You Unstuck

Are you finished with the storyline you are telling yourself and others about how the recent economic trauma has adjusted your life and dreams? Are you ready to get unstuck? Can you imagine a life with You Unstuck?

This month’s AM AZ book segment, which will air live on Tuesday, October 12 at 10 a.m. PST, will feature You Unstuck by Libby Gill. I think it’s the right book for right now. As a country we are a year into the economic adjustment. Twelve months is a figurative and literal cycle in psychological adjustment. Figuratively because it signifies transitioning through the four seasons of growth: Winter going dormant, Spring planting and budding, Summer growth and Fall harvest.

Literally because a year is 12 months!

Gill has boiled down the steps of getting You Unstuck into a three-word process: Clarify, Simplify, and Execute. The words really do speak for themselves. From the different areas of your life, to your thinking patterns, to your willingness to accept risk, she offers questions, assessments and exercises to get You Unstuck. She uses the latest findings in the neurosciences to support the processes she provides.

For anyone with money issues, I strongly recommend her Chapter 9 Mind Over Money. The chapter takes you through a self-examination of your spending style, your mindset and offers a step-by-step tracking system. It is a perfect example of her Clarify, Simplify, and Execute model. It challenges you to track your spending, really grasp where your cold hard cash is going, and execute a new way of thinking and behaving by making different choices that work better for you and your current financial situation.

As I stated above, I think the timing of this book is perfect. Too early in the cycle of trauma and you would not be able to comprehend where you are or how you got there. You needed time to see how you might have contributed to your situation before you can design a plan to adjust your behavior and mindset.

As we transition into the beginning of another year, hopefully you are ready to get out of your story and into new possibilities. There is no time better than the present to get You Unstuck.
