If You Are feeling Trapped By Life, Then Learn How To Take Back Control
Feeling trapped by life is a horrible situation to be in so learn how you can get out of your bad situation and take control back in your life.
Hi Trish Davies, here and I want to ask you if you are feeling trapped by life at the moment? Is there a feeling of this uneasiness about feeling trapped in a situation that you really want to get out of?
This situation may have been brewing up for some months, even before the current pandemic situation. Maybe you really wanted to get out of it before Covid-19, but now Covid-19 has really made it feel more urgent.
You then have a feeling of not being able to be free or not having that sense of freedom. At the end of the day you really want to be out of a situation, whatever aspect of your life that’s being affected.
It's usually a relationship, financial or employment situation. Whatever it is, you feel out of control, not in control, and trapped in that situation. Anxiety creeps in along with stress which is a toxic cocktail that you must deal with. So, are you feeling that level, especially again?
Are Your Finances Making You Feel Trapped By Life?
Let's talk about the finances. You're feeling like the financial walls around your family are starting to crumble. Have you been forced to dip into your reserves if you have them?
I know in this country here we are dipping into funds that are supposed to be for our futures. We are allowed to dip into our superannuation right now which are our retirement funds.
That’s not ideal but sometimes needs must. The trouble is that it feels like our financial firewalls are starting to crumble away and falling down around us. You may be experiencing the same thing at the moment, if through years of hard work, you are in that position to do so.
I am sure that it is similar in many countries around the world. You may be dipping into savings if you have any savings. Unfortunately, there’s a large potion of the population out there that have zero savings.
Therefore, they're living from paycheck to paycheck each week. In this country there is a support mechanism, a safety net in place through a social welfare program. I know there are similar government programs around the world helping people get through this crisis.
The fact is though that these programs won’t last forever. Here in Australia it is due to run out in September, your country could be working to a similar timeframe. All I can say is thank goodness that there is something in place. However, you, I, and everyone else knows that the deadlines dates are looming.
How Does This Make You Feel?
Well, how does that make you feel? I mean, your anxiety levels must be through the roof because you may have a mortgage to pay. Food must be put on the table and if you have children then expenses must be met.
It could be health funds but whatever it is that you've got, you've got those monthly expenses. Many financial institutions around the world have put holiday payment schedules on mortgages and credit cards.
That is great and a short-term relief but the dates for when you must start paying back is getting nearer. There are many households that have lost incomes through the inevitable job losses this pandemic has caused.
Therefore, you may only have one income at the moment. I don’t know about your country but here in Australia a mortgage is a huge expense. Our cost of housing being so high means it's very important to have a two-income family.
Therefore, anxiety levels are at their highest which is something you may be able to relate to. At times like this there is a feeling of hopeless or hopelessness? You might have people that are completely dependent on you and your income within your household. If there are then that can be exhausting for you.
Knowing that you have people around you that are completely dependent on what it is that you do! What you provide in your household. There is this feeling of dependency which can be very draining and very exhausting. Are you feeling confused at the moment?
Have You Got Lots Of Questions That Remain Unanswered?
Have you got lots of questions just looping around in your head at the moment. With all probability it's the same question, but it's asked in a multitude of ways. You are not alone as it is happening daily, time and time again, it's happening all the time to millions of people.
That can be incredibly confusing and exhausting because you're just not getting answers. The more stressed you are, the more tense that you feel. Therefore, the less possibility, or chance you are going to have the answers that address those questions. Those questions or that one question that keeps looping around and around in your head, it creates more and more confusion.
With that confusion, there's a fog which you just can't see through to the other side. Are you simply feeling frustrated? Well, you know that you have value. You know that you can provide so much more. You can provide it in such a better way, and yet you just don't know how to do it. The frustration is that you just don't know how to get out of that situation that you're currently in.
That frustration ties in with the all the other things that I've mentioned about things looping around in your head. Your frustration can cause your body to become tense because you’re just not getting the answers that you need to get. So that frustration becomes more and more intense.
Feeling Trapped By Life Is Sometimes Out Of Your Control
What I'm going to tell you next is really important. I want you to really listen to what I'm going to say right now. You have no control over what is going on externally to you right now.
When I talk about external, I mean, what is going on in your environment? You have no control over that whatsoever. My advice to you right now is in this moment is this. Let it go. You have to let it go. You have no control over the elements, over the environment, over what is happening.
The thing that you do have control over is what is going on internally. You have control over those amazing gifts and talents that you have. These could be gifts and talents that you are fully aware of. Alternatively, they could be gifts and talents that you have no idea about.
These are things that could be hidden so deeply that you have never really, truly discovered them. Sometimes we build up facade over facade, over facade. We become someone for somebody or something. We create and build layers of facade around ourselves that we just don't know any more who we truly are. It takes a process to unravel and pull apart those layers to reveal our true, authentic self.
You Need To Go Through A Process To Realise Just How Valuable You Are
We as an individual sometimes can't get to the core of who we really and truly are. What our gifts, talents are and how much value we have. It does take a process which I have created in my exclusive members training program.
It's incredible as I've seen members completely unravel. It's just amazing to watch and see as I dig deeper through a process. A systemized process of unravelling those facades, stripping them back and truly identifying what it is that is truly, authentic about themselves. Then what they could deliver in such a true, passionate, and exciting way.
It's amazing. That's where certainty is and where you will find certainty, security, enjoyment, and fun. Just by extracting those gold nuggets and through those nuggets that you will find empowerment and independence and choice.
There is a way and a process of overcoming all of that uncertainty, all of those challenges that are possibly holding you back right now. It's everything that's internal to who you are and discovering that. How do you discover that? There are there are processes and ways that can help stripped that apart and help discover who you truly are.
