Since the beginning of time, men have always sought for power, an ability to make other men do things with or without their will power. To induce submission and perhaps loyalty, to bend others to their will. Kings and emperors in ancient times lived in power, a dynasty of strong people. This power was the very fuel that ignited their dominance. The strong preyed on the weak, who wouldn’t wish to be the former. The struggle for power has pushed men into condemnation, its pursuit has been characterized with murder, lies, cowardice and deception. Power has been the line that divides the society, the origin of class and hierarchy. Whoever possessed power was feared or respected and in rare cases, they had both.

It is important to pinpoint a fact, from whatever any angle your view emanates from, all would agree that all fingers are not the same, some are short while others are long. This is the same with humans and humanity as a whole. Some possessed or were blessed more than others. Some were born with a deformity, however humanity has put us all in the same world and has interconnected us with a fabric of similarities so that no matter how powerful or strong you are, at the tail end you were human liable to death, sickness, thirst and starvation.

Power is said to be like alcohol, or a drug of some sort so that it changes people. Men who have been used to power react differently as opposed to men who were recently introduced to power. Like a slave who became king, and a king who came from a long line of kings (dynasty), there is always a visible difference. Naturally, all men are greedy, power is the blood that runs through the veins of this greediness. A man who was just introduced into power tends to be, for a lack of a better word mad or drunk. He tends to show qualities and behaviors that even he himself did not know he had inside him. An illustration would suffice, therefore picture this scenario.

In a company or a household, MR A used to be gatekeeper, while MR B was the owner of the estate, MR B displayed pride, bending MR A to his will with a confident minded willpower that MR A would not be able to do otherwise even if he wanted to. MR A possessed a sort of wittiness and envied MR B for the power he possessed, all of a sudden, either by the work of providence or metaphysics, MR A becomes the new estate owner, another side of his personality would be born, he has acquired the silk from India. For the first few weeks, MR A would display cockiness at an extreme capacity while exhibiting his newfound power.

The principle of Dominance
Dominance has been in existence along with humanity since Cain killed Abel, stronger cities conquered weaker ones and annexed them while enforcing taxes and coercing their women and children into slavery. Anyone who toples or conquers a strong principality replaced it. Men ignorantly sought power, without a proper understanding of how dominance works. It is one thing to be powerful and it is another thing to remain in power so that if you kill Goliath, you become the new Goliath. You need to understand this principle if you want to understand how power and dominance works.

I am from a country called Nigeria, during my National youth service at the Keffi orientation camp Nasarawa state, i understood how shallow men can be while searching for power, like a slave that became king, they lacked a knowledge of the principle of dominance. My experience there showed me one thing, men are shallow, myopic and stupid if i was to add. The quest to dominate one another pushed them into a stupendous cycle that projected their ignorance at the highest height. The principle of dominance is the territory no one shows you on your quest for power.

Conclusion
Power and dominance goes hand in hand, like the two sides of a coin, one can not exist without the other. Dominance is the after product or the result of expressing or exhibiting power, not just an expression but a successful expression of power. One must possesse the ability to be champion and to stay the champion.
