What is inner power and how to separate it from self-confidence?
There’s a difference between self-confidence & inner power, and in this post, I want to talk more about them both – because they both need each other. And you need both of them (and your self-love and inner safety) to start directing your life toward a life you deeply desire to live. One where day by day you have more freedom to be authentically and lovingly you.
You have both self-confidence and inner power within you. And that means you can improve and increase them both – if you are ready to do the self-healing work.
What is self-confidence made of?
While self-esteem is how you value yourself and all about your self-worth, self-confidence is about believing in yourself, your capabilities, and your abilities. Self-confidence is essential for everyone and is linked to a happy and fulfilling life.
I love how Brittany Packnett Cunningham talks about confidence in her TED talk. She says
“Confidence is the necessary spark before everything that follows. Confidence is the difference between being inspired and actually getting started.”
It is massively affected by your beliefs, your childhood and your life – it is built upon taking actions, being okay with uncertainty, and the unknown where you might step after the new step you took.

WHAT IS INNER POWER?
Your inner power / power within is a state of being. It is more profound than self-confidence and open to interpretation of what it truly is. It is built upon many things: positive emotions, self-love, self-worth, inner safety, self-confidence, a wide range of adaptive skills, willpower, optimistic & loving personality. It is about taking full responsibility for your life, being connected with your intuition, and expressing yourself from the heart.
It is the power behind being consciously, lovingly & confidently YOU.
It is the understanding that you are the creator who CREATES your life and the guiding force when you create your life from your heart and soul. It is the connection between you and your fullest potential.
