I'm reading Steve Pavlina's book again, and I think I'm not particularly well aligned with Truth, Love or Power as much as I could be.. In truth, I've been discovering recently that I've got quite a lot of inaccuracies, and negative limiting beliefs to work through. In love, I think I have the capacity, but I'm not always present, and so often disconnected. I'm pretty good with power but i think I'm a bit out of touch with my desires. I don't feel bad about this either, it's like I'm starting to see lots of potential for improvement, and I'm excited about this. |

I'm incredibly aligned with truth, lightyears away from love, and definitely searching for power. It's incredibly difficult for me to delude myself, which is awesome, because it helps with the power thing. Not so much with the love thing. /<3 |

There are many aspects to truth, power and love. For instance, in one of the books I'm reading, it breaks power down into physical, moral, mental and spiritual. Seems like truth and love could also be broken down. You can be strong in some aspects of each one and weak in other areas. Thanks for the thread because I'm going to look into it from that angle. I'll add more when I've had time to think about it. |

I've tried certain strategies to better align myself, like benjamin franklins virtues chart but that was more about avoiding. | |

I am most aligned with the Truth because both power and love exist in it. Truth always show a right way to communicate with the others and also give strength to talk to a person eye to eye. It gives a power to face anything. Automatically love would come in front of you.

Just now starting to read the book. I must say, I have problems with power, but that might more be about power abuse and power over. Once I've read the book I'll probably have a better understanding of what he exactly means by it, and I'll know how much I'm aligned with it. Love: I'm aligned with love I'd say. I love myself. I love the people around me. I love not loving every person in a personal way, but still feeling acceptance and universal love for the possibility that they are. Truth... It would depend who you'd ask However although I have no problem acknowledging that how I see reality is not how most people experience reality, that definition of reality leads most people to believe me naive and not truthful about reality. I'll need to learn the definition that Steve uses to say if I'm aligned with his definition of truth or not |

I'm very much aligned with Truth (according to what I'm drawn to and compelled to point out/live by), also aligned with Love, and struggle with Power.
