Surviving the Ultimate Crash
When Failure Becomes Success: The Expectation Loop
How many of you have ever felt like you were sliding towards disaster? And as you are moving towards this disaster, does it feel like suddenly life is in slow motion? Have you ever been in a car accident or close call and notice how time seems to move so very slowly, moving at a snail's pace until the incident has passed? Whether it was a car accident, a failing marriage, financial problems, separation, divorce, or a work-related incident, we have all felt at sometime in our life the momentum of the slow slide towards the ultimate crash.
Life is like that, it loves to throw in challenges and see how we respond. Often times, they are put there for one simple reason: to help us grow and evolve. How long it takes for us to move forward is contingent on us, and how quickly one gets all the learning's from the incident. Have you ever heard someone say their 'stuck' or 'in a rut'? Or, have you ever felt 'stuck' in a life circumstance or phase wanting to experience the next chapter of your life, but you don't know what's preventing this from happening? Well, do you think you have learned what is necessary to receive your heart's desires? Have you become accountable and accepted responsibility for where you are now? Are you willing to become what you want to attract? Are you willing to stop blaming others and/or circumstances for your life situation?
How we handle each crash in our life is up to us. Often we map our own life plan, which could go something like this for some people: graduate from high school, great job, marriage, kids, dream home, living happily ever after. Since we are all very different, our life plan we map is also very different, however, the way we handle those unexpected crashes, such as divorce, job loss, financial disasters, death can be very similar, experiencing anger, loss, depression, denial, sadness, shyness, shame and isolation. When circumstances do not go our way does this mean we failed? Sometimes, we get caught up in an expectation loop, we intend to succeed all the time, as we all should, however, we forget the alternate paths to success that are unique to us which defines our own success. Therefore, we go through life with all those unpleasant emotions failing to recognize our true successes.
Failure is a universal experience. There are many learning's in failure that helps us grow stronger as we weather the storm. However, finding all these hidden learning's attached to the incident can be difficult to determine on our own. If you feel you have failed or had a 'crash' and are stuck and want out, help is right here at your fingertips, just give me a call for a free consultation and I will explain how I can assist you out of that rut!
