Ganska Life Transformation Challenge 4/365

All of us coast, wishing for life to get easier, until reality slaps us across the face, giving us that shocked feeling.

It can be a breakup you didn’t see coming, having been in denial about how things were.

It could be being passed over for a promotion, or losing a client.

Or walking up stairs and losing your breath.

Whatever that moment is it comes for all of us.

Here are two things no one has told you, or you heard without “getting it.”

All forms of leveling up begin with a crisis, it’s the moment we see that if we continue as is we will experience pain and suffering and we must take action.

Here’s the interesting one though….

Shortly after these moments, it may be minutes, hours, seconds, the rationalizations begin.

“It’s not THAT bad”

“I can’t change that right NOW”

“I can’t do it”

This comes from the ego within each of us, a mechanism to maintain our familiar status quo, even when the familiar includes a lot of painful shit.

There’s a way to overcome this, which I’ll write and talk about next time.

Just realize, even if it’s screaming at you to now believe it, that all of us experience these fears and thoughts.
