What is holding you back

Had coffee with a good friend today who helped me crystallise my thoughts on where I want to go with my Life.
Whilst expressing my frustrations with all the barriers in the way of me getting to where I need to be, he asked the question;
“What is holding you back?”
Of course I came up with all the reasons I couldn’t achieve what I wanted.
“Do you really want to change?”
He went straight to the issue.
Was I day dreaming or really wanting to change direction and look over the horizon.
He then reminded me of the mantra that I often quote that he retain to help him set a new course for his Life.
“If you want things you have never had, you will have to do things you have never done.”
All the obstacles I had identified were real but not insurmountable.
Sometimes we need the objective ‘friend’ to help clear the fog of our thinking and gives the insights we often have buried under all the baggage we carry around.
Nothing is holding me back from achieving my dreams other than me.
Tomorrow is the first day of the new plan to get over that horizon.

Very good. We usually are our own worst enemies!

Love it Mick. We all have those lazy(ier) days. It's actually ok to take a bit of time out for reflection and regrouping your thoughts and ideas - as long as it's only occasionally. I've had a couple of "first days" which led to a new theme and a couple of other changes to my site. I'm trying to think who said your friend's mantra, Jim Rohn?

Actually I came up with that myself. I am an ardent student of Rohn and probably create from one of Jim's great thoughts.
Glad you liked the post.

Even when you experience a 'setback' you can start again. Good luck with tomorrow.
