There are times when we know we are heading the right direction. Our goals feel right. The action we are taking feels right. Everything is just working in flow.
Other times everything feels like a hard slog. No matter what we try it feels like a big effort and sometimes too much effort.
It can be easy to question if we are on the right track when things are not going easily or aren’t any fun.
Today we are going to tap for those times when we question if we are on the right path because it is so much work and not any fun.
This Is No Fun! Shouldn’t Every Step Be Fun Because I Am Working Toward What Is Best For Me?
(audio 3m45s)
I want my life to be better…I want my life to be filled with joy…There are so many great things out there for me…There’s so much success to be had…And I’m willing to do the work that it requires…To get to that success…I’m willing to put forth concerted effort…To make my dreams come true…But I have to admit…Some of this work is painful…Some of this work is no fun…Some of this work is downright annoying…And it feels like since I’m working towards a goal…Towards something that should be life giving…Towards something that should be fruitful…That the process itself would be a lot more fun…That the process itself would be a lot more enjoyable…But the fact of the matter is…There are going to be steps that aren’t enjoyable…But there are steps that need to be taken…In order to reach my goal…Obstacles to be cleared…Things to be learned…Effort to be put forth…It will take work…And not all of it is going to be glamorous…Not all of it is going to be fun…But if I do that work…And I keep moving forward…I’m going to position myself…To have those things I want…I’m going to position myself…To have those things I need…I’m going to position myself…To be filled with joy…I give myself permission…To be easy and gentle with myself…As I do tasks that aren’t a great deal of fun…But knowing that by doing the work now…It’s setting me up for long-term success…It’s setting me up for a long-term joy.
