NO ENERGY, OR LOW ENERGY.
IN A FUNK.
CONSTANT DISCOURAGEMENT.
ONE THING AFTER THE OTHER.
AND THEN…. THERE’S BUSINESS.
HERE’S WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU’RE STUCK,
UNINSPIRED, AND NOTHING FEELS GREAT ANY MORE.
Honest to God,
Just as I sat down to write this post,
after a full day of no internet,
my power went out.
You can’t make this up.
My laptop is on 10% battery.
I’m leaving for Chicago tomorrow.
I’ve had approximately (I don’t want to exaggerate) maybe 10 hours of ACTUAL uninterrupted work time in about as many days.
Some days, you feel like you just can not win.
And MANY of you are feeling like that today… or have been feeling like that all week, or maybe for longer.
In a funk, you say.
Uninspired, you say.
Need a kick in the ass, you say.
Lacking clarity, you say.
Wanting to “hibernate” until the New Year, you mention.
And listen, I GET IT.
I’m also going to BEG you to stay with me.
Do NOT hibernate.
Do NOT wrap things up until January 1st.
Do NOT give up on what can be the MOST profitable and rewarding days of the year.
To be honest, I’ve been feeling the same.
As I type, My husband is furious with me…
because for the first time in our marriage, I am JUST “spent” elsewhere. I’ve had a lot going on and it’s been kind of “full on” for a while.
Plus, you know…
business doesn’t just “stop” when your being tossed around by life a bit. So, while my WORLD feels all topsy turvy, I have amazing opportunities knocking down my door RIGHT NOW with Women Who WOW, my “other” love affair. =) Next year’s calendar already filling up…
you know,
the way I always wished it would…
the way I always envisioned it would…
the way I SAID it would… “one day”
in the way that I see others SAY their calendar is filled.
And it’s barely November.
I just announced my LAST VIP days until April 2019. I’ll have ONE other (group) opportunity to work with me at a higher level in 2019 and that’s it. I’m seriously full. (I decided to GIVE AWAY this LAST VIP day… and if you want to grab it, keep reading.)
8% battery. Gotta hurry.
Still, **I** have a tendency to want to hibernate.
Hide a bit,
wait until the waves stop battering the ship,
push pause until the sun comes out again,
until I wake up bright eyed and bushy tailed again,
until I feel INSPIRED again,
until I feel ready (whatever that means).
I wrote about this recently to Women Who WOW members… about how it’s like a snake shedding its old skin. He goes into a “funk,” eats less than usual, hides more, is less social. WHY?
Because he is in the spot in between.
In between his old skin that IS NO LONGER a FIT,
and the NEW skin… that will continue to let him GROW and STRETCH into his full potential…
in between what was one day SO fine,
but the next day… too tight, too constrictive, too NOT QUITE RIGHT.
THIS has been the source of my funk.
I am shedding the old,
in favor of the new.
I am allowing things to leave, to be released,
and in so doing,
i am BOTH
preparing for the new
AND
simultaneously,
feeling sluggish, uninspired,
READY for the new,
and also,
maybe a bit…
apprehensive
about FULLY shedding the old.
And yet,
here I am…
being visible when I prefer to hide,
expanding when my ego says,
“NO PULL IT BACK IN…
Let’s PUSH PAUSE,”
straining towards the goal,
because…
THIS
IS
WHO
I
AM.
4%. Gotta hurry.
When you’re in that spot…
the in between spot,
the in a funk spot
in your business or life,
here are three ways to SHED the old,
and reveal the new:
1) Get clear on what people need to hear… and SHOULD hear from you. For instance, everyone needs to hear about how to manage money. THIS is not something they should hear from ME. =) I’m still very much a stumbling newbie here. Every entrepreneurs NEEDS to hear how to make money ON DEMAND while doing what you love and without selling your soul. THIS… THIS is something they should hear from ME.
The reason you need to get clear on this is because it allows you to hone in on your message, your magic, your mission. It allows your VISION to become more clear as you shed the old and embrace the new.
2) Go through the closet of your life… and throw out what no longer fits. This could be a person… a wardrobe… a location… WHATEVER. Don’t attempt to take what was meant for the OLD and bring it into the new.
In so doing, embrace the FREEDOM of purging what is no longer a PERFECT fit.
3) Finally, identify what is TRYING SO HARD to come into your life, your brand, your business. THIS is that thing that you’ve picked up, toyed with, put down… pushed pause on, delayed on, planned but NEVER implemented. And then… DO THE THING.
We are heading into the two minute drill of 2018. This is NO time to stop, to slow down, to hibernate. Instead, do the opposite. Shed the old, embrace the new and PRESS toward the goal. We still have a lot of year left.
