If something is going wrong in your life and you are not sure what to do about it, remember this: Everyone is entitled to a Coast Period. It’s kind of like being on cruise control. You may be coming out of a long-term relationship or be out of a job. You may be at crossroads in your life with no idea which way to go. During this Coast Period, you need to do some reflecting. Look in the mirror and remember Who You Are and what you want for yourself. Don’t make any spontaneous or irrational decisions, and don’t go crawling back to the old boyfriend or girlfriend just because you feel lonely and insecure.
Be strong and try not to focus too hard on the past or the future. You have to be living in the present and accepting of what IS. Give yourself time to just BE. And trust that all the answers to your questions will show up in time. Don’t put a time limit on it. Use this time to OBSERVE… and make sure you surround yourself with positive loving people whether they are friends, family, or even pets. Have support embracing you, and keep on living. Usually the best things in life come to us much easier than we think they will, and usually they happen when we least expect them; when we are relaxed, and ENJOYING life.
Also remember that: you are never alone… ever… and you ARE going to make it through this. I’ve recently been told, “Things just have a way of working themselves out.” So be open and receptive to ALL possible outcomes. Allow things to unfold in ways you hadn’t imagined, and know that everything will be okay.
