You're not stuck, you're actually about to level up. And let me explain why that is the case. When you're on a growth journey. There are still ups and downs. If you think about life, in general, there are always ups and downs. There's undulating waves of experiences. And whether it's good, or whether it's bad. It's just remembering this too shall pass. When you're on a growth journey, if you think about a graph, and it's got a wave that goes up and down going across the page on a growth journey, the down because that graph is actually going up, upward trajectory. The down is actually more like a flat spot, what Jim Rohn calls enjoying the plateau. So after up level, things flatten out. Now whether you're at that point where maybe you don't feel like you're growing much and and it feels more like a dip, the store is gonna be an up, there's always an up, there's always a down. That's just how things go from, from energy waves to sound to life to circumstances. But it's a great way to think about it, isn't it that you're not stuck, you're not going backwards, you're actually just about to level up, things are falling into place for you. When you go on these journey, whether you believe in a spiritual nature to the universe or not. What what is true is the universe is conspiring to give you what it is that you desire. They might feel like wow, I've tried all these different things. But why haven't I got what I've got there's a whole level of reasons why that could be true. However, if you focus on what's coming on the next rise, and make peace with that, remove that resistance, remove that holding total holding so tight, remove that desperate energy and allow things to unfold nicely. Then the apple comm whatever you're going through will pass and you move to the next level. One of the keys of the growth journey of the healing journey of the expansion journey is to be able to hold your nerve through those flat spots or what can sometimes feel like a down spot. So how do we do that? Well, having support is a key part. Having strategies to stay calm, another key area. And for me, those two things in particular have had such a massive impact on my life, that ability for me to have that focus and calm through meditation. And again, if meditation is something you've been challenged with, just pausing long enough to stop and consciously breathe, to slow down long enough to to turn off from all the noise from all the connection, the artificial connection and actually hear or feel or get a sense from that intuitive side of you your instincts. Your gut, that part of your brain that just gives you ideas out of nowhere. And having that support someone in your corner to just help you help remind you help you have a safe space to to vent and unload anything's going on so that as you go through the dip or the plateau, that you get through it in a way that you've already got moment. Tim, when the when the UP,

UP of that next rise, the up part of the rise actually comes.

Relief right. To know that you're about to go up again, you're not stuck, you're not in a hole. Keep doing what you've been doing. It's been working, it's got you to this point, you wouldn't have come to this point without it. So relax, and then look forward to what's coming next. Because no matter what you think it might be two things. One is, you're going to remember as you go on next path, what you did last time, on an upward trajectory, you're still playing too small, you're still capable of way more than what you think. And the other thing is to remember that while you focus further off, down the path on what's coming, you can just move through the current situation with a real ease with with calm because you're not caught in the now and whatever's going on for now. So get out ahead of it. Think about what's coming, allow it to unfold, and enjoy the ride.
