Welcome back to part 5 in our series of Putting your dreams into action: Overcoming Obstacles.
Join me on a quick demolition tour and talk in my video below or scroll to the main points below the video.
Remember Every Obstacle is and Opportunity
Cindy Georgakas
When we get started on our goals, we are most excited to get the ball rolling and we start out with a lot of vim and vigor. Adrenaline seems to fuel us and it’s easy to be motivated in staying the course. It’s smooth sailing until an obstacle arises and throws us off kilter. At one point or another we will encounter obstacles.
So what do we do when that happens? It often depends on how committed we are to whatever it is we want to achieve and how much “skin we have in the game”. Our skin is our biggest organ and when we value something and have some investment in it, we tend to get behind it and back it. Even when we do, we will still have things that get in the way which are opportunities to rise to the occasion, be patient with ourselves and stay the course.
Tearing out the old
Cindy Georgakas
Start over with a clean slate
Dream, plan, commit, flow!
When you notice you are off track here’s a list of what to do to reignite your spark:
- Breathe
- Go with the Flow
- Ask what you need now
- What is the lesson or is it trying to teach you
- Get Support and redirect and reignite your energy
Have a wonderful week and I’ll look forward to seeing you for our next series on Support and Affirmations next Monday. I would love it if you would be so kind to subscribe to my Youtube channel if you are inclined. Thanks so much.
Blessings of Love,
๐๐๐๐๐

Long time no see! How have you been?
Did you write and I missed it? I thought i was all caught up.. ? ๐ฑ
Im actually way behind on so much and great, thanks.. Loving managing this project and my amazing crew here …. really fun so far.. throwing crap out and making space.. How about you? Getting any rest?
You missed quite many I guess!๐
Oh wow! Seems like you are having lots of fun! It’s quite relaxing these days. I am doing good too
I did? Nahhhhh just one?
I’ll go look again. hahahah.
I’m on adrenaline right now really.. it’s that old adage… ask a busy person to do something..and they will do but I’m obvi behind. and then there’s Harsh… hahahahah Hello? ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Oh i’m soooo glad you’re finally able to relax! ๐๐๐
Nah! Minimum of 4 I guess๐คฃ
Ohh wow! Harsh???? Haven’t been in contact for long. Quite happy these days as they are pretty relaxing๐๐
lordy.. lmk if I’m caught up… not sure how that happened but barely know my name at the moment.. ha “Yay you” hahaha.
I know right… he never writes and I give him a bad time. he says in a text “how are you?” and I say “read my blog”. hahahaha.. he;s good tho.. busy.
yay to relaxing! ๐๐ well deserved.
Hahahaha! It’s cool though. He is quite a busy bee! He deserves a hard time for absence. Thanks a ton!โค
hahahah i know right.. we can’t let them off the hook then i don’t hear from him for awhile. he’s always on insta. deserves if fo sho. haha.. of course. ๐๐๐๐
You should scold him up for being on Instagram and not responding to you๐คฃ
he responds just not on the blog unless I hit him over the head.. lol .. ๐คฃ๐คฃ with a rock. ha
I think sheโs on drugs to be honest. Itโs illegal to be so motivated
Drugs aren’t that good I guess

๐ What 3DLife has Taught Me is This EveryOne; it’s Taught Me That “Visions, Goals, Objectives” ARE Pointless, Being Relics of a Conditioned UpBringing that Keeps Us Firmly Placed in The Past EveryBody…basically I Continue to Live In The Past when ‘Doing Things The Way They Have ALWAYS Been Done’ totally Ignoring Kids who Say “That’s Just DUMB!!!

Hey Yernasia,
I donโt see it one of the other all or nothing do you? I think itโs the meta-methodology and how people approach things that make a huge difference in life.
Thanks for sharing that and youโre inside
I do love his work and the book.

Amazing, I am so glad actually that I came across this post!
Thanks a lot for sharing your wisdom with us here! ๐๐
Well, how are you these days?
Thank you for this writing as well as motivation I needed! I feel like I end up giving up when obstacles come my way, or shut down I mean, but Iโm trying to become a better version of myself.. so this is really helpful!! ๐

So many layers of life are unfolding and asking for our attention continually, so much that we are called to contribute to – but somethings gotta give! – like you say, I agree with you. I am so thrilled for you having these new spaces created as your home! One thing at a time, one day at a time, we keep going ๐ Always a pleasure to see you and hear you, I feel like I get to meet you without leaving my home!!
Thank you for inviting us into your space and your heart. ๐ Your stripped walls brought back a few remodeling memories. You are so calm in the midst of it. It will be beautiful! Best wishes on a smooth project. I appreciate your “reignite your spark” list. Most helpful on a Monday!
Such a captivating post โฃ๏ธ

