The wall

 “Just Do It” is well known to be the trademark of Nike.  Yet, have you ever felt that it is easier said than done? Have you ever walked around feeling like you are surrounded by a brick wall?  Have you ever wondered where it all came from and considered the impossibility of just doing whatever ‘it’ might be?   

​The most likely explanation is that it all began with a little bit of doubt and fear. We can often be unaware when it all started and at times even unaware as to when we started to collect the bricks to build the wall.  
 
When we get caught up in the spiral of emotions that tangle us; unaware we begin to build the wall brick by brick. The heaviness grows and we start to feel weak.  At first the wall may seem to be protectective. However, overtime it does more harm and our heart no longer seems to be able to communicate with our mind.  Then what was once fog builds up to be a cloud that hinders our thinking and interrupts our awareness to self and surroundings.  
 
If you are tired of living trapped within these walls and are looking for a way forward; then the following are some simple, yet powerful steps to consider –
  • Seek professional assistance
  • Start to look at the day with thanksgiving
  • Look to journey with someone who will support you as you take the bricks down one by one
  • Don’t judge, blame or seek revenge
  • Learn self-compassion
  • Begin to forgive yourself
  • Begin or continue to forgive those who have wronged you
  • Look for the positive in yourself
  • Ensure you have a person you trust to assist you with clearing up the rubble
 
In order to do “it” we must first know who we are and what “it” is we are wanting to do. More importantly who we desire to be as we learn to understand and overcome the loneliness and fear.
