Stuck?

What is stuck?

We all know, yet the answer is illusive. It can be an unfinished item on a ToDo list, a postponed decision for no apparent reason, an inappropriate reaction to a momentary thought, or the abrupt interruption of feelings of incompetence, unworthiness or foolishness. It often is far worse.

Stuck? Move!

What is Move!? It is innate skill. It is how: Experience modifies beliefs created by old experience. It quiets distress, elaborates our values and develops valuable intuitions about ourselves and the world around.

It happens continuously without effort or conscious thought. We can improve our skills and give conscious direction to our motion.

"But I Can't"

Stuck? Move! “But I Can’t”

When we can’t, we are stuck in an unchanging experience. Because it never changes, it proves a narrow truth. We experience these narrow truths as limiting beliefs. How do I set unchanging experiences in motion and dispel limiting beliefs? Move!

Learning Goals Alleviate Depression

Learning Goals v Self Worth Goals

Eric Barker:

(d) A key to alleviating depression is fostering a shift from self-worth goals to learning goals and from the beliefs underlying self-worth goals to the opposite beliefs.

Points (a), (b) and (c) are just as interesting.

It's all about context, man.

For more discussion, see: Growth Needs Context.

[Much of my writing focuses on our three primary domains of drive and motivation - Achievement, Social Relationships, Knowledge - ASK. This quote is about Knowledge.]
