Sometimes there comes a point where you’ve just got to make a change. When the thing you are doing, the job you are working or the place you are living just isn’t working for you any longer.
It would seem that if you want to make a change that you would simply decide to do it and then do it. But it’s not always that easy, is it? Even if you are so miserable and want something so bad, you can still get “stuck in the mud”. Why is that??? There are a number of reasons.. It feels too big. You are overwhelmed and don’t know where to start. Or You’ve been doing the thing so long, it’s part of you now. Or You don’t feel like you have the right support system around you. Whatever the reason, the key is understanding that it’s all about momentum. You’ve been building/running on momentum up to this point, now you have to start building momentum in the direction of the change you want to make. What does that look like? It looks like taking 1 tiny step at a time. Even if you think it’s too little to make any significant change. The fact is that it might not on its own, but the point is to GET STARTED. Do the 1 tiny step over and over until you don’t even have to think about it anymore. Then take another tiny step….then another…. All these tiny steps create momentum, propelling you towards the change you want. What is 1 tiny step you can make today? Maybe it is to reach out for support to get you started. Studies show you are more likely to create change with support from a life coach. Is it right for you? Why not find out? What is it costing you to not take action right now? |
