Are you stuck, unable to take the right steps to make your dreams a reality?
If you feel blocked, it isn’t because you don’t have the options to chart an exciting, meaningful journey. The options are there – Yes they are, trust me!
Maybe your life has been filled with people saying things like: your stupid/ rude/ ridiculous/ old, etc. Rejection hurts, we go dumb and deaf to the real truths and believe our enemies. The good news is that you have options and are free to take them.
The first step is to pay attention to your feelings. Don’t discount them as silly or unimportant. How are your feelings showing up in your body? Write a detailed description of everything you’re feeling in your body; chronic exhaustion, headaches, lack of sleep, etc.
Know your options for the future you create, however you do it – writing daily in a journal, exercise, music, art, telling your story, they all break down the barriers between your broken heart and your options.
As you learn to understand your options, every choice you make will become another way of telling your story, on your terms. It will chart you a life as unique and authentic as your fingerprint, and onto paths you never knew were available.
