If you also feel like you're not making headway on your goal, and you feel stuck, chances are your actions (and non-actions) are arguing for where you are or for your past, not what you really truly desire.   It totally makes sense. Your experience is grounded in the past and what you've done. Plus, what is familiar is safe. It keeps you surviving.   The thing is you want to thrive. That frustration you feel at falling into old patterns and being stuck, despite being committed to wanting to create a new career and life for yourself, is your future self talking. She knows you're capable of so much more.   Here's the thing -- All the reasons to stay small and in what's familiar are made up.  They're stories in your mind, rooted in fear, which loves to catastrophize that finishing the paper and the degree, upleveling your career, finishing the novel, getting your first speaking gig will be the death of you and everything you've known and built.   They feel real and valid, but they're just stories -- thoughts and beliefs that you've picked up or built along the way. This is great news because it means that the opposite of these stories is just as equally true and possible.  It's just as possible that you finish the paper on time and do well, complete the degree with relative ease, land the position you've been eyeing, shift to a dream career, finish the novel and land an agent, get your first speaking gig.   I know it's easier to believe the ones where we fail because our brains have a negativity bias. That's why you need to consciously choose the other stories and believe they're just as possible. So why not choose to believe your success is inevitable, if you're believing stories anyway? It's a much better, more expansive story than the one that has you failing. Shifting away from unhelpful stories and developing a more supportive set of self-beliefs is part of the work you do when we work together. Book a consult call and let's change today's story for tomorrow's success. https://buff.ly/45ZxzJd #changeyourthinking #confidence #getunstuck #highachievingwomen #impostersyndrome
