72. How to stop feeling STUCK!

Email me!:   [email protected] Instagram: @theheididawson heididawson.com Have you been feeling stuck lately? Feeling like you do the same thing day in and day out? Maybe you wish something exciting would happen in your life? Has life become so routine you wish something would happen even if it’s bad just to give you a different pace or some new drama to talk about? Not wishing bad on anyone, just wanting something to CHANGE! You’re too comfortable. You feel like a rat in a wheel. You wonder when or if life is going to get better for you. You feel stuck in a life that isn’t making you feel ALIVE OK ILL Stop! Does this sound like something you feel? Theres one thing I want you to consider Before we go any further, theres a question I want you to ponder…… Are you really stuck or is it simply the way you are perceiving your life right now. Thinking you should be further along than you are because you’re comparing yourself to other people that don’t have your unique life goals? Maybe your watching people on social media that are in the same age group as you and you think your life pales in comparison?  Are you taking this into consideration when you label yourself as stuck? Seeing someone else’s highlight reel and saying your life sucks in comparison is not being fair to yourself. Maybe someone else is looking at your life and wishing they were where you are. Have you ever watched a preview of a comedy show and it was hilarious so you decide to watch it and then you realize the only funny parts were in the preview? Sometimes that is the case for life on social media as well. Not always, but often. So, take a really hard look at where you are in life right now and cut yourself a little slack. Only you know if you are playing full out or if you’re taking the comfortable path every single day……..So then. Let’s talk about that………..this is where we have to be real with ourself. Because maybe you really are stuck and you have done nothing about changing it? Well this episode is for you! This is your wake up call. Look it’s easy to fall into comfort and try to convince ourself that you’re happy where you are and say or “Im too young and I don’t have the experience”, or “I’m too old to do anything new” How about “My brain doesn’t work like it used to” or “You just gain weight as you get older” There are thousands of statements like these but like I always say “Im not going to depress us all by continuing in that line of thought. More than likely you know the statements you say to yourself and others that in your mind excuse you from making changes, from living that wildly successful life you thought you would be living. It’s easy to get into a groove or a rut and stay there because getting out of it would cause discomfort. Well…I believe we should be doing something every week if not every day that causes us some sort of discomfort. If you are not doing anything that challenges you or causes you a little bit of discomfort…you probably have stopped growing and more than likely you do feel stuck and you aren’t sure why.
