142: Building Resilience

Episode 142:  This week on the show I talk about resilience, moving through the hard stuff and staying on track pushing through to your dreams. I hope that it serves you. Transcript: You’re listening to Episode 142 of The Art of Living bag. All right, so today’s show was, so here’s the thing is that I have like this list as things come to me, I’m like, Oh, I could talk about that I could talk about that on the show. And then today, I sat down, and I was like, none of this really feels good to talk about. So I thought, I’m just gonna do a quick meditation, see if it kind of clears my head and see what comes up. And so that’s what I did. So I hope that this shows serves you, we’re going to talk a little bit about resilience and keeping going even when things aren’t going the way you think. Because I’ll tell you things never go the way you think, just doesn’t work out that way. And so if we can kind of release, the need to be perfect, right, and the need to like, move through everything perfectly and have no problems never fall down and don’t fail. And if we do fail, it’s magical. Right? That ain’t the way it really works. So I’ve got some thoughts for you today. I hope that it serves you. I want to also let you know, that no limits this month has been really, really cool. We’ve got some good stuff cooking. And if you’re interested just in getting on the list for the pre notifications, I’m probably gonna run it again like late spring. So if you want to be on that list, then go ahead and just go to my website. Go to Betsy Pake comm backslash, no limits and just put yourself on the waitlist, so no pressure to join us when it’s time, but that way, you’ll get the early release stuff. So Alright, you guys, let’s go to this show. Welcome to the art of living big. I’m your host, Betsy Pake. And this podcast is designed to share interviews and new ideas to help you redefine what could be possible for your life. Now, let’s go live big. Hey, everybody, welcome to the show. All right. So in beach, I did a little meditation. And so now we’re here, what is it that you need to hear? So whenever we start something new, when we’re starting the New Year, or you start new plans, or you have new ideas for stuff, you know, you get going and you’re super focused, and you tend to see some changes right in the beginning. And then what happens is that things sort of reach a lull, right things dip down, and things kind of get to where they feel normal. Now, it could be that this moment is the same moment that you had before where things felt really great. But you start to get used to it. So the really great becomes normal. And it doesn’t seem quite as exciting anymore. And it doesn’t seem as if you’re really making the progress you want it to. And so you sort of swing backwards, it’s almost like a pendulum, right. So I swing forward, I get some momentum. But then I kind of swing backwards into old patterns and the old way that things have been. And mostly that’s because that’s what feels really comfortable. Like, my brain really likes that. And I think of my brain like being a record player. And I put the needle down and then record just plays and plays, it plays based on the grooves that are already there. Right. And so if those grooves are really deep, like if those group grooves are years and years and years old,
