You are bigger than any problem that occurs in your life.
There are a lot of problems that don’t feel that way.
Problems that feel as big as the world, sometimes.
How can you really be bigger than all that mess?
What’s the real problem?
You, like most humans, make space in your head for many things beyond what impacts you and that you can impact.
Some of those things are deflections, where your brain focuses on a big external upset to avoid having to deal with more tangible problems you don’t want to face.
It’s easier to be upset at the state of government sometimes than to sit down and examine your personal budget.
Sometimes it works the other way, and you focus on tiny problems you can control because it’s hard to face bigger problems and identify actions you can take.
Ever cleaned your refrigerator to not work on a project that frequently stresses you?
You’re finding ways to cope with feeling upset, angry, and anxious. You’re not changing anything about the reason you feel that way.
The real problem is that your beliefs tell you this is something you can’t do anything about. That it’s bigger than you.
Changing the Game
Being bigger than any problem doesn’t mean being able to make the problem disappear instantly.
It means being able to understand what you want the most, to form an Intention and take action to achieve that plan, and deal with the inevitable friction and bumps in the road.
It means building your Awareness of your limiting beliefs, things you believe that no longer support your growth. Then Confronting those beliefs and releasing them.
Believe that you can have the things you want the most. Those things will require effort and some amount of time to attract.
Commit to being more resourceful, capable, and determined than any problem, even if you don’t see how that works right away. That first step is often acknowledging your first reactions are to cope, not to grow and overcome.
You can grow and build your skills of Intention, Awareness, and Confront. And as they grow, you will find that your freedom, choice, and power grow apace.
You can do this. I can help.
