What are you willing to give up in order to be, do or have the things in life you wish to be do or have
I once coached a client and in response to one of my questions she said "I'm unwilling to give that up. I refuse to let go of that." And the second she made that statement, I knew that is exactly what we needed to focus on. We talked a bit more and I came back and zeroed in on her unwillingness. Not only did she discover her unwillingness was holding her back, this thing she refused to let go of became the exact thing she discovered she had to let go of as soon as she could in order to do something that was more in alignment with her goals! She just had never thought of it that way. She had convinced herself by her self-talk that it was something she needed in order to move forward, yet she wasn't moving forward. What are you refusing to listen to? What do you refuse to understand?
How does your unwillingness show up in your life? In most instances it's a matter of understanding if I give up A I can then achieve B. Are you willing to let go of time to have more money? Are you willing to let go of money to have more time? Are you willing to listen to suggestions from other people to have a solution you may not have considered? Are you willing to let go of judgment to have a peaceful resolution? Are you willing to let go of ego and see love? Are you willing to let go of unhealthy habits to have self-respect and feel self-worth? Are you willing to give up excuses to find resolutions?
Where is your unwillingness and how is it holding you back? What are you willing to do for the change you desire?
