The Problem with Mindset Solutions

How long have you spent looking for the thing that is going to solve all your problems? The thing that will take away all your wobbles, doubts and self-sabotages. Resolve all resistance, perfectionism and procrastination. A perfect mindset solution. So what’s the problem with mindset solutions?

There isn’t a perfect solution. No quick fix, magic bullet or six-step system that is guaranteed to work for everyone. We’ve fallen into a trap of thinking there is only one way [we are sold it so much on the internet].

Instead, there are two key things to remember when talking about mindset solutions.

Mindset

Firstly, your mindset isn’t something to be fixed because it is not broken.

Your mind is operating as best it can in a way it believes will help to keep you safe. It is not trying to sabotage you. Though it can certainly feel like self-sabotage. The things you are doing, whether that’s resisting, overthinking or blocking the results, come from your subconscious mind as the best option you have.

One of my pet peeves with some practices is the sole focus on the bad. I can’t say if bringing them to the surface is enough to clear them or not.

What I believe is that we need to give our subconscious other options. Better options. More empowered and positive options. Highlight different choices we can make and how they would produce the outcomes we desire. And this is true whether we are talking marketing in business or getting healthier.

Solutions

Secondly, EFT isn’t a mindset solution. Hypnosis isn’t a mindset solution. Even coaching isn’t a solution.

These are tools and techniques. Practices and strategies to help us deal with what comes up. NOT solutions.

Stop looking for a ‘solution’.

When you change the intention from looking for a fix to looking for ways to manage your symptoms (those behaviours to cope with your fears) it takes the pressure off. We aren’t going to change overnight. Suddenly be free of all blocks, hesitations, and limiting thoughts. There’s no pressure to be perfect from now on.

The Problem with Mindset Solutions

It’s unrealistic to expect what you’ve lived with all these years, those beliefs and fears that have so far done a pretty good job of keeping you safe are going away quickly.

Life isn’t a once a done. It’s a continual evolution. Change. Grow. Repeat. But if we keep repeating the same thoughts and feelings we are going to create the same outcome. If we keep viewing failure as a bad thing we are going to beat ourselves up.

I think we also need to believe something is going to work. Or at least not disbelief. If you don’t believe that RTT, Chakra Clearing or whatever method is going to work, then it probably won’t. Instead, allow yourself to experiment. Try different things with an open mind and curiosity. And remember you don’t need to be fixed and anything can work easily.
