Think about this: When are you most frazzled, stressed, anxious, depressed [insert sad emoji here]? I can assume you are not actively doing something productive and fulfilling, and I can also assume you are most likely sitting down or somewhere stuck in traffic.
Thought leader Marie Forleo says, “Clarity comes from engagement, not thought.” When we are taking action, we can begin to push through the black cloud rather than laying down under it until it passes. We must get up and move our bodies so our minds can connect and refocus and we can find better decision-making opportunities.
Try these actions the next time you begin to feel the dark cloud of uncertainty toppling over you: take a group fitness class, go for a “traffic-less” drive with your favorite music blaring, step outside for a walk with your dog, or meet up for a relaxing coffee date with a friend. Then, return to your past anxieties, and I assume this time, your dark cloud has peeled back to some sunshine of certainty.
