Breakdowns Are POWERFUL!
When my clients are trying to wrap their heads around what I call in business coaching "breakdowns" they start to think of a nervous breakdown. While a nervous breakdown is actually a type of breakdown it is quite dramatic from what we mean by breakdown in general.
Breakdowns and breakthroughs exist with each other. You can't have one without the other. Like night with day, 2 sides of a coin, etc.
So what is a breakdown?
A breakdown is anything that gets in the way of what you say you're committed to. The actual commitment you make produces the breakdown. So there's nothing inherently good or bad about them. You want them because they're cemented to breakthroughs.
The ordinary person can't create breakthroughs because they reject them by refusing to accept the breakdown it's attached to.
You deal with breakdowns in 3 steps...
1. When you notice that circumstances are occurring to you in such a way where you can see that you're not going to get what you're committed to -declare a breakdown while giving up your focus on trying to change your circumstances.
2. Engage in the inquiry: "What's missing -the presence of which would make a difference?" or "What can I add, create, or invent that would have what I'm committed to naturally manifest?" Speculate and write out as many "missings" as you can.
3. Pick one of your "missings" and take ACTION on it right away.
I wish you many breakdowns today and this next week so you can experience amazing breakthroughs!
Coach George
