Do you ever find yourself on a roll, where you’re picking up momentum with a project, in your business or in your life and all of a sudden everything comes to a screeching halt because you get stuck in one of those “What if… scenarios” that have doom and gloom written all over them?
It’s a trick of your subconscious mind who’s putting the breaks on when it feels threatened that you’ve stepped a little too far out of your comfortzone.
When we’re about to make big changes in our lives our subconscious gets activated and it’s trying to stop us from moving forward. Not out of ill intention but because it’s only function is to keep us safe and alive.
The moment you step out of your status quo this trigger gets activated.
And one of the many ways it can present itself is by falling into a negative spin cycle of fear, doubt and worry that can be paralyzing.
When that happens the best thing to get back on track is to hold the truth in front of you.
Examine, what is true at this very moment about the thoughts you’re thinking or the situation you’re dealing with.
Yes, that can be a little confronting but it’s well worth it.
Once you’ve uncovered the truth you might find that you’ve created a story around a particular situation, a story that has served you very well in the past but if you look at it now, you know that it’s no longer congruent with where you’re going.
And here is the beautiful thing…
You can decide, just like that to drop the old story and start rewriting a new one, one of your choosing one that is in complete alignment with where you are going.
My mentor says
If I were to put a hot stone in your hand you wouldn’t hold on to it, would you because it’d burn your palm. So why would you hold on to an old story that is no longer serving you? Drop it!
Just like that.
Drop it!
It’s a simple decision.
Let it go and write a new story, one that is serving you on the path that you’re on.
Yes, you can do this!
I believe in you.
