When moving through change, it’s easy to get stuck.
That’s because change brings up emotions that keep us trapped in what once was. You may be overwhelmed by change demons—fear, blame, guilt, doubt, impatience and shame—or maybe you’re repeating a story that keeps you thinking like a victim.
Get unstuck by turning on your Change GPS! A GPS navigator only asks two questions: Where are you now? And where do you want to go?
Today, activate your Change GPS by stating your desire in the present tense. For example, if you want to lose weight, say, “I am eating right and exercising and I feel great about how I look.” Then create a plan of action. Watch how quickly you arrive at your destination.
Your Change GPS helps you move ahead by alerting you if you’re off course and reminding you to focus on your final destination.
So, if you want to lose weight, you can list the numerous reasons why you think you’re overweight—an action that keeps you stuck in the past—or you can create a clear intention of where you want to go and how you’re going to get there.
