Ep. 38: Tangled Thoughts
I know what it feels like to wear a lot of hats in creative entrepreneurship and feel like the head that’s wearing the hat has too much in it. Most of my members join us with a flavour of this happening so I help them empty it all out for focus and clarity. You’ve probably heard of journaling and maybe even Thought Downloading which is the term coined by the coaching school I trained at. Basically, it’s writing down the thoughts in your head as a way of releasing them from your brain and giving them some space and light to be seen and dealt with on purpose. As perfectionists and/or people pleasers we can get stuck in our heads about getting the words out of our heads so today’s episode is going to show you there is no perfect way of doing it whilst offering useful guidelines to pick and choose from. You’ll learn: 1, Thoughts are not facts. They are optional sentences where you are trying to make meaning of your life and keep yourself safe. 2, Writing down thoughts bring them more into your awareness so you can consciously choose or create the ones you want to take direction from. 3, You don’t have to act on every thought in your head. 4, Being in conversation with the thoughts in your head via writing on the page is how you can change your relationship with conditioned beliefs that don’t serve you in the here and now.
