Part of being an eternal being is having an insatiable desire to grow, expand… become a greater, fuller expression of you. However with that desire to become “more”, often comes a frustration with where you are. You may experience thoughts like ” It’s not coming quick enough!”, ” Why haven’t I gone further?”, “What am I doing wrong?”, “When will I finally reach ____?”
I often hear clients expressing these frustrations. However, when I encourage them to reflect back to when they started the coaching process, or when they started their spiritual journey, they are often amazingly surprised. As they focus on where they were 10 years ago, 2 years ago, even 6 months ago, they are astounded just how far they have come. How much healthier they are, how much happier they are, how much their relationships have improved, how much the HAVE accomplished. By the end of that session, they have completely shifted from frustration to gratitude and optimism. And from that vibration, they are ready to tackle the next step in their evolution with more energy & excitement.
Remember friends, it is never done. You will always have a new desire to improve, grow, expand. So, when you are feeling frustrated with where you are and noticing that dip in your vibration, take some time to reflect back on just how far you have come. Appreciate all the ways you have grown spiritually and otherwise. Then take a moment to imagine just how much more you will grow in 6 months, 2 years, 10 years as you continue to commit to this path!
And also remember, what you focus on grows. So, the more time you spend appreciating just how far you’ve come, the more the universe can support you in expanding further, providing you with even more to appreciate!
