“If You Don’t Like Where You Are, move! You’re Not a Tree.”

So many times, we feel stuck. In a job, in a relationship, or in the town we live in, stuck in our current circumstances, which are not fulfilling. We feel stuck where we are with no hope of moving on to something else that provides a challenge, contentment, or happiness.  The truth is that we are only as stuck as our mind decides that we are. As people, we have been given the talent to make new choices and take new paths, which lead to new beginnings and an unlimited future of possibilities.

The Problem with Being a Tree

Trees have it rough. They are stuck standing exactly where they were born, day after day, year after year, with no hope of change. This attitude subjects them to the dangers of the weather, as winds blow, snowfalls, and rain pelts them unmercifully throughout the long years of their lives. Many people feel like they are trees as they stand deeply rooted in their beliefs, which many times limit your potential.  We believe there is no other way to be as the winds of life and the world abuses us.

Yet we can move. We can go anywhere we want to go, and we have to choose to go there. Movement allows for new experiences and provides an endless opportunity for growth, and growth is what keeps life interesting. You are not a tree, and you can move away from your past’s deeply rooted limiting beliefs.

Your Choice to Move

What can stop us once we choose to move and take control of our destiny? We can stretch ourselves into a new life, experiencing a new type of energy. We can dance to the music that moves us in our souls. We have the talent to carry anywhere, and by being able to go anywhere, we can do almost anything. You are blessed with the ability to choose your life experience.  It may seem like there are too many details to work out or other blocks to moving along and finding a new situation.  Don’t let them stop you.

If you are unhappy where you stand, then it is time to find a new forest. If you understand your unhappiness and choose to make no changes, you have only yourself to blame for the unhappiness that comes from living in a situation that isn’t kind to you.  You are not a tree, and moving on is always an option.

It Only Makes Sense To Move On

So here, you are living a life that is not making you happy or providing an incredibly fulfilling experience all people deserve.  If you don’t feel appreciated or valued, don’t you think it is time to move to find your value. Not all situations are the same, not all people are mean, and not all people are unappreciative. You are not a tree and can move your life to greener pastures where the water is plentiful and the weather is soft and kind. It is all up to you.  Go out and look for a better tomorrow.

Usually, that journey, no matter how long for you, will start on the inside.  In your soul, which will tell you what you need to be happy.  Moving on is the final step in letting the past go.  Any pain or regret is left in the rearview mirror, where it can’t burden your current mission. You deserve to be happy, and the world needs your gifts, whatever they are.
