It's Just A Stretch of the Road
|
I'm running into a lot of women lately who are feeling like they're in a rut. They have come to a point in their lives where they are finding themselves lacking clarity and a sense of direction. As women, they are expected to carry on but life feels different for some reason. It's not necessarily a good different but it's not a bad different either. They just simply feel compelled towards change.
The problem is, they can't quite label what that change might look like.
If this is you, you are not alone.
Suddenly (or gradually), you feel challenged to do or be something more than who you are in your current life. You may be wondering what is next or you're simply searching for more meaning.
This inner turmoil feels like you're trudging through the mud with no real destination and no clear path. You can't quite put your finger on exactly what and why you are feeling the way you do but you know there is something shifting within you.
This shift can feel downright uncomfortable. Really, really uncomfortable. But remember this, in the words of author, Dr. Tom Barrett, "It's just a stretch of the road."
It's difficult when we are smack in the middle of a transition, especially one we can't quite identify, and it's easy to forget that we won't be sitting in this dark space forever. Try to remember that what you place your focus on will determine how long you stay in the dark. We can focus on resisting the shift and force ourselves to stay safe on the "way it's always been" path , or surrender, trusting in the doors that will most definitely open before us.
A few tips that may help:
- Keep a journal. Date and record your thoughts, your fears and even your dreams when you wake up in the morning. Be aware of any intuitive moments when you seem to be attracted or guided towards a specific direction.
- Be open and willing to accept that your possibilities are endless and that you are capable of creating new realities in your life in ways you haven't even dared yourself to imagine.
- Communicate your thoughts to a trusted friend, spouse, partner, counselor or life coach. When you reveal your fears, they become smaller and the extra support can make this space, however vast it might be, easier to endure. Be willing to seek wise counsel if you need it when you are ready to explore a new way of thinking, being or doing.
- Be patient. Trust that when the time is right, you'll figure it all out.
Lastly, focus on knowing that there is beauty in the darkness, because without it, we will never truly know the light.
You really are that powerful.
