Stuck? Do Something Different | Reporting From Costa Rica | Jay Uecker, D.C.


I'm reporting to you from my hammock in Pirate's Cove in Drake's Bay, on the South Pacific side of Costa Rica. What I want to say is, do something different. What do I mean by do something different? There might be times in your life when you feel stuck, where you feels yourself going from A to B to C to D, A to B to C to D, A to B to C to D, over and over again. It's natural as life progresses for that to get frustrating at some point. That frustration that's a sign of growth trying to happen. That's a natural part of the healing process.

You've heard it said that one definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. What happens is that we are feeling and doing and thinking the same thing. If we want to make change we've got to feel and do and think something new. My suggestion in this case, considering I'm in Costa Rica, is do something different.

I'm kind of like a Hobbit. If you've ever watched Lord of the Rings or read those books you know that Hobbits don't like to leave the Shire. They don't like adventure. In some ways I've been like that in my life. I don't like change to happen. I don't like things to get me out of my comfort zone. But this past year I've been racking up a lot of change points. You who know me know that I've gotten married and some of you may or may not know that my wife is like 5 months pregnant now. So lots of change coming.

Here I am in costa rica and we are having a whole slew of new experiences meeting a whole slew of new people and I have no doubt that I've gone from A to B to C to D, A to B to C to D, A to B to C to D, and we added a whole bunch of letters after that now coming to Costa Rica. A to B to C to D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K maybe. Like I said, I'm sort of putting money in the change bank. I have no doubt that experiencing this new place and getting out of my rut and meeting these new people is going to have a lasting effect on my life in some way. So I'm happy for that and grateful for that.

I just wanted to share a little bit of my experience here with you and I look forward to seeing you all and I look forward to helping you express more life when I come back to the states. Adios.
