Growth Cycle

When you work on expanding your world there are periods of growth and periods of stagnation.  During these 'flat spots' it feels like nothing is happening and you aren't moving...  

The role of this stagnation period is very important though.  It is the time you need to process your growth consciously and/or subconsciously, to see what your new reality feels like, to walk in your new shoes.  Sometimes it is simply time to recoup, your resting period so to speak.  Other times yet it feels like a maturation process needs to take place before you can start your new growth spurt, even though you may not understand it or know what is going on.

Part of growing is this time of 'no-growth'.  Be good to yourself when you are in that stage.  It is part of your growth process.  Embrace it as such.  :)
