It's the appearance of power.  For example someone might have a relatively simple position in government but appear to have lots of power over a particular thing.  Or an "old boy" in your local community may not even hold office but will appear to be able to influence current elected officials.  They may actually be able to do it, but we don't know for sure so it's only the appearance of power.

Politics and power is a group of elected, or non-elected people in high positions of government mostly doing their own will, and not the will of the majority of those who elected them. This is because of apathy, like here in America. In cases of dictatorships, monarchies, etc., it is a similar situation, they do as they see fit.

To be in a position of authority automatically warrants a certain degree of respect from your constituents and the general public.  They see that because you are in this position you have devoted time and resources to get to this position.  \n\nAlso, respect is gained from your constituents and the general public by treating them with respect.  If you actively listen to the public's and employee's concerns, they will have a greater degree of respect for you because you are making them feel important.

Depending on your sign convention, power can be negative, but it's no longer power being produced, but power being consumed, instead. Or vice versa, again depending on your sign convention (ie in thermodynamics, positive power is power being produced, but in circuits, positive power is power being consumed).

No one has power solely by their own hand.God allows some to have power but in an earth sense some although are confidants of the dark one and achieve power through wasting their years away pondering on how to become more powerful.This also is true with the rich they are never content with what they have they must always maintain a step ahead of what was once thought to be suitable in their gain.The fact is power is only obtain by to ways on this earth God or satan.I desire neither because as one answered there is great responsiblity attached to it.

Just a guess, but it may mean that you wish you were more powerful in your life. It may be that you sometimes feel that there are things you wish you had more control over. Are you going through any stressful times right now? Might also mean that you might be feeling a little stressed.

I feel most powerful when I'm putting my kids to sleep at night. I guess that's not your typical villain power-hungry version. But when I tuck those little people in at night. I feel, at the same time, like we have the "power" to do anything in our lives (I can help them achieve their dreams) AND we made it through one more messy, loud, yes-you-will-clean-your-room-or-you-will-spend-the-rest-of-your-life-in-there day.

These aren't real dictionary definitions, just my interpretations of how I think people use the words.  I hope it helps a little.\n\nStrong usually refers to physical body strength, like what you can do with your muscles.  It has other meanings, like a person can be mentally strong or something can have a strong smell, but that's usually how it's used.\n\nPower is a more general term. If you use it like 'strong' it usually refers to focused strength or energy.  It's like using strength to do something.  In sports for example, a baseball player would be strong if he has good healthy muscles, but the strength he uses when he swings the bat is better called 'power.'  Howeverm power is more often used to just mean general influence.  A powerful person is someone with a lot of authority or respect.\n\nStrength and power are more offensive, and toughness is more defensive.  In other words, how strong and powerful you are has to do with what you can do outwardly to make things happen, but how tough you are has to do with what you can put up with inwardly if something is happening to you.  If someone is tough, it would be really hard to hurt him or make him cry or something.

Because authority means power and people more powerful than you are naturally intimidating. Plus you can't do anything about them because they think they're better than you and often they can punish you.
