Stop Playing Small - You Are Not Stuck!

Paul Scanlon1:14

Transcription

I gave this advice to someone that felt stuck recently, and I wrote down what I said to them to pass on to you.

I said to them, "You're not stuck. You're just attached to old patterns that once kept you safe, but now they are keeping you small. You've outgrown the mindset, the habits, the coping, but you still reach for them. Not because they work, but because they are familiar. So it becomes new level, same formula, and the same outcomes. It's not that you're broken. I said you're just repeating patterns. Shift the inputs. Let go of the version of you that needed the struggle that's attached to all those patterns. Change your focus, or stay loyal and stuck in an old cycle."

Does that make sense to everybody? Let me know what you think in the comments.

Sending love to any of you who feel stuck today. I've been there many times in my life. No shame in being stuck. Just try not to stay there longer than you need.
