Need To Take Your Life Back?

 

In the midst of our frenetic pace in life, it's NOT surprising if sometimes we'll hear someone fantasizing about literally deleting his calendar [because it NEVER runs out of endless pencil-bookings] OR worst, one WHO's contemplating to quit his job OR to escape from his day-to-day realities, one wants to book a one-way flight [to nowhere, ouch] and starting afresh somewhere like a retirement life option in Bali OR in Thailand.  YES, if we heard those folks, they're NOT alone because many more are contemplating📗📙📘

BUT here's the thing.  Studies show that even the most 'high-functioning' and thoughtful people could hit the wall one day.  BUT NOT because they are lazy, dramatic OR lost BUT because they have outgrown a version of their life, and DON'T kno WHAT to do next.  YES, that sounds like burnout and it feels like restlessness, somewhat like wanting to be anywhere BUT here's the thing.  Most of the time, we DON'T need to start all over again BUT simply find a way forward💚💛💜

BUT let's hear it from the experts.  Contrary to the notion that we should be focused for us to TAKE OUR LIFE BACK, they say that in 99% of cases, the real issue ISN'T life itself BUT instead it is our strategy for navigating it.  The old school teaches us to push harder, do more and just shrug off that feeling of getting caught up.  Our mentors in the past would tell us to solve problems via that productivity platform and WHEN something does NOT feel right, we thought we just need to work harder, wake up earlier, and keep powering on till it clicks😌😌😌

NOW, let's here the experts whack us off.  They claim that if the real problem is misalignment [and NOT laziness OR poor discipline], exerting more effort just WON'T fix it.  Instead, it just hides it for a little longer.  Oh Oh, that feeling you're trying to push through?  They say that's NOT a bug but instead, those are tell-tale signs.  NOW the confusion turns from bad to worse when we get mixed signals like:

• You're successful BUT you DON'T feel it
• Yo're doing right things but you feel unfulfilled
• You're unsure if you're navigating the wrong way

Our takeaway:  The past years, WHEN we hear 'RESTRATEGIZE' , threats of a revamp OR a major reorganization pops up BUT experts caution us that it's NOT about throwing everything out BUT instead, it's about pausing and asking ourselves a tough cookie question:  WHAT IF THE LIFE I'VE BUILT ISN'T WRONG BUT THE WAY I LIVE THAT DOESN'T WORK?  In that case, STRATEGIZE dude!!!
