Hey Golden Child!
Happy October! (Can someone tell me where September went? PLEASE! It's already Q4 of the year....)
As we enjoy this day of rest and reflection, let’s take a moment to explore a transformative journey: overcoming obstacles. Life is a series of challenges, and often, it’s these very challenges that lead us to discover our true strength and resilience. Today, I want to share my personal experiences and insights with you, hoping to inspire you as you navigate your own hurdles.
In recent months, I’ve faced several significant obstacles: managing high blood pressure, co-parenting with a narcissist, dealing with a truck that’s been out of commission for a month, and grappling with financial challenges in my business that have made me question whether I should continue. But through all of this, I’ve learned invaluable lessons and discovered powerful strategies to overcome these obstacles. Let’s dive into four key aspects of overcoming obstacles that can help you on your own path.
1. Leaning into Your Support System
When life gets tough, one of the most powerful tools we have is our support system. I’ve found that leaning into my friends, family, and community has been crucial in navigating my challenges. There were days when I felt overwhelmed, particularly while managing co-parenting with a narcissist, which can be emotionally draining. But by reaching out to those who understand me, sharing my struggles, and allowing them to support me, I’ve felt less alone in my journey.
Practical Tip: Make a list of supportive people in your life. Reach out to them when you’re feeling the weight of your challenges. Whether it’s a phone call, coffee date, or simply sharing your thoughts over text, don’t hesitate to lean on those who uplift you.
2. The Healing Power of Energetic Work
As a spiritual person who believes in God as the Creator and orchestrator of everything, I’ve turned to energetic healing work to help me navigate my obstacles. This has included practices such as meditation, visualization, and energy clearing. During difficult moments, especially when faced with high blood pressure, I’ve found solace in grounding myself and tapping into divine energy for healing. It’s remarkable how shifting my energy can shift my perspective.
Practical Tip: Consider incorporating energetic practices into your routine. Whether it’s through meditation, yoga, or sound healing, find what resonates with you and commit to it regularly. These practices can help you regain balance and clarity as you face challenges.
3. Journaling as a Tool for Clarity
Journaling has become my sanctuary, a safe space where I can express my thoughts and emotions without judgment. I often find myself writing about my frustrations with my truck being down and the financial strain it has caused. Through journaling, I’ve been able to articulate my feelings, confront my fears, and brainstorm solutions. The act of putting pen to paper has been cathartic, allowing me to gain clarity and perspective. (If you're a digital person, then do what works for you.)
Practical Tip: Start a daily journaling practice. Set aside time each evening to reflect on your day. Write about your challenges, your feelings, and any solutions you envision. This practice will not only provide clarity but also serve as a record of your growth.
4. Shifting Your Perspective
Finally, one of the most profound lessons I’ve learned is the power of perspective. There were moments when I felt like giving up on my business, but I realized that obstacles are often opportunities in disguise. By shifting my mindset from defeat to curiosity, I’ve begun to see how these challenges can lead to growth, innovation, and resilience. I’ve started asking myself, “What can I learn from this situation?” instead of “Why is this happening to me?”
Practical Tip: Whenever you face an obstacle, consciously choose to shift your perspective. Ask yourself empowering questions that lead to growth and discovery. This simple shift can transform your experience and open doors to new possibilities.
