Feeling Stuck
Feeling Stuck?
Where do you go from here?
Often people talk about how they feel 'stuck' in a situation. You're never stuck! You may be a little frustrated, you may not have clear answers, but you're not stuck. The minute you represent the situation to yourself as being stuck, though, that's exactly how you'll feel. We must be very careful about the metaphors we allow ourselves to use. - Tony Robbins
Words mean things, and how you talk to yourself matters, so choose wisely.
Remember, life may happen, but you always get to choose!
Don’t let fear hold you back.
Often it is your fear and perspective are the only things slowing you down.
“Fear is the glue that keeps you stuck. Faith is the solvent that sets you free.” - Shannon L. Alder
Have Faith that God has great things in store for you.
There are Brighter things ahead.
You need to get out of your past patterns.
“You're not stuck. You're just committed to certain patterns of behavior because they helped you in the past. Change the formula to get a different result.” - Emily Maroutain
Good daily habits, starting with a good morning routine, are the fuel that will help you move forward.
John C. Maxwell asks… “How would you describe your life? Are you achieving what you desire? Are you accomplishing the things that are important to you? Do you consider yourself a success? How do your prospects look for the future?”
He goes on to say, “If I got up with you in the morning and went through the day with you, watching you for 24 hours, I could tell in what direction your life is headed.”
“Here is why: I believe that the secret of your success is determined by your daily agenda. If you make a few key decisions and then manage them well in your daily agenda, you will succeed. You will never change your life until you change something you do daily.”
It is what you Choose To Do that makes all the difference!
So today, why not take a look at your morning and daily habits and routines and see if they are helping or hindering you.
Is the reason you feel stuck, because you are stuck in old patterns that are not serving you today?
Remember how Albert Einstein defined insanity… “Doing the same thing
over and over again, but expecting different results”
Let’s go back to what John C. Maxwell said… “You will never change your life until you change something you do daily.”
You do get to Live The Life You Choose!
In my book “Befuddled? Live the Life You Choose!” I talk about just this thing.
There is so much more to life. I quote from Stephen Curtis Chapman's song “More To This Life.” He sings…
“Today I watched in silence as people passed me by. And I strained to see if there was something hidden in their eyes. But they all looked at me as if to say… Life just goes on.
The old familiar story, told in different ways. Make the most of your own journey from the cradle to the grave. Dream your dreams tomorrow because today. Life must go on
But there's more to this life living than dying. More than just trying to make it through the day!
You can get unstuck today.
Believe there is more to life!
But, it’s up to you!
As Ed Mylet says, “Life happens for you, not to you!”
Use your current circumstances, whether good or bad, and move forward…
Do Amazing Things!
Get out of your rut. Get unstuck and do Something New Today.
Live the Life You Choose!
