How to Get Unstuck: Do This to Create the Future You Want

[@conleyangel]

I'm glad you made this video it reminds me of my transformation from a nobody to good home, $34k monthly and a good daughter full of love ❤️❤️

[@malijahpioch]

I'm feeling motivated, could you share some details about the bi-weekly topic you brought up?

[@conleyangel]

I raised 75k and Claudia Ann Brandon is to be thanked. I got my self my dream car 🚗 just last weekend, My journey with her started after my best friend came back from New York and saw me suffering in dept then told me about her and how to change my life through her. Claudia A Brandon is the kind of person one needs in his or her life! I got a home, a good wife, and a beautiful daughter. Note!:: this is not a promotion but me trying to make a point that no matter what happens, always have faith and keep living!!

[@ilavey]

Wow 😱 I know her too miss Claudia Ann Brandon is a remarkable individual whom has brought immense positivity and inspiration into my life.

[@siretr]

Can't imagine earning $85,000 biweekly, God bless Ms Claudia Ann Brandon , God bless America 🇺🇸♥️

[@siretr]

I started my trade with $5000, and in the space of one month I got credited with $22,000. It remains my biggest win for the year 2024

[@grandmajan6]

Awesome info! 72-year-old grandma and have been stuck off and on throughout life. Big Takeaway is to experiment with what you like to do Experimenting with different ideas and taking the pressure off. Really appreciate this podcast at this time in my life. Thank you.

[@skatergirl1759]

Ugh thank you so much for your perspective I'm just 19 but I completely agree💖

The breakdown: 1. Intentional Pause: Take deliberate breaks, like sitting by running water in a forest, to rejuvenate your mind and body. Even a five-minute pause can be restorative. 2. Engage with Nature: Find a patch of nature or incorporate natural elements into your surroundings. Small plants or a water fountain at home can provide similar benefits if you can't access a forest. 3. Daily Practice: Spend a few minutes daily absorbing your natural environment, no matter how small. This practice counters the energy drain of modern life. 4. Impact of Colors: Colors influence mood and behavior. Blues and greens are calming, while red can make you feel strong and dominant. Use this knowledge to create supportive environments. 5. Mirrors and Self-Reflection: Mirrors make you more introspective and thoughtful, helping deter bad habits by forcing you to confront your actions. 6. Time Dilation through Engagement: Activities that stretch time, like being in nature or having meaningful conversations, help you feel more connected and less rushed. 7. Physical Activity: Movement can reset your sense of time and provide a break from a sedentary, screen-focused lifestyle, enhancing well-being. 8. Clutter-Free Environment: Reduce workspace clutter to enhance focus and creativity. A clear environment reduces distractions and improves productivity. 9. Screen Time Boundaries: Set specific times daily to disconnect from screens, reclaiming time and improving mental health. An hour without screens can be very beneficial. 10. Recognize and Replace Habits: Identify unfulfilling habits like mindless scrolling and replace them with enriching activities to develop healthier habits and improve your quality of life.

I've listened to many of Mel's podcast episodes, but this is by far the one that spoke directly to me. I just told a friend the other day that I felt stuck. And the idea of friction points that we steer away from is spot on for me. Excellent stuff.

[@mareavoce1272]

Thank you so much Mel! I’ve been wrestling leaving my job for years & have been quietly unhappy. I resigned the other day because I can’t live like this anymore, found your videos and they’re speaking to exactly how I feel. I know I’ve got so much untapped creative talent. I need to focus on that now & see where it takes me. It is both scary and energising.

[@d20a55]

Omg! I’m in this situation exact situation- where I started a new job with a higher salary - I was very excited and still am but I’m feeling stuck and drained. It was good to hear that people can feel stuck even with good changes.

[@JeremyIglehart]

It’s happened to me. And it feels like pretty much every time, but life-quakes also sometimes travel in packs… so who knows what actually happened way back when. Hang in there, you can figure it out!

[@mickeyhabeck9472]

I noticed that twice your guest looked directly at the audience and gave the very important information. I’ll probably rewatch this podcast with a piece of paper to write the info down. I love these podcasts. Thank you, Mel!!

