Letting go of the old is one of the toughest things in the world for most homo sapiens. Letting go of old worn-out habits, old ineffective thought patterns, old routines that just don't fit anymore, old impressions of places or individuals that are now no longer useful, old feelings that are emotional scars which will not heal and get in the way of progress, are all things that most people when reading of them nod their heads and agree should be disposed of like an old ratty security blanket from adolescence. Yet, how few of those folks truly would throw away or learn past these things! Most would just continue holding on to them.
There are even some sad changes that we take for granted : if we have a pet dog we know that one day that dog will grow old and die.
But there are other norms that we adhere to with a quiet desperateness, and anything that is threatening to modify them we feel threatens us. The thing of it really is, all of these changes have to do with things that are within us. They could be embodied in outward circumstances, for example our careers or homes, but even then they have to do with what we feel we are as a soul, a personality.
It is this fear of being wrong that forestalls us, most of the time, from letting go of the old. Too many times, when we are about to let go of the old we feel that we are admitting to having been wrong ( and the assumption that there's something shameful about being wrong is itself a negative, false assumption ). You see, we feel as if we have invested just way too much time and energy to learn and figure out what we believe we have . We have , therefore , an overpoweringly powerful emotional investment in what we think we know--our techniques of doing stuff, our priorities, our beliefs, our feelings about people and places and things.
But the ego forgets that change is the only constant in life. It forgets that the past is dead ; only the here and now is real. We will be able to let go of the old when we find that it's no longer helpful, or it gets in the way of a new level of feat, or our circumstances have changed. It is natural for us to let go of the old ; for as kids we do so with ease. But as we age, we become a bit more and a little more predicted to have permanent understanding of stuff. Instead, we will be able to and must learn how to take pride in being courageous about screwing up, changing, seeing a new viewpoint, letting go of the old, and reveling in the endless journey the end of which is not an arrival but an evolution into ever-new possibilities.
[**] one that I've found to work outstandingly well for me is the Sedona Method. It is an easy and easy-to-learn technique that may work for anyone. You learn how to tap your natural ability to let go of uncomfortable and undesired feelings on the spot.
When you wish to buy the Sedona Method course, check out a review to approve that it's what you are seeking. I discovered from a Sedona Method review that it is unique is in its universal applicability. You simply need to test the list of conditions that may receive benefit from this one straightforward, yet forceful, tool that are mentioned on the site.
These are some other sites I currently enjoy reading. All of the best!
