Is Feeling Stuck A Choice?
Many of us, at some point in our lives, go through a period of feeling stuck and stagnated with no easily accessible options to create motion forward. We can find ourselves perpetually 'waiting' for something to happen in order for us to move. We might be waiting for a new job, a new love, retirement or more money, feeling adamant that when it arrives our lives will dramatically shift for the better.
What we can fail to realise is that 'waiting' or 'feeling stuck' is an actual state of being. The more we proclaim that we are stuck, the more we remain stuck. The energy of 'I am stuck' is taken as a command by our subconscious mind just like anything else we consistently affirm.
It's the same with waiting. The state of 'waiting' keeps what we want 'out there' in an unreachable future. As with being stuck, we are affirming that we are 'waiting' and so 'waiting' is all that can appear in our reality.
As with most things, being stuck is a choice. We can choose to 'be stuck' or we can choose to proclaim commands that create positive momentum and move us towards something great. If this is where you are, try repeating one or all of the energy-shifting commands below regularly throughout the day for the next 3 days to start to see a change.
Life is gently moving me towards my known and unknown desires.
My life is unfolding perfectly and I am excited about what is to come.
I choose to live an expanding life and embrace the unknown.
I feel only gratitude for my life and know that more is opening up for me.
To move out of a state of waiting, do the things, or even some version of the things, you desire to do right now. Don't deny yourself the value of a beautiful experience because you're waiting for the lover, the money or the job.
Don't wait for the lover before you visit the country you've always wanted to explore.
Don't wait to find the ideal friend before you go and see that show, play or musician you've always wanted to see.
Don't wait for the money before you learn a new skill. Find a free version, videos, books, scholarships or volunteer.
Don't wait for the big salary before you start saving; build the habit by saving £10 a month now.
Noticing when we are embodying our 'stuck' or 'waiting' story and changing trajectory in that moment, will see stagnation lift as new possibilities emerge. Stagnation is not your destiny, it's simply a choice.
If you take up the 3-day challenge, let me know how you get on!
With love and light
