Perhaps you’re ready to make peace with where you are in your life right now. Maybe you need to lead yourself into greater insight and truth? Create a personal breakthrough to change your life.
Consider a changing breakthrough for your life?
Breakthroughs come about when we work with where we are in the present. In other words, keeping our thoughts in the past, without looking forward to what we can do now in our lives, will keep us stuck in our past. I know. I’ve been there. And it wasn’t until I let go of the things, beliefs, the history of my past that was getting in the way of my better future that change began to happen.
Here’s an example of how you could work through a personal breakthrough that can change your life. My client, let’s call her Susan, wanted to have a more fulfilling career. She had worked in the same job for 40 years. Susan was a single mom and, even though her job wasn’t that interesting, she was able to take care of her children, buy a home. Her career provided health insurance, and she had her family close. But as her children grew up and moved out of the house, she became depressed. Susan was lonely. Her life didn’t have meaning, and she went about her days with a sense of sadness most of the time. She didn’t have much to look forward to that gave her joy and happiness.
Susan needed to know how to change her life.
Perhaps you or someone you know is like Susan. The situation may not be the same, but Susan’s story and feelings resonate with many.
Below are some questions to ask yourself. Take your time. Be thoughtful about your answers. This could just be the beginning of a new chapter. You just have to give yourself permission.
- What or whom do you want to become?
- Where’s your goal to change coming from? What’s happening in your life right now that is helping you realize that you need a breakthrough? And how a personal breakthrough can change so much.
- What would it take to get from where you are now to the changes you seek.
- How have you learned to do things in the past that you’ve succeeded at? What were they? And how can you use this to break through for a new future?
- Who influenced you the most growing up.
- How effective was this person in influencing your own behavior and thoughts? And what were they? (This can be either positive or negative.)
You can use what you learned from your past to assist you in a breakthrough for the present.
How do you start moving forward? What are your ideas? Start writing them down. No matter if they seem outlandish, include them in a draft list.
Living your life on your terms indeed can happen. Discover your worth as a woman and create your most confident next chapter.
