You Have to Let Go to Hold On!
Quote of the Day:
"We must be willing to let go of the life we planned to have the life that is waiting for us." Joseph Campbell
Meaning of the Quote:
If we hold on to the life we planned for ourselves, we will not be able grab on to the life that we can really live.
Discussion of the Quote:
Sometimes we cling on too tight to the lives we planned for ourselves instead of letting go and stepping into the lives that await us. It is important that we should loosen our hold and be willing to give up the lives we are living so that we can live the lives that are waiting for us.
Additionally, we have to understand the process of letting go. If somethings are not serving our purposes, we have to be willing to let them go. It is the same with our lives if they are not making us happy and fulfilled then it is time to try something new. When our hands are closed around something, it prevents us from opening our hands to receive something else. We must first let go of what we hold in our hands so that we are empty-handed to receive something in place of what we hold now.
Final Thoughts:
We have to know when it is time to let go of what we have planned and are holding on to figuratively in our hands. Fear of the unknown can keep us hanging on longer than we should. We are afraid of getting out of our comfort zones. So we cling on to the comfortable and the familiar.
Furthermore, we often like to stick with what we know and planned instead of letting go and stepping into something more wonderful that is waiting for us.
I appreciate your time, comments and likes.
To our success

Comfortable, we like to be comfortable and dislike change. But that is what WA is all about for 95% of us - it is a change from what we were used to, and it has to be embraced to work.

Most times we are afraid to let go of what we have even if it is not serving our purpose just because we are afraid. Fear of the unknown makes us cling to whatever little we have. As long as we are holding on to that little, we are blinded to the great things that await us.

Thank you for your post, Nichola.
Fear is just False Evidence Appearing
Real.
Most fears people experienced did not
happen... they were just all in their minds.
Always look into your heart, always and if
you find nothing wrong there, why worry
about anything?
Thus, stop thinking about the so-called
fear and start to take action so you can
overcome the fear.
Furthermore, when your conscience is
clear and nothing to hide, you have
nothing to fear.
It is heavenly!
Thank you once again, my dear Nichola.
God will never leave us nor forsake us
and that alone can make us strong and
fearless.

For us to move forward, we need to let go of the things that are holding us back from progress

Looking at it, it can always be good to have a plan, even better to work that plan and even better to build adaptability into that plan.
I guess for me being adaptable, letting go when neccessary can be one of the keys to level up any journey.
