A Wolf in Sheeps Clothing
There are days when you just don’t feel like doing anything. When suggestions that would normally have you jumping for joy don’t even amuse you. Hey, why fight it. This feeling is quite common. It occurs to many at one point or another in their lives. What can become an issue, is when it doesn’t go away.
When this feeling is allowed to rule the day, action has to be taken to put it in its place. Take a look at what it really is. It comes to you, presenting its self as a harmless part of life. Don’t succumb to the enticement. It is there to rob you blind. It will steal all the joy, intention, and activity from you. It will suck you dry. Some call it depression. Regardless of the name, it must be rid from your dwelling place.
My coaching clients and I have found the resiliency trait of courage to be instrumental in times like this. Courage is like an onion, it has many layers. As the layers are peeled back, you get to the center and you will find desire. The desire to improve your current disposition. This is what helps you take the first step towards freedom. It’s probably pretty small. It may only be a glimmer. That’s OK – not much is needed. A lot can be built on desire. Such as hope. As the bud of increased self-esteem blossoms around hope, it becomes the foundation for confidence and courage. You will not be deceived. You get clarity around the issues that bind activity and decide how to manage them. You are resilient!
Remember, when just enough is not enough, that’s when it’s time to B.E.L.I.E.V.E.
