What are you struggling
with right now?
What obstacle is
standing in your way?
Are you sad?
Discouraged?
Hurting?
Have you ever felt
that way?
It is likely,
you will feel that way
sometime in the
future.
Why?
Because you are human.
As a human you can
remember the past,
plan for the future,
but you can only
live in the present.
Life is up close and
personal 24/7 and
it can be hard to get
perspective.
It is time to sit down
with the
Struggle
Obstacle
Feeling
and NAME it.
Literally give it a name.
(Walter, Kim, Sticky whatever...)
If it were a creature,
what would it look like?
How tall or fat would
it be, would it be covered
with hair or bald, does it
talk your language or
simply grunt, does it
smell like anything,
You decide everything.
Now say to the fat, bald,
mumbling, ball of trauma
...or however you describe
yours,
You are Not the boss of me!
And remember,
every obstacle is also
an opportunity to pause
and reflect.
Every struggle is
an opportunity to
learn a skill or
increase strength.
Every feeling is
beneficial and
an opportunity
to build trust.
Every trauma
experience
reveals a boundary.
So, pause and
get perspective.
Ask for help.
