Blog #633: Letting Stuck Stay

Mar 28, 2024Blog Post

Maybe…
There’s an area in your life you feel STUCK.

If so…
How long will you let STUCK stay?

______

STUCKSville.

It’s an ultra-lousy place to live.

Hopeless.
Helpless.
Hapless.

The project never finished.
The habit never improved.
The goal never started.

Money keeps decreasing.
Relationships keep pressing.
Tension keeps building.

The job going nowhere.
Stress landing anywhere.
Negativity growing everywhere.

Health declining.
Happiness fading
Harmony lacking.

That’s STUCKSville.

______

Three email excerpts from the past…

#1. “I’ve been in my job for 10 years. It provides a comfortable life for my family, but I’m miserable.”

#2. “Every day I tell myself to go for a walk, but I can’t find the energy to get outside. My body starts to ache, and I don’t go.”

#3. “Three years ago, my wife left after 22 years. I was shocked. But now, I realize it was the best thing for us…I’m glad my ex had the courage to do what I couldn’t.”

Is STUCK a part of your life?

“TODAY is MOVING DAY!”

What’s Moving Day?

It’s the day we MOVE away from feelings that freeze us.
It’s the day we MOVE away from thoughts that keep us weak.
It’s the day we MOVE away from actions that sabotage our potential success.

It’s the day we decide we’re fed up with the BS crapola that’s a part of our lives…and we decide to move far, far away from it being a negative difference-making, life-altering, mind-controlling part of us.

That’s Moving Day.

So yeah…

The Movers are here.
The truck is parked outside.
It’s time to move on from being STUCK.

______

Here’s a TWO-part plan.

#1. “TODAY is MOVING DAY!”

Write the words down.

Tape them to the mirror.

Read them multiple times a day.

#2. Do ONE proactive thing DAILY about an area you’re stuck in.

I’m not asking you to walk an hour. I’m not asking you to call five people a day. I’m only asking you to do ONE thing that moves you forward and carries the potential to nudge you out of STUCKSville. You decide how big or small that ONE thing is.

BUT…

That doesn’t include thinking about it.

That doesn’t include whining about it.

That doesn’t include planning on starting tomorrow.

Let’s start building positive momentum.

______

Today is your shove out the door.

No more stalling.

No more pretending.

No more accepting

Unless, of course…

You’re not ready YET to give up all that wonderful suffering.

And if you’re not ready…

Stay where you are, don’t move…and do NOTHING.

But if you choose to stay STUCK…

Don’t whine about being STUCK.

Because that would just be…well…nonsensical.

“TODAY is MOVING DAY!”

And it’s time to move out of STUCKSville.

Ready to get your move on?

EXTRA Thoughts

STUCK?
or
UNSTUCK?

We choose which trail to walk.

Miss last week’s blog?

I write about breathing in “cool moments”…and how to see the positive when the positive is extra hard to see. Take a moment to read?

Did You See Where I Hid It?

TODAY…

I hope you see the moving van parked out front.

Thank you for walking with me today.

With gratitude for reading…
