Pattern Recognition

Hey everyone, I hope your journey is going well. I just wanna share an important and valuable pattern I’ve noticed while going through the 7 day life reset.

3 weeks ago it seemed as if my marriage, my work, and my relationship with extended family was in crisis mode. It seemed my whole life was falling apart and I felt anxious, overwhelmed and helpless.

This wasn’t my first time feeling this way though, over the passed 12 years I’ve been going through these cycles as challenges came my way. I consider myself an avid problem solver so when I feel backed in a corner with my issues I normally seek beyond my own understanding. I read, I watch videos, I asses and adjust my diet, my workout, my breathing, my habits, and my influences (social media feed) for optimal mental and physical function. These changes have always served me well. So much so that I’ve grown and evolved so much over the years that I’m pretty unrecognizable to someone who met me at the start of my journey.

Now I get it new levels bring new challenges so I don’t expect life to be easy at all but something about my last breakdown felt too familiar like life was trying to teach me a lesson I’ve learned before or at least I thought I learned.

Prior to that break down I had gotten complacent and stopped my workout routine, wasn’t sleeping well, diet wasn’t the best. No meditation, no reading , no therapy, no journaling, basically very little discipline. I moved away from my building blocks, my foundation, and that led to me crashing out when the turbulence came.

Fast forward to a 1 week ago things got heavy so I started walking at night for 2 miles, then by night 3 I started running, then did my first therapy session and almost immediately I was drawn from my perception of my issues and worrying about them to being PRESENT and you know what, in the present life is actually pretty good. It’s the past and the future that sometimes gives me the chills.

becoming a part of this community and going through the 7 day life reset showed me that I’ve been on track. I knew what to do, I’ve been doing the thing, and it’s brought me a far way. What I’m missing is the community to help me with accountability and consistency when things get easier and this program here is an excellent place for that so thanks
