I am stuck!

Life Design - My Journey to Higher Ground

I am STUCK!  I have been “away” for awhile, because I have not been able to think of anything to say…

Have you ever been “STUCK” before?  Whether it be in Spirituality, relationships, career, interests, education, or “whatever,” being STUCK is not fun…

So, my question to myself is~”How did I get STUCK, and (more importantly,) how do I get UNSTUCK!”

It took two family crisis’ and a less serious personal kinda-sorta crisis to get me STUCK.  I shall not talk about the family crisis’, but my less serious kinda-sorts personal crisis was “simply”  to have trained passionately for a half-marathon run and was training SO passionately that I ended up with a stress-fracture and was grounded from running for 6 weeks!  If you are a runner, you understand.  If you are not, let me just briefly mention (confess) that I was so connected with being a runner and being who I am, that I have struggled with part of my identity.

As I read what I just wrote, please be assured that my TRUE  identity is being “a child of God.”   I just got “off track” with the “rest of me..” :)

Now, the question is “What am I going to do about it?”

Jo Christie, my buddy-coach and I email each other every evening with a “celebrate.”
It is usually just a sentence or two with a small meaningful happening that day that makes us smile.
Being “stuck,” I have re-thought my “celebrate” to something that has inspired me that day.  By focusing on inspiration I am hoping to re-discover my passions and quickly get “unstuck.”

Have you been “STUCK” before?  What did YOU do to get “UNSTUCK!” We would love to hear from you.