Thanks so much Ritish.. such a daily job right! ๐๐๐๐
good advice about not walking away from obstacles – and the remodel looks so exciting, cindy – it was nice to see the current progress
and light and blessings to you too!!
Oh thanks Dear Yvette! So glad you liked it my friend. It really is very exciting. Oh so glad… you’ll see more as we move along knowing me.. lol. Thanks so much for the love and light and yep got you out of spam… again.. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
PS
loved this takeaway too:
Dream, plan, commit, flow!
Awww thanks.. here you are in spam.. haha. oh so glad you did!
Thanks Yvette!! ๐
Wonderful post, Cindy! For me, the most important part of the spark conversation is the realization that everyoneโs spark can be reignited, as you write. Spark is not a static concept, which, sometimes we forget. Love this post, so empowering! โค๏ธโค๏ธ
Thanks Jeff and that is the gift of writing and all creative endeavors I so agree!
Thanks for your insight and spark always my friend! ๐๐
Youโre most welcome, Cindy! Always. Have a gorgeous rest of your week! ๐๐
I will thanks and you do the same!! ๐๐
Great talk Cindy. Very motivating. All the best with the remodel.
Oh so glad you liked it Sadje! Thanks so much! It’s going great at the moment! ๐
How lovely. Youโre welcome ๐

It’s said that if there is no obstacles on a path, that path probably is not the correct one. You’re right, Cindy, commitment is the most important factor. I’ll remember your five-point formula, so motivating and inspiring! Have a great week ahead. Namaste ๐๐๐
Oh this is such a good add on to my post KK. Thank you as it helps me remember that as well. We remember, we forget, we remember and friends help so bows to you. Glad you are liking the series and happy you’re finding it motivating and inspiring my friend! ๐๐๐
I really like the series. You’re welcome, Cindy ๐๐
Really a great post, My Dear!! Loved it!!! ๐๐๐น
Thank you so much Dearest Chuck! I’m sooo glad! ๐
Obstacles are what prevents most people from realizing their dreams. They provide an easy excuse to quit. Your tips are excellent. ๐คโค๏ธ๐
Indeed so true Scott.
Short and sweet for sure but important and your words always mean so much. Thank you so much! ๐๐๐
Cindy, thank you so much for inviting us into your space. Such an inspiring talk. Very profound. All the very best with the remodelling. A wonderful post.
Oh you’re so welcome and thanks for taking time to share KAmal. I’m so glad you enjoyed it and thanks a lot.. It’s fun so far but we know that too will change.. lol ๐
Yes everything will change Cindy though in the beginning we resist change. You are always welcome dear. xxxxx

Hi Cindy,
How exciting to see your renovation in progress! I can’t wait to see the final results.
I love the video, and specially the message! Sometimes it is hard to keep going, or to even get started.
Blessings to you!
Thanks tons Ana Star! I am thrilled beyond and having fun with the process.. thanks so much. Glad you enjoyed the message.. You are so right about that.. Thanks for the blessings and more to you! ๐๐
Inspiring and empowering post Cindy. Love your words of wisdom on reigniting the spark.
Oh thanks so much Sowmya! happy to hear my friend! ๐๐๐๐
Timely and sage advice, Cindy. I always look forward to the video portion of your posts–such a personal touch. ๐
Thank you so much Mike. i’m honored my friend, truly! ๐
What wise words. Sometimes it’s the plateaus that help take our routines to the next level. And wow, looks like everything’s coming along well with your construction works. Again, you inspire me to perhaps try video, even though I have a face for radio and a voice that wouldn’t even sound good on the phone. Keep this theme going, Cindy!
oh aren’t you kind Stuart and I am sooo laughing right now … YES! the remodel is going great.. soooo exciting. I’m happy to hear I inspire you but honey, i think this is quite the reverse. do you know how many i asked if they could photoshop my wrinkles out and they said only on stills. Now i could have done the video over but I’m a one and done girl.. oh well it works with my published post at MastacadoresUsa coming out call A Wrinkle in Time … ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ. You r’e the best and I appreciate you! thanks a lot! ๐๐๐๐
Sorry, Cindy. Your luck ran out. I’m back, For some reason I couldn’t reply to your reply. Issues with my computer I think.
aww thanks.. darn, i can’t see any new posts on your site.. who knows whose computer it is” ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Dear, it was so motivating.
Thank you for the post. โค๐
Oh thank you sooo very much!! ๐๐๐

A great post. Love your video. Looks like your remodel is coming along well. We need to be like the GPS, when I go the wrong way. It just resets and takes me from there to my goal!
Thank you so much Dwight! So happy to hear and yes so far so good. I love that analogy. I might have to use that in my next talk. You should make a post on it! ๐
You are welcome! Seems I did do one on the GPS awhile back.
oh I think you did come to think about it. ๐
