Stop Feeling Stuck

Feeling Stuck?

Stop Feeling Stuck.

Feeling stuck or caught is completely natural. All you have to do is look at the seasons. Winter isn't for thriving and blooming, it seems..on the surface at least. Still it can feel pretty horrible. Can feel like no progress is being made anywhere. And this life of yours is not what you expected, hoped or planned it would be.

For the most part it is not knowing how things are going to play out and all you do know is that what is happening is not pleasant. The feelings "Is this going to continue forever" fuels stuckness. So obviously seeking a way out of that is normal and natural. Not wanting to feeling stuck or caught in the same routines. Making promises to yourself and not keeping them. Feeling trapped or whatever description there might be. It amounts to certainly not feeling empowered.

First of all even though this title says Stop Feeling Stuck, it is of course not so simple as just saying that. It's as bad as saying snap out of it. How annoying is that. Mostly we do not even want to admit we are stuck or feeling the way we are feeling. Probably it has become the norm. This feeling. Almost safe. But its a cocoon kinda of safety. You want to break the cocoon but you also feel safe in it. Ruts or feeling stuck despise anything new in reality. I have found that when I really really really do not want to exercise or run, that is when I absolutely 1000% need it the most.

Change sounds attractive but probably thinking about changing is what sounds attractive. Thinking about whatever end result is what is attractive. Change itself is not really. It is unpleasant in reality. And it should be. It would not be change then. It would be continuing what you are doing with a sprinkle of more comfort.

I feel passionate about what my course has to offer because simply it allows you see what change would be like. To trial a different approach. And this approach has nothing to do with thinking. It has everything to do with action. Unfortunately we cannot think our way to a nice fire to keep ourselves warm. We must find the tinder, kindling, wood etc.. We must act.

To make ourselves strong, we need to do things that require our strength to do them. Whatever that might be. It might be getting out of bed. I don't know. But you do.

You know what they are. And everyone of them are those difficult things. Tomorrow is not the day to start. Nor the next day. But anytime now is good enough.
