#63 - "So What's Stopping You?"



Sometimes one simple distinction, one idea or one question can put you on a completely different track.

Reading Hypnosis for Running by Adam Eason I came across such a question. It's a question which he suggests you ask yourself when you have a goal that has not yet been achieved:

"So what's stopping you?"

Eason posits that the answers to this question can reveal any unconscious limiting beliefs which may be holding you back.

"Our actions may be impeded...but there can be no impeding our intentions or dispositions. Because we can accomodate and adapt. The mind adapts and converts its own purposes the obstacle to our acting. The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way."
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations




What's stopping you?
