There is always a way

 
Even in the Brazilian jungle when local people tell you they don't know where to go,


There is always a way ! ! !
I have joined  Z - - - - lessons. A friend, let’s call her Astrid, is organizing them in Rio. Z -- - - is not a unique concept and moneywise, it is very successful. Astrid was explaining to the participants how
Z - - - - was created. Its creator, who is a dancer and a choreographer, came one day to a dance lesson having forgotten his professional MP3. He still had to lead the session as the participants were expecting it. He had with him his personal MP3 filled with Latin-American titles. He decided to play them and create aerobics and South American dance steps. His students loved that and Z - - - - was born. Today Z - - - - has spread throughout the world very successfully.
The starting point of this lucrative business has been a moment when the frame and content of what was expected had been missing and had left a person without pre written scenario. Blankness. This is a situation where you feel you have nothing you can hold on to. Rings a bell ?
Panic and fear may invite themselves quickly. And then ? What can happen ? Some of us will probably feel overwhelmed and melt with a feeling of incapacity, uselessness. They may stay in that state.
What will follow won’t be the best and may well generate a feeling of low self-esteem :
negative anchoring.
Those of us who have the reaction of leaving behind that overwhelming fear and use the resources they have with / in them at that moment, can explore new and constructive options. They will build a positive and helpful experience.
In such a situation either social or professional, the point is about turning what looks like a disaster into a new opening and sometimes a bigger success.
What is the key ? Chance or hazard ? I do not believe much in those ideas.
Let’s go back to the Z- - - - creator. What had he to use ? His dancing and teaching skills and his personal MP3. That was the key of his success. He moved on from the state of fear that freezes everything. He tried.
In such a situation, the major points are:
Recognizing our state of mind: it is OK to feel that fear. Doing so, you can keep a very much needed positive energy level and allow your brain to stay in action and be creative in regard of resources to assess and new options to explore.
Abandoning the belief that tells you that you are lost and there is nothing you can do. If you accept to let go of that belief, you create the space to step back and look for the resources you have:
what, who, when, where, how ?
Can you recall a situation where you felt totally stuck ?
What happened ?
What resources could you have made use of then ?
The truth is that any of us can always make it.
 
Wishing you a fabulous day !
