No matter how much we consciously want to focus on a task, subconscious resistance can get in the way, making us distracted and unproductive.
Part of us might be resisting tasks because of anxiety about the quality of what we produce, if we can get enough done, how others will receive our efforts, and whether we will be happy with the end result, to name just a few common concerns.
Last week, I had a task that I needed to complete but I was aware how unsettled my mind was when I sat down to work. To combat the distraction, I created a brand new tapping process to keep me on track.
Not only did it work then, but I have used it every time I have sat down to work since coming up with it.
This week in the podcast I share exactly what I did, and how you can improve your own productivity just by drawing a few circles.

When we are working on our resistance to taking a particular action, we often end up referring to the past to see if we can identify the roots of our reluctance in not wanting to repeat past mistakes or struggles.
When we are working on healing and creating transformation in our lives, we spend much time looking backwards.
The Buddhist concept of the “monkey mind” describes our human tendency to get restless, distracted, or confused.
One of the most common forms of resistance people encounter when doing any sort of deep transformational work (tapping included) is the fear of what will be uncovered.
