Overcoming stuckness, just do it…………. March 10, 2006
Posted by bodhidude in : Livelihood, Psychology , trackbackI was connecting with people in this group I attend weekly the other night and the topic came up of people feeling stuck in trying to create the meaningful fulfilling things they desire in their lives. I also have experienced this especially with what I want to do for a living or right livelihood. I’ve worked in the technology field for so long and just have no interest in it anymore whatsoever. I feel so drawn to healing and helping people but I always approached it from the perspective of money. What kind of healing work can I do that will allow me to pay the bills? How will I make a enough money doing what I love. Then someone pointed out to me that maybe thats totally the wrong approach. I was approaching my lifes work from the perspective of money when money is not my priority or focus, helping and healing is my priority. My friend said to me ‘You know what you want to do, why don’t you just do it?’. I processed that and realized, yeah why don’t I just do it instead of analyzing it to death? What a release that was for me. So simple yet so profound. If I want to do healing work with people I can start doing it and let it develop over time into something that can sustain me. In the meantime I can help people right now in the moment with just what I have to offer and I have a job for now that can pay the bills while I develop my passion. It can be so easy to not believe in oneself yet such a drastic shift if we do. It blows my mind how when light gets shed on obstacles we create for ourselves, how quickly they can be overcome and how unreal they actually were in the first place. Makes me believe that the possibilities are just about limitless…….
