You’re 2 weeks into
the New Year, how’s it going? If you’re not cutting it, Don’t Stay Stuck. In an
age and time where many due to life’s challenges feel stuck, knowing how to
move forward can appear mystifying. It’s as if you’re being held back. Someone,
something is holding you back, preventing you from pursuing your dreams. You
feel limited and don’t know what to do or where to start.
You feel you have no
idea how to break free from the situation you find yourself in. It’s quite
scary, to be confronted by an invisible foe you cannot seem to tackle or
get to grips with. Even though your current situation may appear hopeless to
you, there’s much you can do about it. Don’t stay stuck, where you are, keep
growing. The trick is to make a decision to develop better habits, to have
better relationships and create a better life.
Always remember, you
are the captain of your ship and it’s your responsibility to chart your course
through all that life throws at you. Here are a few suggestions to get you
started.
Differentiate between
feelings and facts
You feel as if you’re
stuck in life. Therefore, you conclude that you cannot move on. Sometimes,
however, your emotions might not be telling the (entire) truth. The inability
to get unstuck may feel very real, but in the end, it’s just a feeling.
Feelings are created from the stories you tell yourself in your mind and these
very feelings create your perception of the situation.
For this reason, it’s
important to remind yourself that feelings are not facts. They’re just an
aspect of what you’re thinking. Try to look at your situation more objectively.
Emotional responses are a reaction to your feelings that can cloud your
perception of reality. Feeling stuck in life could be a response to exaggerated
expectations or mere fantasies.
Stop making excuses
Excuses keep us from moving forward in life. Do not allow excuses to
keep you where you say you don’t want to be. Stop trying to rationalise why you
can’t get on with your life. Don’t focus on all the different reasons that keep
you stuck. Shift your attention to what needs to be done to effect positive
change. Believe you can do it, visualise doing it and then do it. Your
attention goes where energy flows. Liberate your mind then your life will
follow.
Be grateful for what
you have
You may feel as if
you’re not moving forward when you think of all the things you’re yet to
accomplish in life. As a result, you get frustrated about your situation and
feel as if you're stuck. Being grateful for what you already have can help ease
the feeling of being stuck. By the thought of gratitude alone, your body
produces two powerful chemicals, dopamine and oxytocin. These can help you
rediscover what is beautiful about your life. Instead of focusing on what you
don’t have, start focusing and being grateful for all you do have. Count your
blessings and be open to receive even more.
Let go
The things that keep
you stuck most often lie in the past. If you want to get your act together,
letting go of your thoughts, feelings and emotions of the past is a great place
to start. It doesn’t matter that your parents weren’t loving, or that your spouse
cheated on you. Stand back, let go of the sadness surrounding it and observe
the thoughts of your past for what they were, an episode of your life which you
survived. Make time to celebrate your progress, understand that you are an
overcomer and your best is yet to come.
