Spinning Out of Control...

By
Education & Training with Sparta Success Systems


Have you ever felt like you're spinning out of control?

Overwhelmed


It can feel like things are going too fast, or that there is this constant state of panic just under the surface, or that anxiety is your most prevalent emotion.  It can also feel like massive overwhelm and shut down.  All of these point to the energy of spinning.I say "the energy" because that's what it is.

It's an energetic that you're engaging that causes you to spiral.  It's just like panic in that it takes hold of you and keeps you in the cycle until you can jolt yourself out of it.

The key is not to engage the energy.

  • So if you're stressed about how much work you have to do - stop thinking about the big picture and focus only on what you have to do right now and then celebrate the completion of each item as you go.
  • If you're worried about your relationship, stop playing out horrible scenarios or memories in your head and focus on what is actually real in front of you right now.
  • If you're worried about your health, eat right, see your doctor (acupuncturist, chiropractor, dentist, etc.), and get some exercise.
  • If your past is haunting you, stop tell yourself and everyone else the story.  Refuse to give it space in your present world.

If you can't do anything about whatever is bothering you, let it go and trust that it will be OK.

If you can do something about it, stop sitting in dread and fear and go deal with it.

But whatever you do, identify the source of the spin and stop it.

The key to being undercontrol stems from a belief there is a way out.  Either by your techniques or others that will work.

Good infomative post. Of course, the answers are usually in front of us. If we would concentrate on the situation or others then 'self' would not haunt us.

Good points, both.  Doug - there are also often underlying beliefs or issues that can cause people to not be able to focus on others.  It's not often that simple.  But with the right approach, even the most intractable worrier can find peace.
