We all have those moments where we are stuck in a rut. It’s normal, it happens and sometimes we need to soak it in and know that things will change. We just have to do our best to control that component. We get to control a good amount of our narrative in life, not all of it (wishful thinking).
Feeling stuck can feel like sinking in quicksand and not being able to stay afloat. You take a step ahead in something in life and then you end up moving three steps back. It sucks, it’s happened to me within the past year and it’s not fun. It’s why I’m writing this blog now, because sometimes reading something like this makes it relatable to you or someone else.
Whatever it is that you’re stuck in a rut about, take the time to think about how you got to this place and how you can get yourself out of it. Whether it’s your job, career, money, drive and purpose, fulfillment in life, or anything else you can think of, there’s opportunities to make things better and right. It won’t be easy but it surely will be worth it in the long run.
The world is in disarray right now and I get it. The negativity that’s going on around us isn’t helping much and that could surely be a contributing reason to being in a rut. When it comes to world affairs, it’s hard to not pay attention or feel good about life so I totally get it. Everytime I go onto my social media platforms, I’m seeing so much and being fed so much information all at once. Sometimes we need to decompress from that and a lot of times it’s needed.
The rut you’re in has its purpose and reason. You might need to recharge your battery, you’re probably drained from life. You might need to change routine or habits or even your job, who knows. I don’t know where you are in your life at this present moment but whatever you’re dealing with, find someone that you trust and talk to them. They might be feeling the same way you are and need a listening ear themselves. We’re all going through or dealing with something, we need to tell our stories in a safe space.
Everything I pen has a purpose and reason and I’m thankful to be able to write blogs like this. I hope this blog was helpful in resolving whatever you’re dealing with and going through in the present moment. Everything takes time, it’s a journey and we have to stick together to get through it.
Thanks for reading my blog, have a good week, be good and go accomplish your goals!
