Empower People This Holiday Season Without Spending a Penny

Positive Women – How to Empower People This Holiday Season Without Spending a Penny

Would you like to empower those you care about this
holiday season without Kelly Rudolphspending a penny? It is an excellent alternative to
store-bought gifts with no confidence and self-esteem-building value. Positive
women love to rock the holidays with gratitude and here’s one way to do it.

List “Your People”
Make a list of those you care about and would like to
empower this holiday season. The results of making this list can be eye-opening
and may include such things as:

  • Determining the most important people in your life
  • Acknowledging people you feel obligated to “buy” for
  • Recognizing which people inspire good thoughts when you visualize
    them and which ones don’t

    • Take Notes

    Now that you have your list of three, six or ten
    people, carry the list with you and jot down notes when you think of these two
    things:

  • What you appreciate about them – examples: honesty, business savvy,
    kind to fellow teens, funny, etc.
  • What you think they are great at – examples: study habits, making
    people feel important, keeping a positive attitude during challenges, etc.

    • Reminisce about your own life

    Recall when someone shared what they appreciated
    about you or what they said you did well. How did that make you feel? Were you
    surprised by what they said? Had others said the same thing before? Had you
    brushed it off or internalized it previously to drive your confidence and
    self-esteem to a higher level?

    Deliver the Gift

    On a blank piece of paper or card, HAND WRITE the
    list in this format:

    (Their name), you are an important person in my life,

  • I appreciate you for (insert something from your list)
  • I appreciate that you (insert something else from your list)
  • I think you’re great at (insert something from your list)
  • I think you’re great at (insert something else from your list)

    • The purpose of hand writing the list is to allow someone you care about
    to see and feel your energy. When you physically write something, you see it,
    feel it and think it at the same time. We rarely see handwriting in this age of
    technology. The person you give this gift to will feel empowered by your loving
    energy about them when they hold it and they can read it again and again to
    boost them up when they feel challenged.

    You’ve just given the gift that keeps on giving and
    established yourself as a person with a positive impact.
