Hitting resistance? This weeks newsletter is for you!

Issue 10

Good morning.

In this weeks Donnelly Mindset we’re going to talk about what happens when we hit resistance. How do we overcome it? What do we do to conquer this feeling?

We’ll discuss the signs of hitting resistance and how you will be able to overcome this feeling when it arises.

Key signs that show you are hitting resistance;

  • Imposter syndrome

  • You feel like your not good enough

  • You feel you lack knowledge

  • Ready to give up

When we hit resistance, this is usually a good sign you are in the right place. After all, we are all striving to become the best version of ourselves!

Do you ever get that feeling creeping in saying ‘I’m not good enough’?

Why am I doing this? Do I even know what I’m doing?

If this is the case you're definitely on the right track! You just need to keep believing in yourself and pursuing your goals, push yourself past that feeling of resistance.

Imposter syndrome?

For those who don’t know what this is, It’s that voice that tells you shouldn’t be doing what you are doing, you are not good enough and why would someone want to listen to you?

This is why most people quit when pursuing their dream life, you have to remember we are all human and the only way to learn is to take the first step and just start!

When you get this feeling, remember you are good enough, you will pursue your dream life and if you have the will to succeed, no one will stop you.

I’m going to share with you a great example of this.

Do you know what it is?

Yes, that’s right!

It’s myself, writing this newsletter.

I’ve always struggled with writing, but I love to read and learn. So I’ve decided to keep on writing this newsletter so I can share my journey with you all, every step of the way.

Writing this newsletter will allow me to overcome the feelings of imposter syndrome, at the same time I’ll be able to improve my skills, gain knowledge and connect with my audience by sharing my journey.

How do I get past the resistance feeling and stay on track?

We all have days when we feel like giving up.

But don’t give up!

You deserve the life you desire, you just need to see the benefits of getting past resistance to reach your full potential.

Resistance is a sign that you are growing. So how do we get past this?

The first step is to remember why you started in the first place. This will be your motivation to keep you focused and driven.

Secondly, what are your reasons for becoming successful?

What impact do you want to have on the world?

Who are you doing it for?

Do you wish to provide for your family and give them the best life possible?

Do you want to be able to travel the world whilst building your business?

For me personally, I plan to build a business so I can provide for my family, travel the world and live on my terms.

Finally, you need to have vision and believe in yourself.

Working with a mentor

Why have I mentioned this at the end?

Working with mentor will help you overcome these feelings. When you feel lost they will be there to pick you up and help you regain focus. Sometimes just talking with someone who is willing to listen takes a big weight off your shoulders.

Having a coach is good for accountability. If you feel like you lose sight and take your foot off the gas when you hit resistance, then hiring a coach is for you!

Right, that’s it for this weeks newsletter. 😃
