Mindset Monday – Feeling Trapped

Mindset Monday - Life Happens Now by Stacey Natal

 

As far as mindset goes, today I want to talk about feeling TRAPPED. Is there something in your life that you’re feeling trapped about?

Maybe you have kids and you feel TRAPPED by their schedule?

TRAPPED by not having enough money to move forward,

TRAPPED by lack of time.

TRAPPED by your own feelings of not being good enough.

TRAPPED by a job that you need for the money but you know you hate being there.

Feeling trapped can feel like you’re in a cardboard box taped up all around you with no way out. You’re struggling – banging for help but no one is answering. You feel like there’s no hope – no way out.

Then miraculously you see a tiny little hole in the corner of the box. You start to relax and you can breathe and the panic starts to diminish. You get a sense of hope just from that tiny little hole.

So again I ask, what is it that is making you feel TRAPPED and what is that tiny little hole that can give you HOPE?  It could be as simple as an unexpected email or something you read in a book.

For me I’ve been getting tons of inspiration and motivation and starting to see things differently by watching the interviews in the 30 Days of Genius at CreativeLive series.

I really can’t express how great these have been.  Even today as I watched Daymond John‘s interview, I was inspired by his goal setting and visualization practice.  Going to definitely make tweaks in my own routines!

If you need to find that little glimmer of hope, inspiration, and motivation, go sign up for this series now and start catching up on the previous interviews. It won’t cost anything except for your time.

If you have been watching, which has been your favorite interview so far and what have you learned?
