      Yes You Can - Joseph Liberti

      Introduction

      Hello Reader,

      I’m Joseph Liberti—coach, change agent, and lifelong learner—with some brief comments about how this book came to be and how to use it to your advantage

      A while ago, I began to do a self-empowerment pod cast called Yes You Can! Originally, my intent was to provide encouragement and support to my students and coaching clients in order to help them overcome obstacles and create lasting beneficial change in their lives.

      Soon the podcasts attracted listeners from around the globe. To date, they have been downloaded nearly 125,000 times. Many listeners wrote to me to say thank you and to tell me how powerfully the messages had impacted their lives.

      Within this book are transcriptions of twenty of the most popular shows, rewritten slightly for easy reading. Each lesson includes some new ways of looking at a challenge and some good coaching questions to ask yourself, questions that will help you gain clarity and insight. Also included are practices and action steps that will help you create positive outcomes.

      Browse the table of contents and choose a chapter, knowing that it will be just the right focus and message for this time. Reflect on the concepts, ask yourself the questions, and take the time to listen for answers from within you. Please use the practices. Those who have tried them report great results.

      Each lesson also comes with my heartfelt encouragement and a reminder: Who you are is authentically powerful, totally wonderful, and capable of accomplishing virtually anything. If the question is Can you? the answer is Yes you can!

      Warm regards,

      Joseph Liberti

      The A.R.T. of Self-Empowerment

      Are You Ready?

      Self-empowerment is the process of increasing your influence over yourself and your world to realize your potential for success and happiness.

      Realizing Your Potential

      Self-empowerment is an aspect of self-actualization, a term used by Abraham Maslow and other humanistic psychology theorists to describe the human desire to become everything that one is capable of becoming. According to Maslow, people have lower order needs that begin with the necessities of life—such as food, shelter, and security—that generally must be fulfilled before high order needs can be satisfied. As a person moves up Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, eventually they will reach the summit—self actualization.

      I believe, that becoming self actualized is the curriculum of our life and the ultimate purpose for our human experience. I also believe that becoming actualized is inevitable. Whether you aggressively pursue your personal growth now or do nothing at all, sooner or later you will answer the call to learn and grow. Sometimes we are so resistant to change that the choice to learn only comes when we are in crisis and are motivated by pain.

      Self-Empowerment Is a Choice

      As I became more and more awake during my life, I made the choice to make realizing my potential my most important goal. That is how and why I came to do the work that I do. But, it is just a choice.

      How about you?

      What choices are you making about you?

      How important is it right now, for you to empower yourself, and to learn and grow to become self actualized?

      And if it is at or near the top of your list, how will you do it?

      The A.R.T. Model

      There are many roads to self actualization and many tools for empowering yourself. There is something for everyone, and you will move to what you need most at this time. I developed the A.R.T. Model initially by self-testing and then by working with hundreds of clients in more than 4000 hours of coaching. It absolutely works. It is a model for learning and a method for coaching yourself or others. It is elegantly simple yet profound. It is the same method I teach to clients and to the coaches that attend the EQ At Work coach certification programs. There is more to it than I can teach you in a single lesson but the basics will help. It is important that we first talk about power.

      What Is Power?

      When I first started teaching these concepts, I told people that the method would help them liberate authentic power. People reacted negatively to the word power because they judged it as abusive, manipulative, and controlling—an undesirable quality. I now recognize that part of that reaction comes from a fear of being truly powerful.

      How do you feel about being powerful?

      What is the power we are talking about? We are powerful when:

      We are in full command of our personal resources—our physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and metaphysical intelligence.

      We are fully awake and present in each moment

      We are self-determining and create our reality

      I notice that people are most effective, balanced and fulfilled when they are peaceful, confident, joyful and in the flow—responding spontaneously to life rather than reacting impulsively.

      How about you? When are you powerful?

      How
