“Growth is uncomfortable because you’ve never been here before. You’ve never seen this version of you. So give yourself a little grace and breathe through it.” ~Kristin Lohr
Part of the real beauty of life is that it’s unpredictable. Nothing is permanent, everything changes, and of course, a lot of things can happen that will transform who you are and have an impact on your life.
Of course, life will bring many challenges.
I believe, we need to develop the habit of looking at whatever happens through a positive mindset, we’ll likely cope with future crises in a different way and view them from a different perspective. We will accept instead or resisting.
I am big fan of Deepak’s Chopra’s The 7 Laws of Spiritual Success. He dedicates one complete chapter (Law #4) to how we need to receive with open arms what happens to us, because if we fight and resist it, we are generating a lot of turbulence in our minds and body
He explains that we might want things to be different in the future, but in the present moment we need to accept things as they are.
“We do not heal the past by dwelling there; we heal the past by living fully in the present.” ~Marianne Williamson
I’ve struggled with it.
I’ve struggled with moving on from my past. I’ve struggled with ridding myself of guilt, shame, and grief. I’ve struggled with freeing myself from mistakes, past relationships, and worries about the future.
I have to accept things as they are; Yes, acceptance is a choice—a hard one most definitely, but a choice nonetheless.
There are two ways out of a problem: accept what’s happening, see the positive, and choose a peaceful state of mind; or fight against it, be miserable, and struggle against the universe.
Tony Robbins said, “Where focus grows, energy flows.” Focus on the wanted, not the unwanted.
