Why progress feels slow when you're changing your life🌼
There is a very specific kind of frustration that happens when you are doing deep inner work and your outer life still looks almost the same. you're following through all the self-care, trying to breathe more consciously, trying to regulate your nervous system, even now you might be noticing old patterns sooner. You are catching yourself before reacting the same way as before. And still... part of you looks around and thinks, okay but where is the massive shift? Is it worth it to put so much of work into something that doesn't bring me any fruits?? I remember having seasons like that where I really felt like I was doing so much inner work and somehow had “nothing to show for it.”. for a long long time, it was just me, my journal, my thoughts, daily action, showing up and this quiet hope that something was changing underneath it all. But it felt super discouraging after some time because it felt like pouring water into bucket with holes. but with time and more effort and patience, the results have no other choice than to show up. So let this be a little reminder to keep going in that right direction that you know you want to take, because right now it might feel super chaotic, but nothing lasts for long. 🌼💛 I am curious, where in your life does it feel slow right now... even though deep down you know you are not the same person anymore? 🌱
