You’re probably wondering – how could you benefit from something you don’t want?
One of the things that spurs us to make change is the sense that something isn’t quite right.
It makes perfect sense that the knowledge of what you don’t want opens the door to discover a new and better way of being.
At her first session with me, a recent client was vehemently describing all the things in life that she didn’t want, and wasn’t happy with. The conversation circled these things like a buzzard around roadkill, seemingly with no way out.
When we shifted to discussing what she DID want, a light-bulb moment was born.
“Oh. I’d better think about that!”
The wonderful thing is that dissatisfaction opens the door for change, and by flipping our dissatisfaction 180 degrees, we might actually find out what we really want more of…and then we can reach for that with open arms.
