Help…I’m Feeling Stuck!!!

I’m currently going through a period of feeling stuck.  My stuck feeling is very interesting in the fact that, I am moving in the direction that I should be going….but I am finding it very hard to let go of what I should not be doing.  Either way….I’m feeling stuck.

If this is you, I know it’s tough but we will make it through.  If you feel like everything is going exactly as planned, enjoy it now but keep reading.  It is very likely that you will at some point feel stuck.  Here are a few things to remember when you’re feeling stuck. You may want to print this out or make quick notes, you may have to refer to it often when you are caught in the quick sand of life.

Accept and acknowledge – You have to accept and acknowledge where you are in order to move forward.  Feeling stuck does not feel good. It’s embarrassing to even admit because we want to always appear that we have it all together.  But the truth is, we all feel stuck at some point in our lives and understanding and accepting that reality will help you get unstuck.  What I quickly began to understand is that my feeling stuck was internal.  It was my perception….and what I love about perception is, when you change how you see things, things begin to change. You have to take responsibility for your life.

Get still – As I considered all that I am dealing with and what I truly had a desire to do, I quickly came to an understanding that my life is about to change dramatically.  It’s almost like having a baby.  The closer we get to have a baby, the heavier the contractions and the baby has to breakthrough into its designed purpose.  And during a life changing stage, we have to find time to be still and listen.  Transformation is happening, and your frustration of feeling stuck is your road to freedom.

Choose wisely – Now is the time to search yourself.  As I was sitting in my office staring at my journal, I kept hearing my computer ding me that I had new emails.  It was so annoying, but it let me know that while I am here feeling stuck…..things are still moving.  Yup, imagine that….life goes on.  And why it’s important to take this time to reflect on the true purpose of your life.  Your life is not about you, it’s about what you were created to do.  This is a critical time, and I believe your stuckness is right where you need to be.  Don’t be in a rush, choose wisely your next steps.  I know you may not like what is happening to you, but imagine what can happen through you if you choose from your core.

Now move – Ask yourself what I need to do to move my life forward.  For me, I had to let go of some of my work load.  I’m too busy, and while it makes for a great pay day – I am not happy nor am I fulfilling my purpose which is worth more than the money I make.  Live your best life TODAY!  Start affirming yourself daily or find a scripture that will encourage you, but speak life to yourself.  You will begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel….and then you will walk through.

Live life unstuck!
