If you're frustrated with lack of progress that frustration might be what's setting you back and making things take even longer - ie during a recent transformation game that frustration meant:

• I ended up in places I didn’t want to be (wasting time as I had to backtrack or cut across boggy moorland to get back on track!)
• I didn’t take time out (because I wanted to make things happen and get there NOW and then as a result get tired and lost my enthusiasm and creativity)
• I didn't take time to really listen to my intuition (so I made silly decisions)
• I rushed ahead (missing crossroads I should have turned off at)
• I got anxious (a mindset not supportive of making great decisions or actions)

See the video below for how this pattern made itself know whilst out walking recently and in this post about who had the most patience me or a heron!

My name is Alison Smith and for 25 years I’ve used nature and metaphor to help you see the wood for the trees, get out of the rut, stop going round in circles, turn a corner and shift from not knowing to knowing what to do.

There’s posts, poems, blogs, Landscaping Your Life YouTube channel, Landscaping Your Life with Alison smith podcast episodes (my own and as a guest), a Landscaping Your Life newsletter, ezine, pdfs (there’s even one on helping you see the wood for the trees), two books (Can't see the wood for the trees - landscaping your life to get back on track and Your Prescription for Wellbeing Journal) all sharing insight to help you when you’re overwhelmed, stuck or lost.
