The 3-step reset I use when my day starts to spiral
|
Ever have one small thing happen and your whole day starts to unravel? Nothing crazy. Just one thought, one shift, and suddenly you are in your head overthinking everything and you cannot find your way back out. That used to take me out for the entire day. Until I learned this. Not how to feel better... but how to interrupt it. Here is the exact 3-step reset I use: 1. Name it Not "I am anxious." Not "I am spiraling." Say this instead: "I am in FOG right now." "I am feeling anxious right now." That one shift creates separation between you and the feeling. You are not the fog. You are just in it. And that changes everything. 2. Locate it Where is it actually showing up right now? Core β your thoughts are spiraling Clarity β you feel lost and directionless Connection β you are pulling away from people Creation β you have stopped taking action completely Pick one. Just one. 3. Shift one thing Not everything. Not a whole new routine. Just one thing. Send the text. Go for the walk. Write the thought out. Do the one thing you have been avoiding. That is it. That is how you move back into FIRE. Not perfectly. But intentionally. This is one of the first things I work through with my clients because if you cannot interrupt the pattern... the pattern keeps running your life. Simple as that. Next time your day starts to spiral... try it. Name it, locate it, shift one thing. That is the whole move. PROUD OF YOU π Walking with you, Leasha P.S.

Let me give you a different way to look at this week. You are sitting there thinking "I fell off" or "I should have done more" or "I am back in the same place again." But what if that is not actually true? What if you are not going backwards... it just feels like you are? Here is something I discovered on this journey that changed the way I see everything. Most of us were taught to think about growth as a straight line. You start at the bottom, you work hard, you move up. Progress is linear...
Happy Saturday y'all. And before I get into the usual weekend energy... I just want to be real with you today. Because that is kind of the whole point of this. Things have felt a little chaotic lately. Not the highlight reel version. The actual behind the scenes. The stuff I could easily leave out and just post the wins instead. I am still figuring out this whole entrepreneur path. Still learning how to step into that version of me. And if I am honest... there is a part of me that still slips...
Quick question for you todayβ¦ When you say, βI am just tired,β do you actually mean tired? Or do you meanβ¦ βI am emotionally fried.β βI do not want to explain myself.β βI have been pretending I am fine all week.β βI feel like I am one minor inconvenience away from losing my shit.β βI have no clue who I am right now, but I have to keep functioning anyway.β Because I used to call it tired too. But it was not always tired. Sometimes it was survival mode wearing a hoodie and calling itself...
