When life is throwing everything it's got at us, it's hard to remember, "I am not my shi%t!
Whether you're being challenged with your health, finances, in business or your career. It might be your marriage, your kids, your house needs repairs, your car has broken down...
Whatever your sh%t is... that's not you.
Who are you?
You are a spiritual being have a human experience. Maybe it's feeling "super-human" and not in a good way!!
Our brain - the mind - is hardwired to protect us, so it seems like a good idea to the mind to condemn and shame you out of these difficult circumstances. Maybe that will get you to do something different so that the mind will feel safe!
When lions were chasing us in the Serengeti, that was a very efficient strategy.
Today, not so much.
Today our difficult circumstances don't usually mean literal life or death. But our mind responds that way. So we fight or flee or freeze.
None of those strategies help us evolve into a better person. They only get us out of a temporarily crisis.
Today's challenging circumstances require what Einstein described as a "new mind" to create a new way of solving a problem, that is different than the mind that created the problem.
As long as we are identified with our problem, "I am not good enough." "I am terrible with money." "I'm not good at creating romantic relationships that feel loving and that last." "I'm not a good mother/father." And the list goes on... we will never be able to create a new mindset. We will fight, flee or freeze. And keep going round and round again with the same cycle.
That's why coaching is so important. We all need a coach to help us get to that new mindset instead of recreating our challenging circumstances all over again. That's like escaping the lion today and then going out into the same spot in the Serengeti tomorrow only to be chased by the lion again!
Who needs that!
When the challenging times hit, it's easy to become "identified" with them.
I am a bad parent.
I suck at my job. (I hate my job is equally as powerful0
I am terrible in relationships, or dating.
I am not good with money.
Or, an over-arching one, "I've ruined my life." Or, the equivalent.
All of those statements come from a place of identifying with your circumstances rather than knowing…
All of those statements come from a place of identifying with your circumstances rather than knowing..
I am powerful.
I am resourceful.
I am a spiritual being having a human experience.
I am the best parent I am capable of being today.
