Life Purpose

When We’re Stuck At A Crossroad In Life

Sometimes we feel a change coming on. Maybe it’s the marriage or relationship. Maybe it’s the career, or where we live.

We feel unsettled, and sense that it’s time to move on to a new chapter in life. But, something is keeping us stuck.

One minute it makes sense to go, and the next minute we believe we must stay. Or, we believe it’s what we really want, but that old nagging feeling comes back and we’re not sure anymore.

This happens for a few reasons:

  1. We’re too much in our head. Our heart already knows the answer, but our mind keeps pushing down those feelings we keep having. It manifests as lacking clarity, even though the certainty in what we want is buried. But the truth is: Our heart is bigger than our head, and it’s not about to let us stop feeling the truth of what we really what.
  2. There’s a fear that’s creating a roadblock. Our heart is telling us loud and clear what our true desires are, but there’s a fear that was created by a past experience that’s blocking us. So we beat our head against the wall, trying to move forward but we keep spinning our wheels.
  3. We don’t believe it’s the “right” thing to do. There’s a thought we keep thinking that’s created a belief that we can’t do it or shouldn’t do it. We may feel that we’re not good enough, or the belief can be rooted in our childhood and we don’t even know that it’s there.
  4. We don’t trust ourselves, and we can end up listening to others opinions. (This is also because of past experiences, because we can feel like we’ve made mistakes in the past.) And other people’s thoughts can be rooted in their own fears and beliefs. Then we question ourselves, and live a life that’s not true to us.

So how do we move forward and get unstuck? Well, there’s a process.

  1. First, we need to know exactly what our heart truly wants, and not our head. It’s time to throw logic out the window.
  2. Diving deep into our subconscious mind to clear blocks that include fear and limiting beliefs is important, so we don’t keep getting stuck.
  3. We need to understand our core values and what’s most important to us, to know how to plan ahead.
  4. Having a clear vision for our future creates a roadmap to thrive on. This requires us to also go deep.
  5. Having the right guidance to see what we can’t (because we can’t read the label when we’re inside the jar), and the encouragement and support we need to move forward with confidence is also important.

When we have the right structure in place, we set our heart free to live the life that’s aligned with who we really are. 

It all requires going deep to having abundant clarity, removing the blocks that hold us back and creating a future that’s authentic to ourselves.

Because life isn’t meant to be stagnant, and although change can seem hard; it actually sets us free to be, do and have what our heart truly desires. 

Life is meant to be lived, and the transitions we need to go through to live it are like a door of opportunity for a new and amazing adventure. And ultimately, always remember to follow your heart.
