Help With Models/Thought Work

Hi There!

I have been in TFC for a few months and have been working my way through the various amazing resources. I can see how helpful and valuable Models are but I can’t seem to get myself to do them. Are there any tips on how to start small, build up a practice with these? I’ve watched the Model Workshop and Harness Your Hormones, so I feel like I have a general understanding but I seem to be stuck when it comes to actually doing them. Thank you in advance!

Answer:

We are so glad to have you here, and to hear that you have found the resources helpful! I love that you asked how to build a practice using the Model because it implies that you are practicing how to use it…First, I think it would be helpful to identify why you’re feeling resistance toward doing them. When you put some words to this, we can create a clear road map for how to create a sustainable practice for you taking into account the specific reasons it feels hard for you. Take some time to list out reasons you feel stuck, and when you’re ready to get more coaching on some of them, bring back what you discover in a follow-up post titled, “Help with models/thought work pt. 2”.
