What to do when you're feeling stuck

Do you sometimes wonder if there’s somewhere better you can be? Are you feeling like you need a change, but you can't because of financial obligations, guilt or loyalty?
 
Read on, because I’m going to share with you why you are stuck and what you can do to get unstuck.
 
But first, I want to tell you about Richard.
Richard came to see me because of anger issues. He was an qualified auditor, managing staff in a large company. He was struggling to get his work done, because he was constantly being interrupted. The problem was that he was required to be there for his staff, so he couldn’t say no them.

When he finally came to see me, he was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. He was drinking excessively, and he was regularly fighting with his wife.
Although he was really good at his job, he secretly had been writing a children’s book. Something he had always wanted to do. He believed there was no money in writing books, and he was an amateur author.
Within 8 weeks, he cleared the expectation his father had of him to become an accountant, and realized that his dream of being an author was a true calling that lit him up inside.

Within months he quit his job, and he currently runs a successful book store. He has written 5 more books, and is a leading publishing house for other aspiring authors. He no longer drinks, and his relationship is solid and happy.

I’m sharing this with you, because we all know deep down what we truly want. When we are expected by society, and even ourselves, to do something that drains us, it takes its toll.
​
We each have a zone of genius and your zone of excellence.

• Your zone of genius is the thing you are really good at, and it keeps food on the table, but it sucks the life out of you.
• Your zone of excellence is the thing that you excel in and that lights you up. When you work in the zone of excellence, you become unstoppable.

 
The cause of feeling stuck

When you feel stuck it’s because you are stagnating in life. You feel like there must be something more, and you have an urge to grow and expand. This is natural for all life on earth.
However, when you feel that there are constraints that are holding you back, it’s because you have limiting beliefs around change.
You may feel you’re not good enough, not trained enough, there's no money in it, etc.

Overcome feeling stuck

What is keeping you stuck is not your ability, nor your resources, it’s your beliefs you have about them. When you change your beliefs, the opportunities become plentiful. 
To open yourself up to new possibilities, there are 2 things you need to do.

1. You simply need to look around you, to see that people are making money doing what you love. Artists are charging thousands for a painting, people are making money traveling the world in an RV. Some people are doing what you love and you are more qualified than them, and they are still making money.

2. Rather than push through and stick with the tried and tested, allow yourself to go to bed at night and spend 5 minutes wondering how life would be if you were doing that thing you love.

That’s it.
That’s all you need to do. Just lie in bed, and say to yourself, “I wonder how it would feel if …”
And take those thoughts with you into dreamland.
 
The cost of not doing what you love, or what you are called to do is high. It negatively impacts on everyone around you: your company, your clients, your relationships and your health.
