It happened. For all of my intentionality and verve I still hit a wall. This is how I plan to get my groove back.

I ran out of steam, I tuckered out…however you like to put it basically I simply hit a wall.

It’s not like I haven’t been working on my personal issues around abundance this whole time (I’m constantly watching myself and finding those hidden beliefs then working through them) – it’s just that for all of my systems and all of my good habits and all of my great intentions I still hit a major point of resistance and kind of quit updating the Abundance Experiment blog and the action pieces behind the intention of abundance.

I have to say “kind of” because obviously I haven’t totally quit. I’ve build the Conscious Transitions Course and I’m still giving my Free Calls and I’m actually enjoying Twitter…which I still don’t totally get – but whatever (always follow your feel good, people!!).

So by  “quit” I simply mean that I came to a point where it’s time to either bust through or just keep coasting.

I don’t coast.

And yet…here I am: It’s been over a month since I’ve last posted on The Abundance Experiment. I haven’t written a new article in about as long. I got the final edits back from my editor on my book keep forgetting that the onus is on me once again.

When I really get down to the real issue it’s this: It’s time for big, big breakthrough and I can feel it in my bones. I’ve hit a wall and I know that big success I’ve been working toward is just on the other side of it. And I don’t know what that means. I don’t know what it looks like. One of my biggest goals for this business is to create a really kick-ass team of people and be able to put money in the pockets of fabulous people (that’s why I started the referral program) that means growth. I’ve never been anything but a solo-preneur.

I have a big vision for myself

It’s true. I have always had a big vision for myself. From the time that I was a little girl and learned that I should’ve died from the massive head injury I sustained while in the care of my father I thought, “hmm…well, I must be meant to do something important then!” Like it was an interesting fact of life. Now I’m here, so close to that big something, I’ve got all of the excuses in the book. A lot of them are legitimate … and still they’re stall tactics.

Here’s the plan

I know that muscling my way through will only last for so long and will develop resistance to everything I’m doing so…..

I’m going to use my own tools.
From Conscious Transitions I’m going to borrow from “The Grief Plan” and recognize that “even though I have excuses and I’m tentative about what is next for me and if I can handle it I still love myself for my tenacity, grit, and smarts” because all of those experiences can exist in the same me without conflict and I’m always worthy of love and compassion.

From F.A.I.L* to Win (For All Is Love) I’m going to use the “This, AND” tool from the All Section when I hit resistance that I don’t recognize. “This stall tactic is generated from some subconscious belief AND it’s giving me practice at that tenacity I’m so proud of (the grace too). It serves my highest purpose.”

Also from FTW I’m going to use the “yeah, buts and true thats” exercise.
“I have what it takes to build this business and myself to the next level”
“Yeah but it’s still just you and you might let someone down” <—— this is where I can do some work using above exercises
“It’s true that I have what it takes because somehow I always have – even when I didn’t know I had it.” <——– is that some hidden evidence and confidence? wow!

I’m going to engage each step with curiosity and playfulness. Like a Twitter ad. Rather than say, “ok, Triff, it’s time to put it all out there and hope to God people love it.” I’m going to say, “I wonder what happens if I just promote a post with a link to ‘The Squeeze’ exercise?”

I hit a wall and I’ve hit a wall before

I find it amusing when I get to this place. I know I have what it takes. I’ve done it before. I’ll do it again. Still, I’m human. Fear, doubt, disappointment; they’re all a part of the human experience. Without them I could not practice love, commitment and joy and for that reason I am thankful that I am here on this abundance journey.

Do you do this same thing where you really get to moving and then out of the blue it’s like it’s just over? How do you switch gears and get back on track? Or do you?
