Possibilities

When feeling stuck, consider the phrase "It's possible that _______" to expand your thinking. This can lead to solutions like delegating work, taking personal time, or reevaluating your career. Whether in personal or professional life, asking "What might be possible?" could lead to surprising discoveries and solutions.

What is possible for your life?

That is a big question.

You don’t have to let it be intimidating though.

Sometimes when I am stuck, or when my clients are stuck, we start to use this simple phrase, “It’s possible that _______”

It opens up your mind just a little bit to things it may not really believe yet.

It’s possible that I might be able to get my charts done by 6pm.

It’s possible that I could start to take Saturday mornings to myself.

It’s possible that I could hire a babysitter a few times a month.

It’s possible that I could go on vacation without my children and they would survive and it would be totally fine.

It’s possible that I could propose solutions that would delegate some of the work I’m doing at home and at work to other people.

It’s possible that I could not spend way too much time on facebook (hehe).

It’s possible that this job is not for me.

It’s possible that I could go part time.

It’s possible that I could learn to be happy again one day.

Whatever kind of thing you are struggling with, in your home life or your professional life, just simply try asking yourself what might be possible?  Maybe, just maybe, it might be possible that _______ .  Then search your brain.  See what it comes up with.  You might just surprise yourself with what might be possible.
