Hello people!
I often hear clients, friends, family members, and even strangers say, “I’m stuck.”
“I’m stuck in a dead-end job.” “I’m stuck in a broken marriage.” “I’m stuck in this small town.” Etc.
I, myself, have uttered those words, “I’m stuck,” many times before, too.
But I don’t anymore!
That’s because I now realize a very simple and powerful truth about ALL situations you might be facing:
This is an absolute game-changer because having a choice means you’re NOT stuck!!! 🥳
“Stuck” only happens when you keep doing the same thing over and over again. Working the same shit-job day in and day out, for example. You get caught up in the hamster wheel/the grind/the rat race, and it feels like you can’t get off.
But that’s NEVER the case because you ALWAYS have a choice!
You can look for a new career. You can look for the same career but with a different company. You can stay with the same company but work in a different department. YOU CAN QUIT!!! Yes, you can! You do have that choice.
Every choice comes with consequences and opportunities….some you may like, others you may not.
Sometimes it’s a matter of choosing the less shitty of two shitty choices…so be it!
Any choice is better than no choice because it inevitably leads to change and change means you’re not stuck.
Remember, “stuck” only happens when you keep doing the same thing over and over again, aka no change.
Choice = change = not stuck.
I know it can oftentimes feel like you don’t have a choice but I promise you, if you spent even 5 minutes objectively looking at your situation(s), you’ll see there is a choice to be made.
“I’m stuck” is a mindset that shuts down any and all possible alternative options. It is a roadblock to freedom.
“I always have a choice” is a mindset that keeps the conversation going; allows for new ideas and opportunities to emerge. It is an open highway to freedom.
Next time you’re feeling frustrated, fed up, and trapped in a situation please remind yourself that you’re not stuck because you always have a choice!
