Welcome to the Gallery. 🙂

@taci,

I am being patient. Be still is what things are telling me. I will get things in the end.
I just need to wait a minute. 🙂

@Sheba, I remember you loved this Throw. Did you buy it and if yes, how do you like it?

@Cherie, I went through my drawers and closet. I thinned it out and organized it. My husband was out of the house for half the day, so I took the opportunity to take the room over, and got rid of some old items that I no longer wear or need. I still have a few items, ok half of my sons closet too :).

You watch some scary shows. I miss the 30 days to Halloween count down on the kids channel. That was big when my son was little. Loved all the not so scary, scary movies. I’m watching ‘The Second Arrival’, never heard of it but it looks good.

@Mooncat, if your here…the brightly colored fur troll vest is getting ready for a Halloween outing haha.

@Sheba, nice hiking wear!

Get Out of Your Own Way

We truly want to succeed but may be afraid, so we subconsciously create circumstances to keep ourselves stuck.

When you find yourself facing obstacles that appear to be blocking you from your goals, it is important to try not to get discouraged. It can be easy to feel “stuck” or that “life” is creating circumstances preventing you from getting what you want. And while it is easy to look at everyone and everything outside of ourselves for the problem, perhaps even wanting to “get rid” of the person, object, or circumstance we may feel is blocking us, sometimes the best course of action to take may be to look inside ourselves first.

It is amazing how often we can get in our own way without even being aware that we are doing so. Even though we truly want to succeed, there are many reasons why we may sometimes block our own efforts. It may be that we are afraid to succeed, so we subconsciously create circumstances to keep ourselves stuck. Or it may even be that we are afraid that we will succeed, so we block ourselves by making the achievement of our goals more difficult than they really are. We may even approach our goals in a way that keeps creating the same unsuccessful results.

If you believe that you’ve been standing in your own way, you may want to take a piece of paper and record how you’ve done so. Write down the choices you’ve made that have hindered your efforts and the fears that may have prompted you to make these decisions. Take note of any thoughts and feelings that arise. It is important to be gentle and compassionate during this process. Try not to blame yourself for getting in your own way. Remember the choices we make always are there to serve us, until it is time to let them go. When you are finished, throw the paper away while setting an intention that you are getting rid of any obstacles you’ve created to block yourself. You can then let yourself start again with a clean slate. Doubts and fears are going to be natural, but with this new awareness, you should be able to prevent yourself from subconsciously thwarting yourself. Besides, now that you’ve decided to get out of your own way, the part of you that has always wanted to succeed can now do so.
