“When you begin to manage your mindset and you being to think, feel and behave differently it takes a while to impress upon your subconscious you are doing things differently now. Just as it takes a while for the Chinese Bamboo to become visible.
Once planted, it is watered and nurtured for up to 6 years. The plant remains underground with no evidence of growth. In the 7th year the plant sprouts and grows to about 90 feet within 6 weeks. Can you imagine? You notice nothing all that while, then suddenly boom!
It’s growing underground the entire time. When it comes to making changes and continuing to form new habits you may not notice anything for a while. It is part of the process. Don’t be discouraged. Stick with it. It’s the most important part of the process!
Change Your Thoughts And You Transform Your Life
You’ll feel like giving up. You may complain or whine that you aren’t seeing results. You may get confused. This is why you want a coach to help see you through it. This is when you must change your thoughts and transform your life. It’s happening. Don’t give up.
It’s possible, even likely, you’ll resist some of the process and progress you make. You may find it uncomfortable, or you get frustrated. People tend to get upset when they don’t feel they are progressing when they actually are. They resist changing.
Let go. Allow the process. Don’t get discouraged. Stay optimistic and positive when it appears nothing is happening. Stay committed and allow things to unfold even when they seem counter-intuitive. Stay the course. As new things occur release the old. Let it go. Allow.
Change Your Thoughts And You Transform Your Life
Stop fighting and welcome the new. It can be scary to move outside your comfort zone but moving outside your comfort zone is precisely what is needed. We outgrow the old just as we outgrow clothes. Be willing to move forward with fun and delight and it will become easier than you presently imagine. It all has a way of working out for good. So allow and accept and celebrate everything.” Rex Sikes
