One of the main purposes of pain in our lives, both physical and mental, is so we can learn from it.
Learn how to eliminate the cause, learn from them, and be a wiser stronger person.
If that is a main purpose, why do we choose to carry it, feel it, and wallow in it for long periods of time, even years.
Carrying pain, revenge, anger, hate, our broken heart, our seemingly lost dreams, our regrets, our sadness, our depression, etc. Has a debilitating effect on us.
It shuts down our thinking beyond the problem and we tend to focus only on what HAS Happened.
In other words––the past.
It is like trying to drive a car while focusing only on the rearview mirror. It does not paint a very desirable future.
It is essentially a “state of being stuck”.
It is a normal and natural result from our life experience.
The good news is, we do not have to remain stuck. Our mind and heart are very capable of focusing forward instead of backward. We just need to be shown how.
When you want to find a way to get over one of Life’s trials, book an exploratory call with me.
Best – Bill Bach