[@vickimooredotco]

I liked that too. I felt like he was saying hey! Listen to this!

[@KmartList]

The problem for some of us is when we become a little too preoccupied with those “motivating activities “ such as the marathon example and as a result we procrastinate instead of getting the confidence boost and moving forward towards the”ultimate “goal which we needed encouragement with in the first place. Unintentionally we can create a cycle

[@_beYOUtiful_chaos]

MEL, YOU’RE THE BEST!! 💗 Thank you so much for all your amazing content! 🫶🏼 I’ve been listening/watching your podcast since it first started. You’re so relatable and ALWAYS give the best advice.

[@faisalchauhan6380]

thankyou for this, currently I am stuck in life , with things and I really needed this

[@randorific333]

I've felt stuck for most of my life, mostly re: career. I wanted to be a commercial pilot but couldn't due to hearing loss. I "fell into" a legal assistant career. I didn't really enjoy most aspects of it. In 2017, at the age of 58, I visited London & wanted to live there permanently. The only way to move there permanently was to change my career. I enrolled in a digital animation course in London. I was thrilled to finally have a sense of direction & no longer felt stuck. The Nov. 2019 intake was delayed due to low enrollment, so they put me in the June 2020 intake. COVID happened, the course was cancelled & I moved back to America. (They no longer offer the course.) I've been stuck ever since. I'm almost 66 years old. I don't want to go back into the legal field. It's soul draining. I don't have a car; can't afford one, so I've been looking for remote work, but it's been tough.

[@Isabella-h3c]

You could try to learn a skill you like, on the internet, it's possible to learn almost any skill from the internet. Even high value skills, if you find a remote job you're interested in, you can learn the skill online and apply. Digital animation is definitely one you can learn online even on youtube. With AI (e.g. Sora from Open AI, for creating short videos) its even easier to create or learn about things and putting it out there with social media is easier than ever. Or you can even sell short animations, which could be used by companies or so, on digital platforms. I hope I could provide a little bit of a different perspective. If you have something you want to learn and don't know how to start you can get back to me I would be happy to help, or ask ChatGPT or google. Hope you have a great day!

[@randorific333]

@@Isabella-h3c Thanks for the reply. Since posting that, I've decided to move to London. Thus, any future career will need to be something I can do remotely on my own time, working for a US employer. I won't be eligible for UK residency for 5 years & won't be able to work for a UK employer until that time. Any suggestions?

[@disappearingink1354]

💡 the friction points conversation was so eye-opening for me and explains why just filling up my time with fun activities wasn't making me feel any less stuck. You can spend time and energy dodging the negative stuff, but it will still be there, weighing on you, so better to face it head on and hopefully resolve it.

[@nicholeschock8522]

Yes. Can and do get stuff done. I am tackling further education and I am taking more classes. Taking steps towards the life I desire. Something I am struggling with is letting go of unhealthy relationships. That is a tough one for me. I maneuver around the relationship like it is my fork in the road. It is exhausting, but I will not put my progress on hold.

I just want to do something meaningful in life, do something I love, and have been struggling to find my purpose in life. Have had so many business ideas but they remain just that . Also currently living in a city that is full of consumerism and display of wealth makes it more depressing. I dont know what to do anymore, its a daily struggle to just figure out something that will work.

[@soulfulsue2378]

Hello, I read your message and just wanted to reach out to you. I understand your struggle I have been in the same position. I also understand that being in an environment where wealth seems abundant, but not for you is very depressing. The one thing that pops out for me is learning to be yourself and accepting where you are in life. This is very difficult to do I know, but it does help. We must trust and have faith that our time will come. Right now is the time for healing and resting. I wish you all the best.❤

Dr alter speaking off Smoothing put the rough places reminds me of this scripture...

I would recommend picking up a job in the trades. Ive seen women electricians, so dont think its only for one gender. My dad lived all his life working in restaurants either server or manager. But the problem is he never brought home enough money. He gave up on his teaching degree and never went back to try anything else. I am a plumber that makes close to 30/hr and about to get another license with a raise. You just have to get out there and find a job you can move up in and learn. Of course my job is hard. But i have purpose pushing me forward. I can open up my own business in the next 5 years.
