Let’s understand
the dictionary meaning of “Let Go”
·
to stop holding something
·
to stop thinking about or being angry about the past or
something that happened in the past
“To Let Go”
does not mean “To get rid of”. “To Let Go” means “To let be”. When we “let
be” with compassion, things come and go on their own.
“Letting Go”
is one of the hardest things to figure out in life. As our emotions usually
cloud our logic, and because our feelings make it harder for us to concentrate,
it seems like the art of letting go can be confusing and complicated.
Signs that Tell Us, It's Time to “Let Go”:
·
Staying in it always makes us feel broken, depressed, and
frustrated
·
We justify that it’s worth holding on when it’s really not
·
We refuse to acknowledge the present because it hurts too much
·
We have already exhausted all our efforts but everything stays
the same
Ways to “Let Go”:
· Learn to Forgive: Resentment and unwillingness to forgive will keep us locked in
the past and prevent us from moving forward with our life.
Remember: When we forgive, we aren’t doing it for the other
person; we are doing it for ourselves. If for no other reason than that,
forgive and Let Go.
· Remove our clutter: Letting go of these stress-inducing thought patterns and
lifestyle features isn't easy, but it may be easier than we think.
And importantly, it can be addictive, once we start letting go
of some of the stressors in our life, it becomes easier to let go of more.
· Let Go of grudges: Releasing grudges, negative perspectives, toxic relationships,
and other vessels of negativity in our life may feel difficult at first, but
once we have started to release your grip, letting go becomes increasingly
easier.
· Drop Negative Attitudes about ourselves: Make a list of our personal accomplishments,
even the small ones, and add to it daily. We will have to let go of a little
discontentment to make space for this self-satisfaction. Let’s accept and
love ourselves as we are and keep moving forward. If we want to fly, we have to
give up what weighs us down.
To heal, we must let
go of our fear of letting go. Letting go doesn't mean that we don't
care about someone anymore. It's just realizing that the only person we really
have control over is ourselves.
Letting go means to come to the realization
that some people are a part of our history, but not a part of our destiny.
Cry. Forgive. Learn.
Move on. Let our tears water the seeds of our future happiness!
If we let go
a little, we will have a little peace. If we let go a lot, we will have
a lot of peace.
If we have peace, then we have an opportunity to identify our “Purpose of Life” and chase the same.
