different perspective, you put aside your own feelings and reactions to see the situation through your dream clients eyes. “What do my dream clients see in their existing world?”
Non Judgemental – We are so fast to judge others and jump to conclusions based on what we see. For most people, judgement is a reflex. Just observe yourself in any situation and you will be aware of what I mean. In fact, it’s most people’s nature and it is so difficult for them to even notice that they are in fact judging others or themselves. When we are too busy judging others we are unable to be empathetic. We judge others based on what we see but the reality is we have no idea what the other person is dealing with on the inside. We only see a moment in time on the surface level but we are unable to know and understand their past and the depth of what they are feeling.
Understanding – You are better able to understand another person when we put judgement aside and enter your heart. You can tap into your own experiences to find a way to understand what your dream client is feeling or to remember a time when you felt something similar. I must warn you, be careful to not to overdo it, however. People do this in an egoic way by making the conversation or situation about themselves. You are simply opening your heart so you are able to feel their heart. When you master this power you will be able to feel what they are feeling. When you are in tune with their energy and feel what’s in their heart you are genuinely able to say “I know how you feel.” If you do not open your heart and feel their pain and suffering you will come across disingenuous when you say “I know how you feel.” Understanding another person’s feelings happens when you want to feel their feelings deeply. To help you open your energy field to the other person’s you can ask yourself “What more do I need to learn and understand about how other people are reacting to or perceiving the situation?”
Communication – Talk to your dream clients from a place of compassion instead of blame. They are already experiencing pain so the last thing they need is someone else telling them they are doing everything wrong and what they need to fix. Avoid egoic statements like “fix it” phrases such as “what you need to do is….” Instead, try reflective phrases like, “It sounds like you…” or “I hear that you….” This is difficult for most to do because when you the expert/guide/mentor/teacher have the answers and know exactly what to do and how to do it. it’s almost 2nd nature to give them the quick fix. It may help in the short term but it wont build trust and create a deep emotional relationship. You can’t force them to understand what you understand. They simply aren’t at that stage mentally and emotionally. They are a closed system and will repel any help that comes off as “it’s easy just do this”. You must meet them where they are if you want to enhance their life. Only then can you help them transform by their own evolution within themselves.
Like any of your powers I have helped you discover within, it’s through consistent practice that you will achieve mastery. As you evolve you will notice a significant change within yourself and likewise your outer world.
