Making Moves
Good Morning!
Let's make some moves, shall we!?
How else are you supposed to make progress? That's right, you don't. Simple as that. Whether it be regarding the anxiety, co-dependency, getting a job, going to school, you cannot move forward unless you start taking action.
If you don't take the necessary steps to move forward you aren't going to make any progress. You'll still be in the same place you are. Think of it as a plateau. You aren't moving backwards but you also aren't moving forwards either.
For a while all I was doing was complaining about where I was in my life. I was complaining about my job and my crap relationship and how my life wasn't going anywhere. I was going to my therapist week after week talking about the same thing over and over again. It wasn't until I was a couple of weeks in that she had brought it to my attention that that's all I was doing. Complaining. Complaining about my problems wasn't going to fix them. Sitting in her office for an hour once a week wasn't going to fix them. Taking action was.
I avoided taking action at first because I knew that it was going to be difficult and it was going to be scary. I wanted to avoid all the discomfort that would come with finally moving forward. I was afraid, honestly. Deep down though I knew that things couldn't stay this way. I was unhappy and I was living an unhealthy lifestyle.
Stop plateauing guys! Take action! Previously in another post I talked about taking the steps necessary to move forward and this post is pretty much the same but with more urging. I'm serious y'all! You have to start taking those steps. You have to do the work. You cannot sit around and complain about your life anymore. I know I can't! But guys, you truly have to WANT to move forward. If you don't want it then you have to accept that your life will be as it is.
I'm not willing to accept my life the way it is. I'm making moves. I'm visualizing the life I want. I'm doing the work. Therapy. Meetings. Support group. Reading. Writing. I'm making a list right now of what I want to accomplish and I'm going to look at that list every day and work on making those things happen for myself. I'm going to read my book every day and apply those lessons I'm learning to my life. I'm going to keep writing because I know that's what helps me keep perspective.
As simple as those moves are they will help push me forward. It's not going to happen overnight. I know that. You should know that. Everything takes time but little by little you will begin to notice the changes. You will begin to see the progress that you're making. It will all be worth it in the end.
