Not too long ago, I found myself feeling a little bored with all the podcasts I was listening to, all the coaches and experts I was following, all the books I was reading, and all the content I was consuming. I was starting to feel like it all sounded the same and like I already knew it all. Everything felt redundant, and, as much as I hate to admit it, I felt like I was "beyond" it all. Like I'd already learned it all. Like I needed something more.
But on a cognitive level, I knew these people I was following had something they could teach me. Because their lives and their businesses were so far beyond where I was. But I couldn't get over the feelings of boredom and redundancy. So I turned everyone off for a little while.
Not too long after, though, as I started to step into bigger things and expand in my business and in my life, I started returning to all the voices I had silenced, hoping maybe they'd "up-leveled" their messages... (hello ego, amirite? LOL) And what I found when I did that was that the things I was initially finding myself bored with and the things that had started sounding redundant, were suddenly hitting me in a new and different way. What I realized is that sometimes you don't need new strategies and new tactics and new mindset tips... sometimes, you need to apply what you've already learned in newer, bigger ways.
The problem wasn't the content I was consuming. The problem was me. I had let myself get stuck. When I pushed myself to grow, the ways I was able to apply the things I was learned grew right along with me.
