Don’t resist reality-Even if it’s not the reality that you want right now.
What’s the quickest way to change your life? The easiest, the most efficient?
It’s seeing reality as it really is.
Worts and all.
Even if you don’t like your current reality, it’s yours. You may be stuck in a job that you hate, or have a car that keeps breaking down, or need a holiday. Equally once you start recognising your reality you might be surprised by the positive aspects that you take for granted, like a loving partner, family that love you, supportive friends.
If you accept that you hate your job then you can start to explore the reasons that you stay in that job. For example, you might tell yourself that you can’t afford to quit but there are many little steps in the middle of admitting that you hate your job and then working to find a new one. Searching for inspiration for jobs online, even if it’s without purpose, and just contemplating options. Drawing up ideas of incomings and outgoings in a typical month so that you know what your base line financial need is, doing online courses in the evening to retrain. Simply sitting in a quiet, comfortable space and having a day dream about what your perfect job would be. Do you know what that would be?
