I’ve said before that as one levels up one’s level of consciousness, one has to go through paradigms that seem completely bizarre and make no sense to a person who hasn’t levelled up yet because they don’t have the perception to comprehend the meaning of it, until they go through the process and paradigm themselves.
One of these paradigms relates to feeling stuck in your life.
Conventionally when a person feels stuck, they think something is wrong with them.
This was me years back when feeling stuck at a different stage of my life. Back then, when I hit a major roadblock in my growth and development, I would sometimes completely give up my life’s work for months, even a year.
When you move past conventional thinking and start seeing things post-conventionally, you begin to realize that there is a purpose to feeling stuck in life.
It’s meant to slow you down.
It’s meant to make you stop and reflect.
It’s meant to make you take time to process and digest things.
In effect, feeling stuck is what starts the adventure.
It’s the start of the levelling up process.
If you ignore it or try to avoid it, all you’ll be doing is making yourself feel more stuck.
The goal isn’t to avoid the stuckness.
It’s to fully embrace it and get lost in it, surrendering to it even.
That’s the call to adventure.
It’s an adventure because there is no clear ending.
You have to trust the process because your conscious mind cannot rationally lead you through it.
You have to feel your way through it in the dark.
Why?
Because you don’t have the eyes yet to see the destination.
