What's stopping you?

This week’s coaching question is “What’s stopping you?”?
What’s stopping you from doing that thing you want to do?
Recently I had a discussion on this with several women and here’s what we found out:
What’s stopping you from going to the beach after the day is done???
What’s stopping you from writing that mystical prose poetry book you’ve always wanted to write???
It’s surprising what answers you get when you simply ask “What’s stopping me?”? You will find that what is stopping you is an illusion.? It’s a phantom barrier.??
The way to dissolve phantom barriers is to recognize they exist.? Phantom barriers only have power when you believe they don’t exist; they hide in the dark.??
Once you look the phantom in the eye, it no longer has power over you because you have exposed it to the light.?
Nothing can stay in the dark when you shine the light on it.??
So, ask yourself “What’s stopping me?”?
Then listen.?
Your wise mind will respond.
See what answer arrives for you.?
Lean into what it tells you.?
Then, you’ll find your way.?
