The second stage for moving forward involves recognizing the roadblocks keeping us from growing that are in the way of our happiness, progress and goals.

Here are some roadblocks which can come in the way of moving forward

• Uncertainty about the future
• Distractions/ Lack of focus/ Lack of Clarity
• Low self-esteem/ lack of self-care
• Less determination/ Lack of motivation/ Lack of willpower/ Procrastination
• External/ Environmental influence/ Difficulty to accept the change
• Past unpleasant experience/ Past unhealed trauma/ Setbacks from tried methods in the past
• Intrusive thoughts when making a decision/ Negative thoughts or view on life/ Unable to focus on positive aspects/ Overthinking

And so on..

It’s okay to have roadblocks in our way! Let’s take some time to reflect on these roadblocks by answering the questions given below!

• What is a current situation/challenge that is out of your control impacting you? Feel free to write as much or as little as you want.
