I lost 3 hours doing nothing


You’re Not Lazy.
You’re Stuck in a Pattern.

Terrie Power Coaching

I lost three hours and couldn’t tell you what I did.

Laptop open. Notes everywhere.
It looked like I was working.

I wasn’t.

I told myself I needed more discipline.

That wasn’t it.

Here’s what I see all the time (in myself too):

When something feels uncomfortable or unclear…
we don’t stop.

We shift.

  • research instead of decide
  • plan instead of act
  • stay busy instead of move forward

It looks productive.

It’s not.

Next time you feel stuck, try this:

Where do I feel pressure?
What am I doing instead?
What am I trying not to feel?
What’s one step I can take anyway?

Just one.

I wrote more about this here: Why You Can’t Follow Through (And What Your Enneagram Has to Do With It)

If you want to understand your pattern, start with the Free Enneagram Assessment.

If you want to actually change it, that’s what we’ll do inside the cohort (starts April 14).

You’re not inconsistent.

You just haven’t named the pattern yet.

Let’s name the pattern together. Reach out and let me know what your patterns are. I read every email.

Find the joy in the hard Terrie Power Coaching … Joy in a hard world The world feels heavy right now. There are things happening that scare us. News that unsettles us. Economic shifts. Health concerns. Violence. Division. So much uncertainty that it can feel irresponsible to even talk about joy or ambition. And yet, we are still here. Still building. Still trying to live intentionally. I’ve been thinking about joy. Not the kind that waits at the finish line. The kind that lives inside the...

Our personality has patterns Terrie Power Coaching … The Moment That Made Me Question Hustle Years ago, I sat in a room listening to someone talk about hustle. Block every minute.Sacrifice more.Push harder. Everyone around me was nodding. I remember my chest tightening. And I had this quiet thought that stuck around longer than I expected. Maybe I just don’t want it badly enough. That thought followed me for years. Because I wanted to be disciplined. I showed up. I cared. I built things...
