Part II: Letting Go Let’s face it… LETTING GO IS HARD!! If it were easy, you would have done so a LONG TIME AGO (Right?) Just because letting go is hard doesn’t mean that it’s not worth it…YOU ARE WORTH IT!! (Side Note: If holding on to your pain was working for you, wouldn’t you feel better by now?) Common sense warns us not to hold on to dangerous things, like bombs, explosives, fire, and toxic chemicals… Unfortunately, our emotions do quite the opposite!! “Instead of letting go of the pain, memories, disappointments, and betrayals, we store them up like armor for a battle...“ Seeking to protect ourselves from future threats of harm, we live behind walls of frustration, resentment, irritability, defensiveness, and anxiety—engulfed in this never-ending cycle… hurting the people who love us the most!! Oh, the AGONY of holding on to hurts!! Letting Go is about TAKING YOUR POWER BACK!! Letting Go is about CHANGING the MINDSETS that have KEPT YOU STUCK. Letting Go is about EMBRACING the FREEDOM you have MAKE NEW, DIFFERENT, & BETTER CHOICES. Are you ready now to Let Go? (I sure hope so 😊) Life Coaching Tip #2: Refuse to Continue Blaming Others for where You are in Life Today! Ouch…That hurts! Blaming others KEEPS THEM IN POWER… It says, “I have NO CONTROL over my life, my choices, my future…” (This keeps you in the position of a helpless VICTIM) Letting Go means that I choose to say: “Yes, that did hurt me… Yes, I do wish that it never happened… Yes, they were wrong for doing that to me… BUT… I HAVE THE POWER TO CHOOSE HOW I DEAL WITH THE PAIN OF WHAT HAPPENED TO ME!!” “I cannot control what happened to me, but I CAN CONTROL how I CHOOSE to DEAL WITH IT!!” “I will heal from my pain in HEALTHY WAYS—WAYS that HELP ME to MOVE FORWARD!” (This puts YOU in the position of a POWERFUL VICTOR…A SURVIVOR!!) Whew!! Letting Go is INTENSE, but remember, YOU’RE WORTH IT... YOUR LIFE IS WORTH IT!! CONGRATULATIONS!!
