🦸 Our brain is a prioritizing superhero. It helps us prioritize that which will keep us alive.

⚠️ This also means it considers fears as impediments to our survival.

🦁 We no longer have lions and other predators chasing us in the bush but your brain still assesses every threat with the same severity as a lion trying to munch down on you

😱 So it stops you from pushing past the fear. It prioritizes the fear so, in its way, it can keep you alive.

🔬 But when you live through the lens of fear your actions are fuelled by those fears.

🔚 We cannot eliminate fear but we can learn to live in spite of it.

🧘‍♀️ One way to prioritize your task instead of fear is to give your mind a strong visual representation of what accomplishing your tasks looks like.

🥳 What success feels like. Tastes like. Show your mind that the end goal is pleasurable. Full of strong victory emotions. Feel the excitement finishing the task will bring as if it's already happened.

🚶‍♀️ This will show your mind that it's pleasurable and your mind will move you towards it.

🫡 The same way it helps you push past pain when you're getting a tattoo because the result is worth more than the discomfort.

DISCOMFORT . As a collective we’re experiencing our shadow showing up aggressively in our face saying pay attention to me. . During these times it’s often easier to want to walk or run away and hide, to pretend it’s not real, to ignore the discomfort. . Here’s the thing though, true transformation doesn’t happen in ignoring the hard and dark things, it comes when we sit in those moments, when we stare the discomfort head on and say this sucks and it awkward and uncomfortable but I’m going to stay and do the work anyway. . Life isn’t all joy and happiness and light all the time, it also isn’t anger and sadness and darkness all the time. It’s a messy combination of both and we have to as humans be willing to experience the full range of emotions. . Listen white friends, I know this work we’re doing is hard. It might be brining you shame and discomfort. GOOD. It should. But the appropriate response isn’t to ignore it or pretend it isn’t happening. . The appropriate response is to get uncomfortable. Educate yourself on white supremacy. Educate yourself on the ACTUAL history of America. Learn all the ways it’s broken. Pay Black people for their labor. Then start working to dismantle those systems. . Educate your white friends and family members. Challenge them. Have uncomfortable conversations. Do research on the places you spend your money at, go out of your way to avoid places that use prison labor or that donate to shitty causes and spend money at Black owned businesses. . We can’t dismantle the imperialist white supremacist capitalist heretopatriarchal system we live in it we’re unwilling to sit in this transformative period. . We can’t achieve it if we’re unwilling to see our flaws, listen and learn, acknowledge our mistakes and seek out opportunities for growth and DO THE WORK to make that shift happen. . . . . #discomfortzone #discomfortisgrowth #discomfort #growthmindset #transformation #growthmindset🌱 #transformationthursday #shadowwork #shadow #getuncomfortable #dothework #challengeyourselfdaily #blm #dismantlewhitesupremacy #dismantleracism #dismantlethepatriarchy #smashthepatriarchy #smashcapitalism #smashwhitesupremacy (at Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBoOBQZDjlK/?igshid=106kxebf8ev8k

I woke up to this message. If not without anger, without fear, without discomfort Nothing Changes. So that’s the best place to finally get to, Because Change is Necessary. “No Tenemos Miedo, Tenemos RABIA!” Ready. 📍Tapachula, Chiapas Mexico 🇲🇽 • • • • • • #Sunshine #fearless #empowerment #tapachula #growth #challenges #lifestyle #discomfortzone #grassisgreener #travelphotography #traveler #travelersnotebook #travelingram #graffiti #changeisgood (at TAPACHULA, Chiapas, México, City.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQriGo_DWtQ/?utm_medium=tumblr

⚡️Creativity isn’t something that just strikes you when it feels like it. It is a habit you can cultivate. A muscle you can train.

🛑 Yet very often we see the “lack” of creativity as a reason to halt what we need to do. We use it as an excuse to put things on the back burner

🔋 Yes, your environment can be a cause for inspiration that activates creativity but unless you turn it into a sustainable repeatable habit you aren’t truly harnessing the power of your creativity.

🗓️ Your mind simply needs structure. Gather inspiration through out your week but time block 30 minutes a day to work on the outcome of that creativity.

🏋️‍♀️ Combine inspiration, consistent action and a trigger to form inspired action . You discipline the mind by training it to bring out your creativity when you start a chain of triggers.

🕔 For example, every day when your 5 pm alarm goes off playing Vivaldi’s four seasons: spring or the Beatles paperback writer, you write a 1000 words.

‼️ That’s like sending an alert out to your mind going hey! Hey! Hey! Get the engine running it’s time to tap into that endless stream of creativity and give it form

🧞‍♂️ Your mind will soon realize you need to be in flow at that time everyday and make it possible. It is your genie after all.

🚨Now that you know you can train creativity to work for you will continue to chase after it and its flights of fancy or will you choose to watch it show up every day because you invited it to sit with you?

SIT WITH IT . I feel like we so often hear people tell us to sit in our discomfort or to acknowledge and sit with what’s bothering us, but what does that actually look like? . For me it looks like a few different things. . If I’m in a full panic I begin with deep breathing and slowly relaxing all the muscles in my body, noticing where tension arises. . Next, I move on to journaling and asking myself questions. . What am I feeling? What is that feeling bringing up in me? Where does that come from? What can I do to feel safe? . Then I like to sit in meditation even if just for a few minutes to put it all down and get back into my body. . What does it look like for you to sit in your discomfort? . . #sitwithit #discomfortzone #discomfort #blackandwhiteselfie #selfportrait #divinewoman #divinefeminine #wildwoman #divinefeminineenergy #wildwomanrising #divinefemininerising #meditationpractice #wildwomansisterhood #meditate #inked #inkedgirl #anticipatoryanxiety #anxiety https://www.instagram.com/p/CF-DQBQjWHJ/?igshid=17n11031y5ihs

Looking to grow personally or professionally? Take the opportunity to lean into discomfort and push yourself to explore new boundaries! This may lead to failure or falling short of expectations and that’s completely OK. It gives you the opportunity to learn from the experience and grow! Have you leaned into a new challenge lately?

Your friend comes to you and talks about their pain. What is your natural tendency? Be honest.🤪 To escape it. No one wants to be around pain. You want to escape. You want to help them escape the pain too. What do you do?😳 You give advice! But to process pain, we sometimes need to sit through it. We need to be with it. We need to see through the discomfort it brings up. And a friend who can sit with us through pain is rare.😇 Can you be that friend? Do you have such friend? #givingadvice #advice #advicegiver #bewithlife #friendsinlife #soundingboard #discomfortzone #discomfort #lifecoaching (at Santa Monica, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFXHLWKBEbh/?igshid=7a56o6gizlld
