What's holding you back from growth? #selfhelptools #selfhelp

The good news is my grass eventually recovered - once I figured out how my sprinkler system worked…

You need to figure out what resource is it that you’re lacking - what is stopping you from being able to grow and thrive and keeping you in this dormancy phase where all I can do is survive and get through the day.

Once you’ve identified it, find ways to increase the availability of that resource so you can get out of this dormancy period and start to grow and thrive again

I really liked this metaphor 🙆
"Low power mode".

I thought I had commented a few days ago but maybe that was a different video. I’ve watched this video something like 12 times. It’s a brand new concept to me that I don’t always have to be pushing to move forward, and maybe the fact that I do is why I’m at utter exhaustion and fatigue. Fatigue in the medical sense as differentiated from tired. I can’t get myself to make a more difficult meal that peanut butter toast some nights. I’m going to show this to my therapist

I'm dormant ... barely surviving each day ... now how to we get the resources to grow? How so we stop being dormant?

[Curiosity]

💜This explains so much for me. Now the question is, how do I get the resources to "revitalize" myself, when I can barely get through the day? How do I get the strength to go after these "resources"?💜

So true. I wonder how deep the damage could be for some people who are affected by shortage or lack of resources.

Physical body medical problems suck for causing this 😕 I can't unthink my immune system 😫 but just pray for the days I do feel a bit more energy other than survival and the people that love me 🙏

@DrScottEilers thank you for this analogy. I still constantly feel like a huge fail, because thus state is holding on for yeara now. but it's nice to know there are people thinking kindly of losers like me

[francodegasperi]

I feel like I never experienced true growth

[wildflowerwind]

You must be meditating in your yard lately. Maple trees, grass, etc. lol

Oh the woe to public shame
Oh the woe to earth and human being forever learning growing dying and challenging thyself 🙏🏼

Funny that this post doesn’t resonate with me and I killed my plant by overwatering it. I will never be happy.
