Stuck? Maybe It's Time To Reboot!

"Everyone Needs a Break Now And Then"
.
We all experience times when the task, the moment, or the day just isn't working for us. Perhaps you didn't get enough sleep, or you haven't been eating right, maybe you've been laboring with some troublesome issue, or the body simply is not cooperating.
.
With caffeine, nicotine, or other mind-body boosting agents aside, maybe you simply need to push away from whatever it is that's plaguing you and take a break. It is amazing what a change of scenery or a complete change in thinking can do to nourish and revitalize your mindset.
.
Think for a moment how you can be almost instantaneously transformed when you hear something that strikes you as really funny or you're pulled out of your own thoughts to someone else's experience. A change of thought or place can literally alter that feeling of being stuck.
.
For the person who simply doesn't feel productive or of value if not constantly focusing on a worthwhile task, "pushing away" for awhile can be a real challenge. In fact, the feeling of guilt and wasting precious time undermines the very idea of "taking a break." But, do it anyway!
.
If at first you feel uncomfortable stepping outside your present need to forge ahead (even though you're probably not at the top of your game), do it anyway! This is why we repeatedly hear about people coming back from even a short vacation feeling refreshed and ready to attack their goals with a new outlook.
.
Once you get into the habit of finding out what works for you to "reboot" your mindset, the action will get easier and more effective. Maybe it's a walk around the block, a 30-minute video or DVD that always makes you feel good, or calling someone special. It just takes a little imagination. But, you will discover that when you return to that brick wall you were fighting against, things will definitely look different.
