What got me “unstuck”
This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from someone who wishes to remain anonymous.
Hi David,
I have a goal that Iโm excited about. I can see it in my mind, but when I begin to take action, or even think about taking action, I go into doubt. What is this and how can I push past this limiting belief?
THANKS!!
Great question!
Often when we want to achieve a goal, we focus on the wrong thing.
We focus on the โhowโ โ โHow am I going to do it?โ โ instead of doing the work required to achieve the actual thing.
We look for all the reasons why we canโt do it. We ask questions that donโt help us or move us forward. Or we become focused on what weโre going to โget.โ
What we donโt realize is that part of what is controlling our thinking is the idea that, โI canโt do it.โ
This belief has complete dominance over our thinking. Itโs our subconscious mindโs way of keeping us stuck, asking questions that arenโt helpful, and never reaching the goal.
The idea itself causes us to focus on the wrong things.
It makes us psychologically look for an answer that doesnโt exist. The idea โI canโt do itโ holds us back in paralysis modeโฆwhere we ask questions that actually keep us stuck (questions such as, โHow do I do it?โ)
Years ago when I got sucked through a dam, I was hanging from a tree branch, reflecting on my life.
In that moment, I realized Iโd been doing exactly that โ I had been letting the idea of โI canโt do itโ control my thinking and my life. It ruled nearly everything I did (and didnโt do).
At that point, I didnโt even want much. I just wanted to make enough money to pay my bills and not live in a bad neighborhood.
But part of me believed I couldnโt do any of that. Part of me believed I couldnโt succeed or reach my goal.
I kept looking for an answer that didnโt exist. I thought I needed โsomething elseโ in order to make more moneyโฆwhen really, I needed to change my belief about myself.
Begin thinking about how you CANโฆmake a list…be creativeโฆand open yourself to see opportunities that are around you right now!
