The way I see it, we all will define our own personal power everyday by whether our voice will be or not be heard. As situations come and go and during our interactions with people we decide even if we where to be heard would our voice even make a difference.
I have witnessed people giving up their personal needs for the betterment of the majority which could be reflected as a decision consciously made. But if we keep quite and not voice our own opinion while the majority makes decisions for us, is that considered giving up our personal power for others, or does that mean you are deliberately not speaking up from a place of personal empowerment? Or does this silence come from a place of fear?
How do you define the decision to voice or not to voice your opinion on a decision. I would like to know what you think.
