Step Back and get in the Flow
By Dina Dove
In my way of thinking, that’s what vacations are for. Sometimes I am just too close to the problem when I’m in a workaholic mode. I might hit a block in the project I’m working on, but my tendency is often to keep trying to break thru it, rather than step back and let the answer emerge. Can’t we all be so hard headed sometimes? We can be so sure we have the right answer that we can’t see the real truth standing in front of us. In my best moments, I know the truth. Life is meant to flow. On vacations, we just naturally fall into that mode simply by relaxing and allowing ourselves to take a ‘vacation’ from our perceived problems. Miraculously, that different perspective allows new possibilities and solutions to arise. Just changing your mindset from one of obsessing to wondering can make all the difference. Take your finances for instance. If you are one of the millions of people in America today who are upside down in mortgage and credit card debt, step back. Consider a new way of thinking. In fact, to truly solve that problem, you absolutely must come to a new way of thinking. Your financial problems are not really about money in the first place. Something happened long before you got in this position and it happened inside your brain. Your thoughts about money dictated what you would buy and how you would pay for it. And, believe it or not, even before that, your thoughts about happiness and fulfillment are where it really started. After all, didn’t you buy all those things, the bigger house and the newer car, because you thought they would make you happy? Now that you realize the stress that came along with out of control spending was not worth it, you have a wonderful opportunity to change your mind and look at your life through new eyes. Changing your mind is the most important change you will ever make. The predicament you may be in from the old mindset, can take some time to resolve, but with your new found knowledge, your long term solution is at hand. And, during this time of tightening your belt, you are can now see great purpose in learning the skills that will build a solid financial future for your family. To everything there is a season. Make this your season of learning.

Thank you for sharing this great advise, Dina. Sometimes it's hard to drain the swamp, when it's full of alligators.
Best to you.
