Sharp left Turn

This is my favourite question to use in my coaching sessions at the moment. ITS POWERFUL and you’ll understand why if you answer the questions for yourself at the end of this episode.

Too many people give in and give up on themselves too early. They pull the emergency break early on in their change. When things don’t work out the first time or when it’s not as easy as they thought it might be, they pull the brake. This stop.start… stop.start… makes it very hard to reach the top enough to get momentum to keep going. This is a reminder for you this week… don’t get off the ROLLERCOASTER.

When do you call enough is enough?

Are we very good at it as humans, do you think? Are you?

…To draw a line in the sand and say ‘ enough?’

I know I wasn’t ever very good at it.

Big transformation change can only happen in our lives one of two ways - we can get so uncomfortable within ourselves and our surroundings, we call enough … or we shift consciousness, we become conscious of what was previously hidden.

So much research tells us that the uncomfortability factor can take decades because our human ability to think- analyse, explain and rationalise is also the very reason we hesitate to put a stop sign up in front of ourselves and hold it firm.

If you’re a good person, compassionate, kind person - its even harder. You’re not only rationalising, analysing and thinking through your own considerations, you’re doing it on behalf of others as well.

Anyone for their hand up there?

So, when where’s your line for enough?

It takes courage to step forward into your sharp left turn. How do I know? I’ve done it.

Have you ever noticed that there’s a permanent narrator in your head… and that it has an opinion on e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g? Is it you?

Grab a piece of paper and a pen for this one. This one is practical and needs your active involvement so make sure you’re not driving 😉. Give yourself full permission to sit with this and finally reinvent that argument, frustration, confusion, stuckness or disconnection you’re having with another person. If you’ve realised no matter how much youve thought about it or talked about it, the issue is still there- do this process. You will see it all so differently. Do it and then come and tell me what you’ve discovered for yourself. I’d love to hear from you.

This episode is all about your unconsciousness mind and the role it plays in your life. So much of what we experience and how we process those experiences bypasses our consciousness and goes into our unconscious mind which means we haven’t had a chance to dissect it, question it or challenge it. We haven’t had a chance to decide if it’s a truth for us.

Have you ever said to somebody,“ I just don’t know where to start.” Only to have them say, “Why don’t you start at the beginning.” On the surface this seems so simple, so natural, so easy, so obvious… but in reality “, and at the same time, it can feel so hard, so heavy, so confusing, so overwhelming, so complicated.

That’s what this episode is that it’s about; taking you back to the very beginning to find the one key that you need that unlocks it all. If you can really understand this and if you can practice this and if you can see how it shifts and shapes things in your life ( the way you live in your world, the decisions you make, the responses you have)…if you can really understand this piece, everything else becomes easier.

I believe you when you say that you’re committed to the changes you want to make in your life. I believe you. I also believe you when you tell me it feels like you get to a certain point and you can’t keep keeping them. Here’s why….

How does the word ‘responsibility’ feel to you? Does it make you sit taller or shrink back in your seat? This weeks episode is a little different, no notes, no outline- just a little something that was bubbling away in me this morning.
