We all have problems.
Whether it’s not having enough money, being stuck in a job that you hate, or dealing with a moody business partner..our “problems” make us feel stuck.
These problems prevent us from moving forward toward our goals because they stop us from taking action. We think our problems are the obstacles to our progress.
What if I told you that your problems are not the true obstacles holding you back?
Our so-called problems, as miserable or frustrated they can make us feel, keep us in our comfort zones. Our problems can quickly turn into excuses which leads to inaction to do anything about it. Our problems trick us into believing that they are legitimate reasons to be complacent and wait until the time is right to do anything about it.
However, there is no right time because we all know that life has a surplus of problems to hand us at any given moment that will put our goals on pause…AGAIN.
The reality is:
Your “problems” are not the problem; how you react to them is the real problem.
Who you choose to be when encountering challenges is what makes the difference between stagnation and growth.
What would happen if you decided to see obstacles as opportunities?
How would life be different if you shifted your perspective from wanting your situation to change to taking initiative to being the one to change yourself first?
Your thoughts have a HUGE impact on your actions.
So the next time you feel stuck because of your “problems”, ask yourself this:
What do I need to change in myself for this problem to no longer be a problem?
