#152: The Power of Difficult Conversations

In this mindset episode, we are talking about the concept of difficult conversations. 

2020 has been a year of difficult conversations and massive changes.  For some people this year has been an inconvenience and for some, it has been a year of massive change and transformation. When all the layers (distractions) peeled back this year and we went into isolation, we came face to face with what wasn’t working.  We were spending so much time being busy in distraction and we are avoiding facing what isn’t working…between relationships, work, health, and any other area of our lives.  This is nudging or forcing us to have difficult conversations with others and ourselves. What if this is a time that is a gift to show us what is working, the path we can follow, and what we can create in our lives?

In this episode, we discuss:

1. Go inward and ask yourself what is working and what isn’t working. Look for the alarm bells, look for what brings you joy and how can you put more joy in your life?
2. Be willing to have difficult conversations with yourself. Ask different questions such as “what is this doing for me?”
3. Focus on what you can control and that is the time that is right in front of you in the present moment. What changes or decisions can you make that will bring you more of what to experience in your life?
4. Are you keeping yourself to avoid having difficult conversations with yourself or others? Be aware of the distractions you are creating.
5. Manage (release) your expectations, your self-care, and what you need to do, add or remove from your day that can help you be your best self.
6. Be aware of the energy you are wasting “waiting” to make the “right decision”. We tend to waste a ton of energy trying to make a decision.  Refer to episode #103 The Energy of Making Decisions, https://apple.co/3gqoE9c
