The Curtain Falls<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

You might have just hit a rough patch. Or maybe those feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt are part of a larger problem that relates to anxiety or depression. Whatever the reason, you might feel like a big curtain has fallen that makes it hard  (maybe even impossible) to see a better future for yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I Just Can\u2019t See It<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

You can\u2019t see yourself happy. You can\u2019t see yourself as successful. You can\u2019t see yourself in love. You can\u2019t see yourself well. You can\u2019t see yourself free of worry, fear, or doubt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And seeing is believing.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You Have to See to Believe<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

If you can\u2019t see it, you won\u2019t believe it\u2019s possible for yourself. If you don\u2019t believe it\u2019s possible, you won\u2019t make steps toward making things different for yourself. So, how do you allow yourself to see something when you\u2019ve lost that ability?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En-Vision: Call It Like You Want It<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

To allow yourself to see what is truly possible for yourself, ask yourself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Would I Do IF:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

l. <\/strong>I had all the resources needed<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.<\/strong> I had perfect health and energy<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3.<\/strong> I knew I could not fail<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What would<\/em> you be doing? Where would you be right now<\/em>? Who<\/em> would you be with?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One Last Question<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Is there anything you can do today that allows you to take even a small step toward this possibility?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the answer is yes\u2026 (hint: the answer is yes!), do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t stop to tell yourself how it\u2019s doomed and you\u2019re going to fail and it doesn\u2019t matter anyway. Participate in taking just one step toward your vision. Walk into the picture you just painted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s better there. It\u2019s going to be better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
