Thrive by Getting Out of Your Own Way

Do you get in your own way?   Do you find that you are stuck in a rut of sorts?  Hopefully this short podcast will just make you aware of the obstacles that are standing in the way of success.   Today Linda talks about the things that block success for you.

A Place of Calm can open the pathway to new thinking and becoming more secure.

Getting out of your own way begins with understanding how and where we do that.

Linda discusses:

  • Procrastinating
  • Overthinking
  • Doubting
  • Struggling to make decisions
  • Scattered thinking by doing too much
  • Fearing either failure or success
  • Struggling with emotions
  • Anxiety holding you back
  • Pushing away relationships
  • Wandering aimlessly and reacting to the world around you
  • Struggling with motivation or being seduced by distraction

Remember that taking just one step can put you onto the escalator of success.

Memories to Carry You Forward

               The Holy Family

This weeks podcast is about Memories.  Memories are valuable to us.  Even the small seemingly insignificant moments like pizza parties with the cousins or times spent together across the backyard fence can enhance our lives.  It can include moments when one sits with a grandparent, with a child, or with an older friend.   Our memories carry us through the sad times and losses in our lives to the times when we are walking through gardens or with our grandchildren like I did this past Holy Week.  We visited being at a Retreat Center with my daughter and two smaller grandchildren this week. The gardens were coming to life and the opportunities to find peace for the moment were wonderful.

Remembering each day is special especially when it helps you to laugh over the silly things you have done or the times when being with other people is so uplifting.

Hope this Easter Weekend lifts you up to the many Blessings God has in store for you.

Remember to take the first step, it may put you on the escalator of success!

As we enter into Holy Week, it made me think of all the day-to-day transitions we make.  Often we make these minor moments link together seamlessly and without a great deal of thought.   We flow from taking care of daily issues and from longing for something new or better.   In today’s podcast, Linda addresses the times you may be dealing with and how they affect others around us.
