i personally do not believe the attitude of proving things is beneficial to myself or my clients. proving tends to initiate a attitude of force. here power struggles are created, leading to enhanced separation between myself and my surroundings. (entering into a dualistic approach) this
makes certain resources more difficult to access
if instead of proving things, you can approach with the attitude of acknowledgement or noticing, the power struggle is bypassed and i can keep myself in harmony with the surroundings. (maintain a monistic approach) this allows greater access to everything
the attitude of what you are right now is okay, leads to greater presence and substantial power can be derived from the situation.
i have been exploring linguistical shifts like the one cited above and have noticed a significant enhancement of my life and surroundings when playing within the realm of power.
good book to read is by david hawkins "power verse force"
