Have you ever felt like you can’t seem to catch a break?
I mean, you FINALLY feel like things are starting to look up. You’ve made headway on important projects, start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and are really excited about the possibilities…
And then, SMACK!
Your work ethic gets called into question by someone intentionally making mountains out of molehills.
Your car breaks down right when your start to get a handle on your finances, creating additional expenses you didn’t budget for.
Or maybe the employee/contractor/trainer you hired to do some work couldn’t deliver on the quality he promised, setting you back thousands and at square one.
Fill in the blank with whatever situation might be going on in your life and I am sure we ALL can relate in someway.
Bottom line: the situation has you feeling like you need to get out the game INDEFINITELY.
But it doesn’t HAVE to be.
What you feel is holding you back may actually be challenging you to move FORWARD!
Sometimes the blessings are smack dab in the middle of the challenges.
Here are 3 things I try to do to step back into my power when it seems like life may be getting the best of me:
1. I Remember My Purpose
When I start feeling like my current situation is clouding my thoughts, judgment or motivation, I go back to basics to remember why what I am trying to do is important.
When your purpose is bigger than the challenges you face, stepping back into your power becomes second nature.
2. I Remember The Plan
I don’t think there is a person on the planet that hasn’t dealt with setbacks.
That’s Life!
It becomes easy to fall back when you have no idea what your next step is. I see it happen to the best clients. When you have a plan, stepping back into your power can be feel empowering.
3. I Keep Moving Forward
There’s nothing worse than staying stuck and stalled in your feelings & thoughts. It can consume you! You cant change what happened. What you can change is your reaction.
Some weeks won’t go exactly how you’ve plan – that’s unavoidable. The goal is to figure out the lessons, reaffirm the plan and keep moving forward.
Things WILL work in your favor. But you have to stay in the game to truly manifest that power!
To your happiness & deserving success,
