TOXICITY: Blurring the Line between You and Your Dream
Posted on March 22, 2013 by Caryn Chow, One of Thousands of Entrepreneurship Coaches on Noomii.
We all blab on about our dream, but is it really achievable with the requisite passion, discipline, persistence, perseverance, relentless drive?
We all know the answer to that! Roadblocks. Obstacles. Challenges. Any way you spin it you are sure to have plenty of them, and eventually you will get better at working around, overcoming, rising to and above. The real question is just how equipped are you to handle these situations? Sure, there are techniques and yes, there is coaching. But what should be the very first step towards attaining everything you’ve ever wanted in life – business, career, love, marriage, family, health, wealth, success…? What physiological ingredient is needed to ensure that your mind, body, spirit FLOWS so that these intrusions don’t grow into a full-fledged, disastrous phenomenon that could ultimately cause you to tailspin into a downward spiral? CLARITY.
Picture this scenario: A husband goes out into the world and makes a decent living for himself and his family. They’re all very happy yet there is something lacking in his life and he can’t quite put his finger on it. He feels stuck in a rut and his happy home life slowly begins to unravel.
Or this: A successful woman entrepreneur – living the dream she carved out for herself – only to return home as her alter ego engages in self-emasculation, ultimately negatively impacting her relationships and lifestyle?
Tell me you haven’t heard about these scenarios. Maybe you even know someone going through it. It’s a harsh reality unfortunately being experienced by many “successful” people these days.
So how did something which once showed promise manifest into such hellishness? Like most things, it didn’t start out that way… or, DID it, and no one was the wiser?
I don’t know the answers but I do know some possibilities leading up to the inevitable. When searching for answers sometimes we look too far when the answer lies within us ourselves. If Newton’s Third Law applies then the first step towards preventing meltdown is not getting into the “wrong” relationship or job or career in the first place. Or more aptly put, the wrong “dream”. But how do we see this coming? How can we have more clarity – mentally, emotionally, physically, spiritually?
DETOX. By removing toxins from your life you will acquire the alertness to fill every core of your being – enabling you to see, feel, taste, smell, hear, sense everything better. Learn to eliminate toxic foods to cleanse your body, toxic thoughts to cleanse your mind, toxic people to restore and preserve your emotional pysche. Toxic buildup of any kind is insidious on many levels and with it comes a host of diseases which I’m sure you don’t want!
It is only with a clear mind, body and spirit that you can go intelligently in the direction your dream.
