The Truth About Letting Go

What are you willing to say a gracious goodbye to in order to live your most exceptional life? The truth is that we will continuously experience cycles of receiving then becoming attached to what we received then being challenged to let it go when the chapter is over. Letting go can be hard depending upon the degree to which you are attached to something or someone. There are times when it is better to let go because it is no longer serving you in the best way. Something no longer serving you can imply that it is no longer fruitful, no longer bringing goodness to your life, no longer healthy for your well-being, and causes energy deficits. You have the ability to consciously rewire your relationship with letting go by becoming friends with it. Better yet, you can make complete peace with the fact that it is a natural life cycle.

Here’s the thing, you aspire to live your best life existing as your greatest self and some of the things you are holding onto are hindering it. You know instinctively when you are being internally provoked to let go. It is an inner-knowing that you can only try to subdue for so long until an external event happens that forces you to make the decision. Another truth about letting go is that it is a faith walk. It is a true test of your faith when you are called to let something go. It is a true test of your inner endurance to navigate the uncertainty that comes after you let go. There are many reasons we are moved to let go, but one of the most plausible reasons is that the purpose is for it to launch us into a new chapter. You are encouraged to go inward and reflect on the relationships, beliefs, practices, places, items, foods, and so forth - you are compelled to release. Truth is, your next best chapter is on the other side of letting go.
