Finding Inspiration To Get Out of A Rut

By: Bruna Bacellio

A routine is a magical thing in a performance such as ice skating. In everyday life, it can suck the proverbial soul out of you. If you find yourself in a rut, you need to break the routine.

If you are in the dull drums, getting things moving again is rarely about one big event. Instead, it is more about finding little things to break your daily habit. You will be surprised how even small things can do the trick.

Being in a rut is like living in a glass bubble. Life goes on all around you, but you really don’t notice it. Instead, you are blindfolded to your daily repetition and task. You need to wake up and see things. If you do, you will be surprised by everything happening.

If there probably isn’t going to be a major event to shake you up, how do you break your routine. I am glad you asked. It is all up to you, but here are some easy steps to consider taking.

1. When you wake up, take inspiration in the fact you have a full day to do something great.

2. Sign up for lessons to learn how to play an instrument.

3. Take a long, hot bath.

4. Plan out a vacation, even if it will be a bit before you can go.

5. Read an old diary.

6. Make a list of 10 things you find embarrassing. Now go do them.

7. Call a brother or sister to reminisce and laugh.

8. In the shower, clear you mind and enjoy the hot water.

9. Try a food you have never had before.

10. If you are eating out, focus on the taste of the food, not the discussion at the table.

11. Learn to meditate.

12. Hold a wine tasting party.

13. Realize you can do it if you want to.

14. Hey, even George Bush became president. If he can, what can you accomplish?

15. Volunteer for anything.

16. Read a poem.

17. Watch the movie “Rudy”, even if you hate sports.

18. Watch the movie “March of the Penguins” even if…well, you hate penguins.

19. Go to a sporting event.

As you can see, getting out of a rut is often about doing the little things. Having a giant epiphany is a pretty rare event, so focus on the things around you and enjoy.
